The Blythswood Square Hotel Glasgow opened in the October of 2009 and takes up a geographically central position at the heart of this giant Scottish city. The five-star venue is set on one side of Blythswood Square and dates back to 1823, although it has undergone a major overhaul to bring it to the standard it exhibits today. Blythswood Square was formerly home to the Royal Scottish Automobile Club and it was from the venue that the 1955 Monte Carlo Rally began. The restaurant has subsequently been named in memory of this feat. The Georgian-style building was under the ownership of the Automobile Club until 2002 before the Town House Company took control of the building in 2006, and it was they who subsequently carried out the refurbishment process.
The Blythswood Square Hotel is centrally placed in Glasgow within the Glasgow City Central Conservation Area. It enjoys a privileged position next to an open space of green, something which is no longer a common occurrence in this Scottish city. Due to its central location, the Blythswood Hotel is conveniently positioned for those looking to reach the city’s major attractions and businesses. In addition, several train stations are situated in close proximity to the hotel and the airport is located to the west of the city.
Glasgow’s Blythswood Square Hotel contains a total of 100 guest rooms that culminates in the impressively luxurious Penthouse Suite. There are several other types of bedroom, suite and apartment to choose from. The venue’s main dining facility was once the Automobile Club’s ballroom. Guests are able to enjoy a range of different dishes during their stay, while they are also be able to make the most of the Salon Lounge for afternoon tea or champagne.
For meetings and events there are several different options at the Blythswood Square Hotel Glasgow, the most prominent of which is the Monte Carlo Suite. Private dining, small-scale conferences and product launches are among the activities that can be held in the rooms. Meanwhile, to help you relax, there is an extensive spa, which offers a range of treatments and massages.
