Macdonald Hotels & Resorts has become one of the first hotel groups in the country to introduce virtual online tours. 

Seven Macdonald hotels can now be explored through 360 degree online tours.

Guests can click on the hotel website then ‘walk through’ the front door of the hotel and check out the lobby, bars and restaurants plus the hotel’s leisure and meeting facilities.

Conference bookers can check the floorplans as well as locating break-out rooms and hospitality areas.

Guests can view the full range of bedrooms and even take a look around the hotel grounds.

The seven hotels which can be ‘explored’ include:

Macdonald Compleat Angler, Macdonald Marine Hotel & Spa, Macdonald Portal Hotel, Golf & Spa, Macdonald Aviemore Resort, Macdonald Holyrood Hotel, Macdonald Manchester Hotel (pictured), Macdonald Windsor Hotel.

By the end of 2018 the number of Macdonald Hotel viewable is expected to have risen to around twenty.
