Strathmore Hotels Limited entered administration on 11 August 2026, with joint administrators Alistair McAlinden and James Alexander Dewar of Interpath Advisory formally appointed to oversee the process. The company operates eight hotels across Scotland and the north of England, and all sites remain open for business while the administrators assess options.

Hotels continuing to trade in administration
The administration follows a winding-up petition filed by a creditor, which triggered the appointment. No detail has been given publicly about the scale of the company's debts or the identity of the petitioning creditor. The fact that all hotels are continuing to trade suggests the administrators believe a going-concern sale remains a realistic outcome.
No redundancies have been announced at this stage, but the position of staff across the eight properties will depend heavily on whether a buyer can be found and on what terms. Workers in hospitality businesses entering administration have transferred to new employers under TUPE in previous similar cases, though outcomes vary widely and there is no guarantee here.
