Shiva Hotels has completed a refinancing of its soon to be launched Middle Eight hotel in Covent Garden, London. The refinance was completed by Alpha Real Capital LLP, the specialist manager of long income real assets, and Bank Leumi.

“We are delighted to have acquired the ground rent of this prestigious hotel from Shiva. The quality of the property and excellent location provides the Fund with confidence this asset will have a long-term future. We are excited to partner Shiva on this project and look forward to working with them,” said Dan Griffiths Transaction Director at Alpha.
