New owner for Inverness Hotel

A famous Inverness hotel is going back to its roots in a £10million deal which will have significant spin offs for local businesses. The Inverness Marriott Hotel is reverting to its former Kingsmills name following its purchase by Aberdeen-based independent Patio Hotels.

 

Patio Hotels’ Managing Director, Tony Story said: "The hotel is regaining its identity.  It has a fascinating and varied history, Inverness is an outstanding location, and the area is a booming tourist base.  The acquisition was not just made for the fine hotel that the Kingsmills is today, but for its enormous potential.

 

"I believe that the business can only grow in a strong local economy and at the same time building strong local partnerships with suppliers and likeminded companies who are able to respond to a demand for quality service and produce."
