01 — The challenge
Bringing a diverse collection of stays together under one distinctive digital identity.
With 11 individual hotels, apartments and accommodation options spanning three Scottish destinations, the challenge was to create a single digital experience that could unite very different properties without losing what makes each one unique.
The website needed to make a large and varied portfolio feel easy to explore, while helping guests quickly find the right stay for their needs, from ultra-luxury hotels and private apartments to more relaxed, city-centre crashpads.
02 — The solution
A bold, editorial-led platform built around discovery.
The new Scotsman Collection website creates a clear umbrella for the portfolio while giving every property its own presence and personality. Distinct collections, location-led browsing and immersive imagery make it easy to move from inspiration to booking, while a consistent visual language gives the wider collection a recognisable identity.
The experience brings accommodation, dining, weddings, events, offers and different ways to stay into one cohesive platform, creating a digital destination that reflects the breadth and character of the Scotsman Collection.
