Radisson Blu Perth

Radisson Blu Perth (formerly known as the Station Hotel) is an historic building in Perth, Perth and Kinross, Scotland. Located on Leonard Street, it is a Category B listed building built in 1888. It opened for business in August 1890. One of the hotel's first managers was Arthur Foster. The hotel faces Perth railway station, for which it is named. It is also close to Perth bus station. The hotel was formerly owned and managed by the Highland, North British and Caledonian Railway companies. The building, made of cream and red sandstone, was designed by Perth's city architect Andrew Heiton, who assumed his role some thirty years earlier. He worked with another local architect, John Murray Robertson, on the project. The hotel is a notable example of Scottish baronial architecture. Queen Victoria was a regular visitor to the hotel. She had breakfast there on her final visit to Perth in May 1900, eight months before her death. She was in a wheelchair on that day. In 2021, the hotel joined Radisson Hotel Group and became Radisson Blu Perth. The following year, the hotel closed in order to house asylum seekers.

Queens Hotel, Perth

The Queens Hotel is located in Perth, Perth and Kinross, Scotland. It stands on Leonard Street, at its junction with Cross Street, around 200 feet (61 m) northwest of the Station Hotel, which was also built in the 19th century to take advantage of tourists arriving in and departing from the city from the adjacent Perth railway station. Queen Victoria was a regular visitor to that hotel. Named Gillan's Queen's Hotel in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, it had an attached bar on its northern side. In 1889, it was one of four Perth public houses fined for breaching the Forbes McKenzie Act by not enforcing closing time on a Tuesday night. The legislation was passed in 1853 to regulate pubs in Scotland. Today's incarnation is owned by Best Western. The buildings attached to the northern side of the original hotel, and part of Pomarium Street to the rear, were demolished in the 1950s to make way for Perth bus station. In 1918, during the latter stages of World War I, the building was used as the headquarters for the district directorate of the Ministry of Labour for Perthshire and surrounding counties. The department's charge was "the resettlement in civil life of officers and men of like educational qualifications". In 2022, not longer after the hotel had been purchased by the Compass Hospitality Group, after being put on the market for £1.25m, the hotel closed in order to house asylum seekers.
