As part of an ongoing renovation program, the renowned 5-star Gleneagles Hotel in Perthshire, Scotland, is launching a multimillion dollar refurbishment of its guestrooms. Nestled in an 850-acre countryside estate one hour from Glasgow and Edinburgh, the luxury property offers an array of outdoor activities, award-winning golf, Michelin-starred cuisine and a spa.

Scottish designers Greyline, responsible for redesigning 36 of the hotel’s guestrooms last year, will redesign an additional 36 of its 232 guestrooms in the first quarter of 2015. New amenities will include bespoke carpets from Wilton Carpets; a collection of the finest soft furnishings and wall coverings from companies including Osborne & Little and Harlequin; and Heathfield designer light fittings. All 36 bedrooms will also be upgraded with the installation of new air conditioning systems.

“The main palette for the new bedroom schemes draws once again from the beautiful countryside that surrounds Gleneagles,” said Gavin Liddle, designer, Greylines. “The gorgeous indigenous colors of heather and silvery lichen-greens establish the hotel’s connection to its surroundings, enriched by colors essential to modern interior design such as silver, zinc, ivory and taupe. The bedrooms have a relaxing classic, contemporary feel, with luxurious velvets and textures, rich dark burr woods and opulent lighting. These combine carefully to evoke the elegance and glamor of the hotel’s 1920s heritage.”

This spring, the hotel also plans to launch a new 26,910-square-foot conference venue and tennis center, The Gleneagles Arena.
