Hampton by Hilton Edinburgh West End
Edinburgh
Paving the way in the regeneration of Fountainbridge
Type
Hampton by Hilton
Status
Completed
We were approached in 2015 to internally reconfigure and deliver a consented hotel proposal within the Fountainbridge area of Edinburgh’s city centre. The original 2013 consent was for a 178-bed hotel. A significant redesign of the hotels internal layout was undertaken focusing primarily on floor plan efficiency including services, circulation & bedroom numbers. Within the same envelope and fundamentally within the existing planning consent a 228-bed Hampton by Hilton hotel has been achieved.
The site lies on a key arterial route at the intersection of Fountainbridge and Melvin Walk and is within short walking distance of key transport interchange Haymarket station. The hotel will form part of the wider regeneration of the former light industrial area of Fountainbridge. When completed the development will provide on-site meeting facilities, fitness suite and a standalone café/restaurant unit.
It is an honour to open the first Hampton by Hilton in Edinburgh. Scotland's capital city is one of the busiest conference destinations in the UK and second only to London for attracting international tourist visitors.
