When it comes to
finding a posh place to stay, Scotland’s largest
city does not disappoint, as travellers looking for a
luxury location to lay their head have plenty of opitions.
Despite having several posh places to stay, Glasgow only
has one five star hotel in the city centre and that’s
the distinctive Hilton Glasgow [map].
Located close to the River Clyde this 20 storey building
houses the all the comforts you’d expect from top
rated accommodation, accompanied by fabulous views across
Scotland. The hotel also boasts three restaurants, a bar
and a convenient location from which to explore the city.
If you prefer your accommodation to be cosmopolitan rather
than classic, then you could book your room at Malmaison
[map],
where style comes as standard. As soon as you approach
the golden entrance of this converted Greek Orthodox Church,
you will be aware that this is no average hotel. Each
room has its own individual look but all boast big beds
and power showers.
Another option would be the Radisson SAS [map] on Argyle Street, whose cosmopolitan look and feel
should make style seekers feel right at home. Built in
2002, the hotel has 250 rooms, many of which have views
over the city. Or you could try the recently refurbished Millennium Hotel [map].
This hotel has retained its impressive Victorian exterior
but offers a modern interior and a light and airy conservatory
overlooking George Square in which to enjoy afternoon
tea while watching the world go by.
Combining relaxation with “sophisticated urban style” Langs [map] hotel aims to offer a luxury retreat for those visiting
the city. Drawing inspiration from Japan and California
to create the ambience, this hotel is sure to comfort
and revitalise the weary traveller. While for more trendy
tranquillity you can try Saint Jude’s [map] on Bath Street. This hotel is uber cool but manages to
balance style with comfort so that you can relax.
When the stars go to Glasgow, their accommodation of choice
is often One Devonshire Gardens [map],
where the rooms are roomy and the luxury is luxurious.
This hotel has won numerous accolades and it’s easy
to see why. The reception rooms are grand, the bedrooms
are individually elegant, and to add to the package the
hotel boasts an excellent restaurant.
And for a place to stay that is both luxurious and unique
there’s The Arthouse Hotel [map].
This four star accommodation was built in 1911 but revamped
in 1999 to give it a contemporary twist that brings this
historic building right into the 21st century. The Arthouse
has given itself the label “urban glamour”
and aims to live up to that title in each of the 65 rooms,
two restaurants and two bars, making it a memorable place
to stay.
Other options for an upmarket holiday abodes in Glasgow
include the Glasgow Marriott [map],
the City Inn [map],
the Carlton George [map] and the Thistle Glasglow [map]. |
