The Quest hotel on Bultje Street has been listed for sale on behalf of the private investors by Findex Financial Advisors.

The CBRE Hotels team has appointed Raymond Tran and Tom Gibson to market the serviced apartment hotel which opened in 2011.

The hotel is situated on a 2,029 square metre landholding and is subject to a long-term lease under the national Quest branding.

Mr Tran said Quest's quality brand offering and substantial, long-term lease would be a considerable drawcard for investors.

"The property is one of the leading accommodation offerings in Dubbo and is one of the city's few nationally branded hotels," Mr Tran noted.
