Airport hotel unveils new £400k lounge

HILTON Edinburgh Airport has unveiled a new look after receiving a £400,000 refurbishment to replace its traditional ground floor food and beverage space with a single executive lounge.

The hotel has undergone extensive work to transform its lobby lounge area into an open space designed to be more conducive to both business and social gatherings.

General manager of the hotel, Michael Squire, said: "Our ground floor has been completely redesigned to allow guests, whether working alone or in small groups, to feel part of a larger social space.

"With this set-up people can have a level of privacy in an ultimately open environment."

Calum Ross, area general manager of Hilton Worldwide for central Scotland, added: "It is vital that we are still investing in our Scottish hotels and adapting the offering to meet the demands of the consumer."
