Glasgow's latest luxury hotel - Grasshoppers Glasgow
was opened officially last month by Councillor Gordon Matheson,
leader, Glasgow City Council.
The 30 bed boutique hotel is located on the sixth floor of the
city's historic Caledonian Chambers building, overlooking Central
Station, built by celebrated Glasgow architect James Miller, the
visionary behind many of Glasgow's best loved buildings.
The derelict top floor of the building was painstakingly
refurbished and transformed into a £1.25 million boutique hotel, in
a joint venture with Network Rail.
The hotel's central location, sandwiched between Buchanan Street
and the IFSD, and its focus on service, style and value - rooms are
available from just £85 per night - have proved a winning formula
with business travellers and holidaymakers.
Grasshoppers has become a firm favourite on TripAdvisor,
overtaking leading international brands to become one of the top
rated hotels in Glasgow.
Councillor Matheson, said: "Glasgow has an outstanding range of
top-quality hotels, and I am delighted by the success of
Grasshoppers as one of the latest additions to this roster.
As the city becomes an ever more popular destination, our ability
to offer a range of hotels becomes very important, and a penthouse
hotel such as this plays a vital role."
The newly refurbished Grand Central Hotel in Glasgow's IFSD has
opened Deli Central signalling the completion of the iconic city
centre venue.
Following a £20 million investment from hotel and conference
operator Principal Hayley, the Grand Central Hotel has been given a
new lease of life and has 21 flexible function
spaces, 186 guest bedrooms, Champagne Central, Tempus restaurant
and Deli Central.
Since opening, the Grand Central has picked up numerous awards
including Glasgow Hotel of the Year, Meeting Space of the
Year and has recently picked up a Certificate of Excellence
from Trip Advisor. The hotel is currently offering
extremely competitive rates for meeting rooms from £29 per
person day delegate and from £100 room hire. Meeting rooms are also
now available to hire per hour.
Deli Central opens from 7am to 7pm Monday to
Friday for guests and members of the public. With a
dedicated entrance on Hope Street, diners can sit in or take
away with a great range of light bites on the menu including
sandwiches, baguettes, paninis and salads which are freshly
prepared on the premises and offer great value for money.
