Welcome to Sandman Hotel Group

Over 50 years ago Sandman Hotel Group opened our first location, a quaint Inn located in Smithers, British Columbia, Canada.

Since then, we have grown into a truly international company with over 50 locations across Canada, the USA, the UK and growing. From those humbling beginnings, Sandman has come a long way. We were recently awarded the prestigious Pinnacle award as Hotel Company of the Year.

In 2011, Sandman expanded into the UK with Sandman Signature Newcastle Hotel, situated directly across the street from St. James' Park and in the building that once held the offices of the prestigious Newcastle Brewery, brewers of Newcastle Brown Ale.

Next came London Gatwick, a project designed to create a memorable and enjoyable experience for those travelling through the airport and those staying at leisure guests.

In the summer of 2018, our group saw the launch of Sandman Signature Aberdeen, the groups' flagship property in the UK boasting 218 guest bedrooms, a specialist whisky bar and a Grand Ballroom with a capacity of more than 300.

In October 2019, we acquired the stunning Portmarnock Resort, Dublin's only coastal resort - complete with Championship Golf Links, a spa and award-winning restaurants.

In April 2023, we opened our second hotel in Scotland, Sandman Signature Glasgow Hotel. Situated in-between Glasgow City Centre and the West End, boasting 179 stunning bedrooms and suites along with two event spaces for private dining, corporate events and intimate parties.

Sandman Hotel Group UK&I will expand further in the upcoming years, with the planned opening of Sandman Signature Edinburgh Airport Hotel.

Travel: the word conjures up images of being on the road and away from home. We looked for a way to incorporate the comfort of home with the relaxation of getting away from it all and packaged it in an elegant, refined experience that was sure to resonate with our guests. Small touches like concierge service, flat screen TVs, complimentary in-room internet connections and, not to mention, our delectable on-site restaurants make all the difference. A redefinition of elegance without pretention. These were the goals we tried and continue to strive towards, to ensure you an uncommonly satisfying stay with us.

Elegance is often defined as being unusually effective and simple. It is frequently used as a standard of tastefulness. Elegance exhibits refined grace and a seemingly effortless beauty. In theory, it’s a simple concept but surprisingly difficult to achieve. Our new Sandman Signature Hotels & Resorts are designed from the ground up, with the expressed purpose of providing our guests a relaxed, comfortable elegance.

Easy, informal and the opposite of stressful. Relaxed would, at times, seem to be at odds with elegance. When well executed, the two can work in perfect harmony. An unhurried transition from the stress and excitement of the day, to the soothing, relaxed atmosphere built into each of our new Sandman Signature Hotels & Resorts.

Another deceptively simple concept, one you’ll often find hiding in the details. Considerations such as luxurious beds with both pillow top and memory foam options, concierge and valet service, cutting-edge business centres and the latest in technology in every room, plus on-site fitness facilities. All these amenities are provided for your comfort and supported by the experienced Sandman team.
