The seven-storey hotel is located on Gdansk's Speicherinsel in the heart of the former Hanseatic city, around 2 kilometers from the main train station and in the immediate vicinity of the old town. The Baltic city has become a popular tourist destination: In 2023, the number of overnight stays rose to over 3 million, which corresponds to an average annual growth of around 7% since 2012, outperforming both Warsaw and Krakow.[2] Invesco Real Estate has extensive experience in the European hotel sector. The team of investment experts specializing in hotel real estate has a 17-year track record of investing more than €2 billion in the sector and currently manages 27 hotel investments under 16 brands in seven countries across Europe.

Tomas Picha, Senior Director - Investment Management, CEE, at Invesco Real Estate, said: "The Cloud One Gdansk property offers a long lease with a very attractive yield profile. This makes it a very attractive investment for our German client, which also further expands Invesco Real Estate's long-term track record for European hotel real estate. The continued growth in tourism and business travel in Gdansk underpins the investment case behind this acquisition." Michael Berchtold, Director - Fund Management, Invesco Real Estate, said: "The acquisition of Cloud One Gdansk is a strategic move for our client. The property meets all mandate requirements in terms of location, quality and tenant profile and offers a long-term lease with a strong tenant.
