Graham also pleaded guilty at Glasgow Sheriff Court to possession of an imitation firearm with intent to cause Mr McGuire that unlawful violence would be used against him.
His lawyer Marisa Borland was asked by sheriff Johanna Johnstone QC what type of firearm it was.
She replied: "It was described as a silver hand gun shaped lighter.
"Patrick McGuire was another resident at the hotel."
More information surrounding the circumstances will be heard at next month's sentencing.
