New £10m Hotel To Be Built At Hamilton Park Racecourse

A new £10 million hotel is to be built on the grounds of Hamilton Park Racecourse in South Lanarkshire.

The 118-room property will be operated by Hampton by Hilton and will bring up to 20 new jobs to the racecourse.

Designed by ICA Architects, the hotel will be built in a modular fashion on what is currently the main public car park of the racecourse grounds.

Vivien Currie, Chief Executive at Hamilton Park Racecourse, said: "We are delighted to unveil this landmark project for Hamilton Park Racecourse and are certain it will deliver substantial benefits to our business and the wider economy.


"The project has been driven by both public demand, largely from our local customer base, not only for racedays but for weddings and other events, and from our racing personnel."

Graham Dodd, Senior Director, Development, UK & Ireland, Hilton, added: "Hampton by Hilton has grown rapidly since being introduced to Scotland last year. We will soon have six hotels operating under the brand in four key locations across Scotland and we look forward to welcoming guests to Hamilton and its racecourse in the coming years."
