Apex Hotels recently unveiled its £12 million program to refurbish its existing portfolio of contemporary hotels.
The group’s refurbishment plan starts with three of its Edinburgh Hotels – the Grassmarket, Haymarket, and Waterloo Place.
The renovation is already underway at Apex Grassmarket Hotel with the conference and events facilities being upgraded.
In other locations, the Apex City Quay Hotel & Spa in Dundee is undergoing a full bedroom overhaul. Its public areas, along with the gym and spa, will also be reinvented as part of the investment.
Furthermore, the Apex City of London Hotel will transform their existing bedrooms to better accommodate their valued guests. While the Apex Temple Court Hotel will continue its £6 mn refurbishment which includes a 20-bedroom expansion.
Angela Vickers, CEO of Apex Hotels Limited said: “Our strong track record in the four-star market can only be achieved through investment in our existing portfolio, as well as providing excellent customer service and brand standards.”
“We demonstrated our commitment to providing the best possible facilities for our guests by investing £48.5 million in the brand-new Apex City of Bath Hotel, which opened just months ago. Carrying out an additional £12 million of refurbishment work on our existing properties over the next year goes even further in terms of improving facilities for our guests – and ensuring they receive the warmer welcome that Apex Hotels is known for.”
“As well as bedroom refurbishments for Apex City of London Hotel, Apex Temple Court Hotel, Apex City Quay Hotel & Spa in Dundee and Apex Haymarket, we’re also focusing on improvements to conference and events facilities at Grassmarket and Waterloo Place in Edinburgh as well as Dundee.”
The announcement came shortly after the opening of the group’s tenth property in the UK, the £48.5 mn Apex City Bath Hotel, and the completion of a £1.5 mn refurbishment project at the Apex City of London Hotel.
Apex Hotels is one of the UK’s leading independent operators of four-star contemporary hotels. Headquartered in Edinburgh, the group operates ten hotels in London, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Dundee, and Bath.
