Gleneagles Hotel has introduced its most exclusive residence yet: the Tower Suite, a two-level, one-bedroom retreat with a private rooftop terrace and sweeping views of the Scottish countryside. The suite occupies the hotel’s original tower, once home to its library, and reimagines the space with a blend of Art Deco heritage and vintage travel romance.
An Address Unlike Any Other
The Tower Suite’s location is unmatched at Gleneagles, positioned above the grand entrance and beneath the hotel’s iconic Saltire flag. Guests arrive through a hallway lined with monochrome marble, burgundy resin, and gold Art Deco wallpaper, setting a tone of refined luxury. A spiral staircase connects the floors, leading to a private dining room, sitting area, and library—with a hidden stairwell accessing the hotel’s only rooftop terrace.
The terrace offers panoramic views of the Ochil Hills, the hotel’s three legendary golf courses, and the gateway to the Highlands. It’s designed for intimate gatherings, from morning coffee to evening drinks receptions. Below, the ten-seat dining room features timber walls, herringbone flooring, and a built-in Ming Green marble bar, flanked by vintage Art Deco chairs. The space adapts seamlessly from formal dinners to board meetings.
Tailored Luxury for Every Guest
Every stay is curated with a single point of contact handling reservations, dining, and activities around the clock. The hotel’s philosophy is simple: no request is too great. Whether it’s securing a last-minute dinner reservation or arranging an early morning padel lesson followed by salmon fishing, the team ensures a bespoke experience. Dining is equally flexible, blending Gleneagles’ existing menus with custom options tailored to guests’ preferences.
The bedroom centers around a hand-painted mural by artist Nancy Daniell, depicting the Perthshire environment, alongside a custom four-poster bed and walnut joinery. The ensuite bathroom features an Arabescato marble arch, Nero Marquina detailing, and a dramatic curtained bath with tinted mirrors. A Night Pantry, complete with a fridge, coffee machine, and curated snacks, caters to late-night needs.
The suite’s design draws from Gleneagles’ 1920s origins as a Caledonian Railway Company retreat. Materials like glossy lacquer, brass, and timber evoke the golden age of travel, while vintage rail-themed details, such as a hidden bar stocked by The American Bar, add theatrical flair. Furniture mixes antique pieces from Scottish dealers with bespoke designs, and art consultant Sigrid Kirk has curated works by Scottish artists for a storied yet fresh aesthetic.
The Tower Suite is now available for booking. Reservations can be made through Gleneagles’ official website.
