SCOTLAND’S newest luxury hotel has officially opened its doors today (1st March) as The Address Glasgow is set to impress guests from around the world with four star elegance, indulgent luxury and a state of the art wellness centre.

Located in the heart of the city on Glasgow’s Renfield Street, the 95 bed hotel celebrated its opening night by showing off its stunning interiors with a launch party that included live performances from tribal band Clan Ann Drumma, a spectacular fire dancer, and a DJ set from Capital Radio’s Robyn Richford.   

Guests can now access the full six storey hotel, including in-house cocktail eatery North, fully equipped gym and a new Wellness Suite with a bespoke sauna with its own Himalayan rock salt sauna and plunge pool. A new urban retreat for Glasgow city centre, The Address Glasgow is set to be a haven for those looking for a city stay with a difference. 

The first Scottish property and venture outside of Ireland for family-owned Irish hospitality group The Address Collective, the boutique venue has seen a meticulous renovation of one of Glasgow’s classically listed buildings. Originally built in the 1890s, The Address Collective invested over £9 million to renovate the six storey building, with an end goal of elevated luxury, rich heritage and Scottish touch points throughout.  A welcome boost for the city’s hospitality scene, The Address Glasgow and elegant restaurant North have created 80 jobs across the sector. 

Designed as a new urban retreat for Glasgow, a city which was recently voted as one of TimeOut’s Top 50 in the world to live in, The Address Glasgow features a stunning cocktail bar and eatery North, a guest-exclusive wellness centre including a plunge pool and Himalayan rock salt spa as well as beautifully designed meeting rooms tailor made for business travellers. 

The Address Glasgow is home to North, a 70 seater restaurant and cocktail bar, perfect for a late-night cocktail or pre-show appetisers. With a focus on casual dining, contemporary dishes and sustainable, seasonal produce, North offers up everything from Seared Fillet of Beef, Chicken Supreme, and classic burgers. Guests can enjoy a range of champagne, spirits and beer, or expertly crafted cocktails like Salted Caramel Espresso Martini, Smoking Negronis, or a classic Old Fashioned. 

The fifth Address Collective property in addition to properties in Dublin, Cork and Sligo, Glasgow’s latest luxury hotel lovingly reflects the city it belongs to, working with local independent businesses to source authentic Scottish materials.

Ciara McGettigan, one of the visionaries behind the Address Collective, has curated the look and feel of the new hotel, merging Irish design with Scottish motifs throughout the building from Irish wool soft furnishings to exclusively designed fabrics from Edinburgh Weavers. 

Catering to every type of guest, from solo travellers, groups, families and business travellers, The Address Glasgow offers opulent bedrooms including classic and club rooms, and a bespoke wellness room which includes complimentary access to the hotel’s wellness suite. With king-sized pillow topped beds, a rainforest shower and carefully selected Irish beauty products including aromatherapeutic pillow sprays and soothing body washes, guests can level up their stay in the wellness room, leaving behind their busy city lives and rebalancing in this urban retreat. 

Brian McGettigan, CEO of The Address Collective, commented:

“We’re thrilled to officially open the doors of The Address Glasgow, welcoming patrons from around the world and from our wonderful new neighbourhood to be the very first to see our beautiful new hotel. Each one of The Address Collective’s hotels mirrors its home city, paying homage to Scotland’s natural landscape with our traditional Irish touches throughout and renowned customer service. We’re excited to take luxury stays in the city to a new level and show off this fantastic new property and the team behind it all.”
