Developer opportunities in tourism
Edinburgh has experienced growth in the value and volume of
tourism for several decades.
But as Edinburgh and the Lothians continue to see demand
grow, additional tourist accomodation will be needed, including
hotels, guest houses, hostels and self-catering units.
To meet the Scottish Government's target of 50% growth in the
value of Scottish tourism by 2015, it is estimated that:
- Edinburgh will need up to an additional 4,000 hotel
bedrooms
- The Lothians will need up to an additional 800 bedrooms
The city is keen to attract developers to fulfil these
additional accommodation requirements.

additional information please see the "related documents"
