- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In preparation of the financial statements, the directors have made an assessment of the company's ability to continue as a going concern and are satisfied that the hotel is in a position to generate surplus. The going concern assessment period for the financial statements is for the 12 months from date of approval of the balance sheet. The hotel continues to produce updated forecasts together with plans for action and cash flows to the parent company. These forecasts cover both the immediate year and five years ahead. Scenario planning is updated and shared monthly with the parent company.”
Significant events
- “Edgbaston Park Hotel and Conference Centre Limited closed 2024-25 with ",2m total revenue (+£49k YoY). Performance softened from January amid market headwinds. Peter Scott House contributed 11% revenue and C&E achieved £3.9m. Guest ratings averaged 4.45 (NPS 63) showing growth against the prior year and up on the target for the year.”
- “Sustainability advanced significantly with the awarding of B Corp certification, with solid team engagement growth and training progress.”
- “Major repairs and improvement expenditure during the year totalled £313k, including refurbishment and decoration of the property, upgrades to IT infrastructure, and replacement of lifts.”
- “The hotel's main challenge remains staff recruitment and the increase in wages and expenses. Operational departments were heavily reliant on agency staff to assist in service delivery.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
