From international brands arriving in Edinburgh and Glasgow, to a luxurious new retreat in the Highlands, here are some of Scotland’s newly opened (and soon to open) hotels.
1. Tribute Portfolio Hotel, Edinburgh
Planners recently approved the £50M project to transform the former Debenham's building on Princes Street into a 207-room Tribute Portfolio Hotel, complete with a spa, restaurant and rooftop bar. It is expected to be completed by 2024, so watch this space. Photo: ICA Photo: ICA
2. The Address Hotel, Glasgow
The Address Collective is a boutique Irish brand and the hotel is the company’s first Scottish location situated at the corner of West George Street and Renfield Street. The new four-star hotel, presented over eight floors, will feature 91 bedrooms alongside spa facilities and a gym, two restaurants and a bar, and is scheduled for handover in November. Dating back to circa 1896 the iconic building was designed by architect James Thomson and whilst the exterior façade will be retained, a complete interior refurbishment is being undertaken by Diverse Projects.
