With the Commonwealth Games opening date not that far away (23 July) the Scottish hospitality industry is readying itself for an unforgettable year of tourism.
The latest announcement comes from Hilton Worldwide who has unveiled plans to open the country’s debut Hampton by Hilton hotel in Glasgow’s city centre this summer.
Under a franchise agreement with SCOT Sheridan and Curo West Campbell LLP, £11m has been invested in the redevelopment of a former office block on West Campbell Street, a short walk from Glasgow Central Rail Station. The building will undergo an extensive renovation, converting the structure into an 88 guest room hotel with additional features including a 24-hour fitness centre.
Patrick Fitzgibbon, Senior Vice President, Development, Europe and Africa, Hilton Worldwide, said: “Having successfully opened Hilton Garden Inn Glasgow City Centre two years ago we are delighted to be providing further choice for guests seeking affordable, quality, centrally located accommodation with our debut Hampton by Hilton.”
Hampton by Hilton Glasgow Central will offer the brand’s full range of signature services. These include free high-speed internet access, a daily hot breakfast included in the room rate and a round the clock snack bar. www.hilton.com
