AI Overview
Yes, hotels used to house asylum seekers in the UK are on government contracts with private companies
These contracts are managed by the Home Office and are part of the Asylum Accommodation and Support Services (AASC). While some hotels may be sub-contracted, the core responsibility for housing asylum seekers lies with these government-appointed suppliers
It's a private contractor, whatever AI tells you.The Royal Station Hotel in Hull is operating under a government contract to house asylum seekers, not for general tourism. This contract was awarded to Mears Group by the Home Office, which is responsible for managing asylum accommodation in the UK.
