Hilton Dundee/St Andrews Coast is embracing the celebratory spirit this spring by announcing it will be offering free overnight stays to any couples with names linked to royalty.

From 29 April until 2 May 2011, the weekend of HRH Prince William’s forthcoming wedding to Kate Middleton, lucky pairings who can prove they share the same forenames as members of royal couples will be awarded a free stay and bottle of champagne during the bank holiday weekend. Guests will be asked to confirm their identity in advance by emailing proof of identity to [email protected] along with their preferred date. 

The hotel is hoping to attract a full house throughout the weekend including couples that share names with William and Kate, Charles and Camilla, Harry and Chelsy and Elizabeth and Philip with the initiative.

Overlooking the River Tay in Dundee’s city centre and located just five minutes from Dundee Airport, Hilton Dundee/St Andrews Coast hotel is ideally placed for exploring attractions such as Discovery Point and Glamis Castle. Play golf at nearby Carnoustie and St. Andrews or enjoy shopping at the Overgate Retail Centre.

The hotel is situated just 20 minutes drive from the coast of St Andrews, the town in which HRH Prince William and Kate Middleton met and attended university.

Stuart Cran, general manager, Hilton Dundee/St Andrews Coast, said, “Hilton Dundee/St Andrews Coast wanted to do something fun to celebrate the upcoming Royal Wedding. Whilst HRH Prince William and Kate Middleton might have made their plans for that weekend already, we wanted to invite other ‘royal’ couples from across the U.K. to come and join us for the bank holiday weekend celebrations.”
