The Address Collective have chosen a historic property on Renfield Street for its first Scottish property and first venture outside of Ireland.
The listed building was originally designed for Lancashire Insurance Company in 1890s. After £9 million investment by the McGettigans, the hoteliers aim to create an address like no other with a new "design-led, state-of-the-art, luxe urban retreat for locals and tourists to explore".
Brian and Ciara McGettigan, the visionaries behind the The Address Collective brand, have curated the 95-bed hotel which they say combines luxury with personalised service.
Set to officially launch in early 2024, The Address Glasgow will include a wellness spa complete with gym, plunge pool, heated loungers and a Himalayan salt rock sauna, alongside "beautifully presented" meeting rooms.
For dining and socialising there will be the North, an open plan eatery and cocktail bar located on street level, offering all day dining and cocktails and drinks for both guests and visitors.
Brian McGettigan said: “Our commitment to the city of Glasgow goes beyond hospitality. We’re creating over 80 jobs and investing in the local community because we believe in the bright future of this dynamic city.
"We’ve chosen Glasgow because we love the people, the culture and can’t wait to raise the bar for luxury stays in Scotland.”
