Elberts For Sale

While driving back from Grasshoppers nursery this afternoon, I noticed a For Sale sign on the side of Elberts. It says it's for sale due to relocation. Anyone know where they're moving to and when?

Does that mean they're consolidating at the hotel?

I thought Elberts was linked with The Hertford House, not the Master's House?

Elbert's and The Hertford House are both owned by Nick Shipton. The Master's House is a completely different operation.

The consolidation theory is pure conjecture on my part

The owners gained planning permission to turn the building into flats some time ago. I think with Deco taking a lot of their trade they have decided to move elberts to the basement of the Hertford House Hotel. Elberts was quite big and held about 600 while the basement at the hotel is quite small about 100 with a very small bar. I think it will have a boutique feel about it small and intimate. The other thing is I thought the Hotel was over 21's and elberts is definately a lot younger and usually filled with Haileybury sixth formers. Elberts will have it's last night on New Years eve so I expect they are working on the Hotel basement already.
