Big spoiler for what happens AFTER the series this year...
That's not my understanding of it. After buying the Grosvenor he went on to buy another 2 local hotels and it was those 2 that he placed is a separate LLP, and it was this that went into administration

Incidentally The Grosvenor is ranked on TA as 64th out of 103 hotels in Torquay.... I think that tells you everything you need to know about the 38 that sit below it....

£1.2m being asked - wonder how much he owes?
I wondered that too. Google says 3 hotels owned by one company was sold owing 900k to mark (all 3 but no sale price ?)
In October someone bought the grosvenor from Mark for £1m but the other two hotels not yet sold??
The company mark owned all 3 hotels is currently being liquidated

So none the wiser!
That's not what I read. Two other hotels were owned by a company he owned. That went into receivership.

The Grosvenor was owned by him directly and he sold it.

Wonder if he bought a red Bentley?
