A new five-star 123-bedroom spa hotel is included in plans for the new Edinburgh Marina proposed at Granton Harbour. The hotel is one component of a £300 million project which will also include retail, leisure and office space – as well as a multi-storey car park and new docks capable of berthing up to 400 boats. A proposed extension to the new Edinburgh tram service will provide a transport link between Edinburgh Marina and central Edinburgh.

Construction work for the project could begin as early as summer 2015 depending on planning approval.

Edinburgh Marina will be just over two miles from the centre of Edinburgh and will act as a gateway to the city.
