A new hotel by a prime Irish group is set to open in Glasgow city centre.
The Address Hotel Glasgow will be located at the site of the former Pocotel, on the corner of Renfield Street and West George Street.
As the Glasgow Times reported in May, a planning application was submitted to the council to put up signage on the B-listed building, which has now been approved.
