YOTEL Glasgow officially opened its doors this month, marking the brand’s second Scottish opening and its fourth European city-centre hotel.
The hotel has 257 modern cabins (YOTEL speak for bedrooms) ready to book and offers guests a smart space to stay in a buzzing city centre spot (Argyle Street). Its minimalistic design and clever use of technology, including a brand new App with a downloadable SmartKey, is perfect for those visiting the city for both work and play.
From June, the hotel will also be home to VEGA, a bar, four lane bowling alley and event space that can host 282 guests. VEGA will come alive at night, offering dining and cocktails to the soundtrack of the city’s DJs. During the daytime, the unapologetically bright and bold space will lend itself well to co-working, casual meetings and private hire events.
Stuart Douglas (General Manager, YOTEL Glasgow) commented:
“YOTEL exists to challenge the status quo, appealing to those who find traditional hotels uninspiring and who want more than a great sleep. At YOTEL Glasgow, we’re going to be delivering a unique hotel experience through our awesome people, smart design and creative use of technology – all with a touch of fun and tons of passion. There’s nothing else quite like us in the city and we can’t wait to show our guests and the people of Glasgow what we’re all about.”
Hubert Viriot (YOTEL, CEO) added:
“YOTEL Glasgow will mark our 17th hotel in the portfolio and fifth hotel in the UK. We remain optimistic about the future of travel, particularly for the YOTEL brand, as we focus on our ‘everything you need and nothing you don’t’ approach which matches the needs of travellers in the current environment. As our third office conversion, Glasgow is another example of our flexibility in design which we believe will become more important as we look towards the future and continue our focus on conversions of offices, retail and existing hotels.”
#SmartStay measures are in place offering enhanced hygiene practices, contactless payments and social distancing in response to the ongoing situation.
