With 374 rooms, the new hotel will be one of the largest in Scotland and the first in Glasgow for the European budget designer brand. The building will combine high quality product design with an excellent location and attractive pricing.

Donald MacDonald, managing director, Ogilvie Construction, said: “We are delighted to be working with Motel One to deliver their vision for a new hotel in the centre of Glasgow. The building will be constructed to the highest standards, combining the use of high quality materials with our extensive experience and understanding of the needs of the hotel and leisure sector.”

Ogilvie Construction built the Motel One Edinburgh-Princes on Princes Street in Edinburgh, which opened in 2014. The new hotel in Glasgow will open in 2017 and will include the typical One Lounge, which is the living room, breakfast café and bar all in one.
