The Roxburghe hotel has announced plans for a major tie-up with Albert Roux and revealed the appointment of Inverlochy Castle Management International (ICMI).
The four-AA-star, 22-bedroom Roxburghe hotel announced that both ICMI and Roux have agreed 15-year contracts, putting in place a “suitable long-term relationship and commitment to take the standards of hospitality and service to the next level.”
The Roxburghe hotel will benefit from the expertise of both the hotel management team and Albert Roux and his son Michel. In addition the restaurant, which will be headed by a Roux trained chef, will be the first hotel within Scottish borders to achieve such an accolade.
The Duke of Roxburghe, owner of the Roxburghe, said that he believes the new alliance with ICMI and Roux will ensure the hotel will receive a world-class reputation for hospitality and food.
“This is an important development not only for the Roxburghe Estates, but also for the Scottish borders, increasing our role as a destination hotel,” commented the Duke of Roxburghe.
Roux said. “This is a dream come true. The Roxburghe is such a prestigious place and connected with Floors Castle, which is so much a history of my beloved Scotland. We will definitely put it on the world map.”
Dr Sin Chai, chairman of ICMI, said: “We are really looking forward to seeing this lovely hotel flourish and being further enjoyed by visitors from near and far.”
