HIE Unveils Plans To Build New Inverness Campus Hotel

Construction News Image
Highlands and Islands Enterprise (HIE) has unveiled plans to potentially create a new hotel at Inverness Campus.

Developers are being invited to submit their interest in the proposal, which would see around three acres of the site redeveloped into a business-class hotel featuring 120 bedrooms, meeting rooms, bistro, bar and lounge.

HIE said improved access to leisure, restaurant, café and bar facilities would further enhance the Campus' appeal to employees, students, visitors and local people. It will also make the site more attractive to potential investors and continue the growth of the commercial sector within the Campus.

Ruaraidh MacNeil, HIE's Inverness Campus project director, said: "We have been exploring options for a hotel development on Inverness Campus for a number of years now, and are delighted to be able to present this opportunity to the market.

"We are looking for a hotel developer who will embrace the collaborative ethos of the Campus, support local supply chain companies and provide employment and training opportunities, particularly for young or disadvantaged people."
