A flagship Perthshire hotel is to undergo a revamp of its facilities early next year.
The Crieff Hydro Family of Hotels this week announced a “multi-million pound” investment at Crieff Hydro.
It will involve a new day-to-night bar, refurbished dining areas, and a speakeasy bar, with a new look, feel and experience for guests, Country Club members and the local community to enjoy.
There will also be innovative new menus for breakfast, brunch, lunch, afternoon tea and dinner.
Guests will also enjoy a refreshed cocktail experience, carefully curated whisky menu and champagne offering.
Work will start in January, with the new areas to be unveiled during spring 2025.
The project is the vision of brothers, Richard and Charlie Leckie – the sixth generation of the Leckie family at Crieff Hydro.
Charlie Leckie said: “This investment marks a key milestone in the 156-year journey of Crieff Hydro.
“It is the most significant investment project we’ve undertaken in the last 20 years and one we’ve been planning for quite some time.
“My family is proud of the hotel’s heritage, which means so much to the many guests that we welcome every year.
“We’ll be making sure that history is protected and shared in the contemporary offering we’ll be bringing to our guests.
“Over the coming months, we’ll unveil further details on all the food and drink menus and experiences.”
Crieff Hydro chief executive Stephen Leckie added: “Responding to the needs of our guests and a commitment to reinvestment in a family business is what has taken Crieff Hydro from its days as a ‘dry hotel’ a few decades ago to what it is now – a vibrant resort which is enjoyed by all.
“We’ve taken great care to plan this project around our guests and as we progress with the various upgrades in early 2025, we’ll be keeping a wide range of leisure and food and drink options on offer.
“The whole team are hugely excited about unveiling Crieff Hydro’s new offering and bringing new and loyal guests through our doors to enjoy a range of exceptional dining experiences.”
