Stirling Observer
|April 30, 2025
Stirling city centre's Golden Lion Hotel has new owners.
The 66-bedroom property in the heart of Stirling is almost 240 years old and has been a long-standing venue for diners, travellers and wedding parties.
Hotelier Gary Atkinson purchased the Golden Lion, the oldest building on King Street, from previous owners Flagship Hotels.
It features a majestic golden lion above the entrance porch.
