Steven Fyfe, associate director in the Hotels agency team at Savills Glasgow, said: “This sale demonstrates there is appetite from hotel investors to secure representation in Glasgow where there is a robust hotels market driven by tourism and business. 

"The market has been significantly boosted by recent events including COP26 last year that put the city on the global stage.

"Glasgow’s ability to host major events at the OVO Hydro, Scotland’s largest conference centre, has seen the city chosen for 71 conferences in the last year and is expected to see the city remain a preferred events venue. Hotel operators recognise this.

“What is key to success in Glasgow’s hotels market is by being able to deliver the right product. The purchaser here has plans to create a bespoke product that we know to do well and which we believe will enhance Glasgow’s hotel offer.

"The building lends itself to a truly boutique experience and we look forward to seeing the new owners commence their business plan.”
