Percor Capital, owners of Hotel Indigo and Staybridge Suites Dundee, are to commence work on a £1million refurbishment of the IHG dual-branded site in Dundee’s city centre.

This will see the addition of a brand-new, state-of-the-art hotel bar, Eighteen Twenty-Two, alongside the existing Daisy Tasker restaurant, plus a new look lobby and additional guest parking.

The brand-new bar, Eighteen Twenty-Two, harks back to the hotel’s history, marking the date the building first opened as Dundee’s oldest, and at the time, the world’s largest linen mill. The bar will offer guests a stunning location to enjoy a selection of wines, beers and spirits with a mix of local home-grown Dundee brands showcased on the menu alongside well-known favourites.

In addition, they will also be serving an exclusive Whisky library focusing on Scottish Whiskies, locally produced gins and a carefully curated cocktail list celebrating the best of local brands and ingredients. Visitors will also be able to enjoy welcoming, locally sourced dishes on the new bar menu including toasted bagels and flatbreads, bite-sized burger sliders and homemade house favourites such as pork and black pudding sausage rolls and haggis Scotch eggs.

The newly refurbished lobby in the stylish, boutique Hotel Indigo will include co-working spaces with sought after city centre parking, branded coffee, and pastries available to purchase throughout the day.  Work on the Eighteen Twenty-Two bar and new hotel reception is due to commence early February and expected to be open during Easter. 

Jean-Pierre Permutt, Director at Percor Capital, said: “We’ve enjoyed an incredible five years since opening Hotel Indigo in Dundee and are now delighted to unveil a new £1 million investment to elevate our offering even further. Regularly recognised as a cultural hotspot we see it only fit to add an incredible bar which captures the culture, spirit and history of the city. Eighteen Twenty-Two will reflect a vibrant tapestry of local flavour, international favourites, and a fantastic addition to the Hotel and its heritage.”

Manny Baber, General Manager at Hotel Indigo and Staybridge Suites Dundee said: “I am thrilled to announce our brand-new bar, Eighteen Twenty-Two, that celebrates our history whilst offering a stylish, modern space for guests and locals alike. We will be serving a rich mix of incredible local brands to discover alongside house favourites. Guests will be able to sample carefully curated wine, whisky and cocktail lists and tuck into small plates and homemade specials.

This enhancement really elevates our guest experience to new heights and showcases our commitment to providing an unforgettable experience; you can indulge in a boutique hotel stay, relish upmarket three-course dining at our Daisy Tasker restaurant and savour exceptional pre- and post-dinner drinks in our brand-new bar, without even needing to step outside our doors.”

The additional renovations of our lobby and car park will also create an incredible co-working option for our local audience and corporate guests.”
