Rezidor SAS Hospitality has announced that it will be putting up the first three Missoni hotels in Kuwait, Edinburgh and Dubai. The UK hotel, Hotel Missoni Edinburgh, is expected to become one of the city's most prominent new hotels. The hotel is located on the famous Royal Mile, which connects Edinburgh Castle and the Palace of Hollyrood House, at Victoria Terrace and George IV Bridge.
With plans to open in late 2008, Hotel Missoni Edinburgh is expected to offer 130 elegant guestrooms, a Bar Missoni, Missoni Cucina with private dining, a spa and fitness center and several conference rooms.
Rezidor SAS previously signed a license agreement with the Italian fashion house Missoni in November 2005 to develop the Hotel Missoni brand worldwide. These three new properties are the first step by Rezidor SAS toward achieving the goal of having 30 Missoni hotels in operation or under development by 2010.
To ensure quality and brand consistency, Rezidor SAS says the interior design of all Missoni hotels will be conceptualized and controlled by Studio Thun, the Milan-based architectural and design practice, headed by the renowned architect Matteo Thun. It will be locally implemented by Rezidor partners such as LWD of Dubai for the Kuwait and Dubai hotels and Graven Images of Glasgow for Hotel Missoni Edinburgh.
