“We are absolutely thrilled to be opening Scotland’s first Staybridge Suites in Dundee. Designed for the modern traveller, we have created a hotel where our guests can stay in the style of room that suits them best, perfect for business and family travellers alike,” said Dianna Bruce, Manager at Staybridge Suites Dundee.
With 85 single-bedroom and studio suites, the hotel sits inside an abandoned linen mill. The exposed brick ceilings and iron beams that have been kept intact in some of the suites immediately connect guests to the historic past of the building.
The lobby has been designed in a modern, industrial style to offer a chic social space to the visitors.
