The Gleneagles Hotel in Scotland Unveils Major Refurbishment Plans

One of the world’s most famous golf resorts, The Gleneagles Hotel in Perthshire, Scotland has unveiled details of an extensive refurbishment programme that will see improvements and upgrades made throughout the property.

The multi-million pound refurbishment initiative represents a substantial investment from new owner, Ennismore, to make the most of the rich heritage, architecture and stunning setting for which Gleneagles is renowned.

“The Gleneagles Hotel is an incredible property and beloved brand,” said Ennismore Founder and CEO, Sharan Pasricha. “It is known the world over for its golf, but with 850 acres of beautiful Scottish countryside, there is the potential to do so much more with the hotel. We really want to showcase the unrivalled range of facilities – the glorious playground of country pursuits and activities – we offer on the estate. We’re approaching the refurbishment with bold and creative decisions while respecting the hotel’s history and building on its remarkable heritage. It’s an organic progression – evolution, not revolution – and will ensure the iconic Gleneagles brand remains synonymous with luxury, and the hotel maintains its position among the leading hotels of the world.”

The hotel is working with some of the country’s most celebrated designers – including David Collins Studio, Timorous Beasties, Macaulay Sinclair and Goddard Littlefair – to create designs and spaces that reflect Gleneagles’ distinctly Scottish identity, but with a contemporary feel.

Plans are in place to ensure disruption is kept to a minimum and the hotel will remain open throughout the refurbishment.

“When Gleneagles first opened its doors in 1924, it was dubbed as the ‘Palace in the Glens’ and our aim is to surpass these glory days. We look forward to introducing our guests to the new spaces and continuing to provide them with a five-star experience in a setting that is effortlessly stylish and luxurious,” added Sharan Pasricha.

Gleneagles is about 1 hour away from both Glasgow and Edinburgh.
