Hearts hope to cash in on the fact that Edinburgh is the UK’s second most visited city.
A club statement read: “Heart of Midlothian can confirm that plans are well underway for the exciting development of the main stand second floor at Tynecastle Park.
“The club is applying for planning permission for the development of a 22-room boutique hotel, additional hospitality lounges and conference and event space within the second floor.
“The hotel rooms and additional conference and events space will give us a unique opportunity to host more events at Tynecastle and also appeal to the millions of visitors that Edinburgh attracts each year as the UK’s second most visited city.
“The club has taken time to consider all available options relating to the second floor and we believe this project will provide the best platform to support our ambitious growth plans both on and off the pitch.
“We will update supporters on timescales as the planning process stage progresses.”
