Leonard Curtis confirm administration of Hashtag Hotels

30 August 2019

Neil Bennett and Andy John, of Leonard Curtis Limited, were appointed joint administrators of Hashtag Hotels Limited on 28th August 2019.

The London-headquartered firm was a hotel chain that rented out university accommodation - used by students in term time - to visitors throughout the summer months. It had 17 sites across the UK and employed 264 people.

The Company was placed into administration by its directors after it experienced financial difficulties. After seeking the appropriate professional advice, the joint administrators were appointed. Trading ceased immediately and all 264 employees were made redundant.

Leonard Curtis has appointed Evolve IS as its agent to manage ERA employee-related matters. It is supporting all employees to claim payments from the government’s Redundancy Payment Service.
