About this investor
Blackstone's private equity and real estate fund investments here include Haven, Warner Hotels, Village Hotels, Merlin Entertainments, iQ student housing, Mileway, The Arch Company and AirTrunk. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]
These are selected investments, rather than a complete portfolio or legal parent register. A fund, its investors, an acquisition vehicle and the manager's own corporate ownership can be different relationships. Each card retains the date and individual or collective stake definition. Merlin operates attractions including Alton Towers, Thorpe Park and LEGOLAND Windsor; this does not establish ownership of the LEGO toy brand. Mileway and The Arch Company are property investments with separately owned tenants. [9][10][11][12]
Each card names the entity invested in. Linked companies and brands can sit below that entity. Stakes use the source’s definition and date; disclosures are selected and do not give a complete portfolio or investor register. Read the investor methodology.

Fund investment
Merlin Entertainments consortium investment
Consortium investment with KIRKBI and CPP Investments

The consortium includes KIRKBI, Blackstone-managed funds and CPP Investments. A combined consortium interest is not an individual Blackstone stake. Merlin operates LEGOLAND attractions; that relationship does not establish Blackstone ownership of the LEGO toy brand or of every licensed character’s intellectual property.
Merlin Entertainments · Current attraction list, including UK theme parks, SEA LIFE, Madame Tussauds and London Eye
Accessed 9 Oct 2026
Fund investment
Mileway logistics property platform
Managed-fund investment; exact platform stake not verified
Ownership evidence checked ·
The 2022 recapitalisation and a 2026 company property disclosure support Blackstone fund involvement. Platform investment does not establish ownership of every individual property vehicle, and leasing a warehouse does not make its tenant a Blackstone-owned business.

Accessed 9 Oct 2026
Disclosed backing
The Arch Company property investment structure
Disclosed investment involvement; current split unresolved
Ownership evidence checked ·
The original transaction described an equal partnership with Telereal Trillium. The May 2026 privacy policy names TT CDR Assetco and BX CDR Holdco as JV entities and references Blackstone, but it is not a clear current shareholder table. The historical 50/50 split is not carried forward as a verified current stake. Tenant businesses have separate owners.
