Super Break went into administration on August 1, along with parent company Malvern Group and sister brand Laterooms.com.

Super Break’s debts totalled £50 million, £46.6 million of which was owed to India-based Yes Bank.

The bank has been paid back £1.4 million, according to the most recent progress report.

Payments to preferential creditors (employees) of £61,653 have also been made.

“Based on current estimations, it is uncertain whether there will be a dividend to unsecured creditors,” the report stated.

There were more than 900 creditors, most of which were hotels.

Meanwhile, the assets for sister brand Late Rooms, including its brand name and social media accounts, have been sold for £750,000, according to a separate progress report for the former hotel booking site.
