A new hotel has just opened its doors in time for Festival guests in the heart of the capital.
The NYX Hotel Edinburgh is another in the portfolio of a stylish destination hotel brand which already has hotels in Dublin, Berlin, Ibiza and London, all featuring “urban style and vibrant city centre energy”.
With 60 new jobs created the new hotel represents a £60 million investment in the city, expanding the Leonardo Royal site with 125 rooms and a new bar and restaurant.
Simone Villari, Hotel Manager at NYX Hotel Edinburgh, said: “Edinburgh has always thrived on art, music and culture. With NYX Hotel Edinburgh, our ambition is to capture that spirit and create a hotel that feels bold, vibrant, and uniquely Scottish.
“With the Edinburgh Fringe Festival just around the corner, this is a particularly exciting time to open. The city comes alive with creativity, culture and an electric atmosphere, attracting performers, artists and visitors from around the world. That energy is at the heart of the NYX brand, and we’re excited to become part of the experience and welcome guests looking to immerse themselves in everything Edinburgh has to offer.”
Jason Carruthers, Managing Director at Leonardo Hotels UK & Ireland, said: “The opening of NYX Hotel Edinburgh marks an important milestone for us as our fifth hotel in the city and our first NYX Hotel in Scotland. This has been a complex and ambitious project, transforming and expanding an existing site to create something truly special in one of the world’s most exciting cities.
“Thank you to everyone who has played a role in bringing this vision to life, particularly Simone, our Cluster General Manager Claire McLoughlin, and the entire NYX Hotel Edinburgh team, as well as Ciaran Lavery and his Design & Construction team. Their passion and dedication have created a hotel that truly embodies the spirit of the NYX Hotels brand, and we’re excited to welcome guests to experience it for themselves.”
Each room features DREAM beds, mood-setting lighting and Nespresso machines, and the bar offers signature cocktails and an all day menu. There will be weekly DJ sessions late into the night.
