The George scoops another three awards at the Principal Hayley Quality Wins Gala Event! The hotel won Service Excellence 2011, Health and Safety 2011 and Outstanding Performance 2011. The team had a great time.
Christmas at The George is looking very busy. Demand has grown over the years - especially for Hogmanay which is now full for 2011/12. Usually this is a slow move and we wouldn't normally sell out until mid December. Well done to the team who has worked hard over the years to make this the success it has become!
Well done to our Executive Chef, Stewart Jarvie, on being recognised as a leading Chef! Stewart has been honoured by his peers and has become a member of 'The Master Chefs of Great Britain'. Not only this, but he has recently spent two weeks in Abu Dhabi at the Rotana Beach Hotel where he launched a fabulous Scottish menu. He had to source the best of Scottish food from the desert! Well done Stewart.
Thank you to all our colleagues who had a great day out on Craigleath Island, just off North Berwick. For the second year we have sent people to the island to help clear giant weeds that stop the wee puffins from nesting! (We did pick them up again!)

It was a night for celebrations on Sunday 27th March 2011 as Principal Hayley’s two Scottish hotels swept the board at the 2011 Scottish Hotel Awards. The George walked away with five accolades in total including Reception Innovation Award, Business Performance Gold Medal and a Design Medal for its stylish Panorama Suite. The hotel is renowned within Edinburgh for its first class service and luxurious facilities and is no stranger to winning awards - in 2009 the George was named Best City Hotel in Edinburgh. Both the George Hotel and the Grand Central Hotel picked up Hotel of the Year for their respective cities, paying testament to the high levels of service that have become synonymous with the Principal Hayley brand.
