    The Midland hotel is for sale. Maybe you should buy it and you can get a room whenever you want for the pair of you.

    I was assuming a charismatic local entrepreneur would be snapping it up.










    I guess car washes are a hard thing to sell and create enough liquidity, hey....... :rolleyes:

    I wouldn’t even buy a 300k plus house in Bradford, so no chance with a 3m hotel.

    Do the Penningtons still own the midland. They bought it having sold the Rock & Heifer in Thornton

    No John sold The Midland Hotel and bought the old Mecca turning if into Penningtons where he brought over many 60s artists like Chuck Berry Jerry Lee Lewis and many more he then sold it in 2003 and it became The Town and Country Club.

    I don't remember that but if he was it would possibly have been around the time of Bob Martin/Dave Simpson I'd think.

    I doubt that. They're all amazing buildings but none of the Britannia hotels are actually kept or maintained well sadly.
