The Rutland Hotel, a boutique hotel and hospitality landmark in the heart of Edinburgh’s West End, was long overdue a digital refresh. Our team at Freak Design worked closely with Signature Group to relaunch their flagship venue with a modern, mobile-first website that mirrors the elegance and premium experience of the hotel itself.
Built on WordPress and optimised for SEO, the new website offers a sleek, skimmable structure to showcase The Rutland’s unique accommodation, luxury serviced apartments, and in-house food and drink venues. With clear calls to action for bookings and table reservations, we streamlined the customer journey while allowing the brand personality to shine through.
This project is part of our long-standing partnership with Signature Group, where we continue to elevate digital experiences across their portfolio of award-winning restaurants, bars and hotels across Scotland.
