The site at 19-21 Cambridge Street, has been unoccupied for many years.

Designed by Glasgow-based architect studio, HAUS collective, the contemporary aparthotel will include all the stylish features of a boutique city hotel, including 24-hour reception, lounge and café, combined with the convenience and increased space of a self-catering apartment designed for longer stays, complete with a kitchen and living area. Residents can also enjoy the use of a gym and a rooftop terrace.

Nigel Jones, director, PMI Developments, said: “Despite Glasgow’s buoyant hotel market there is a lack of quality aparthotels in the city which is growing in popularity across Europe amongst both business and leisure travellers.

“This prominent site with its central location lends itself well to an aparthotel and will be a boost to the ongoing regeneration of Sauchiehall Street.”

A drop-in public consultation event will take place on Tuesday 15th November from 1pm until 6pm at Edward House, 199 Sauchiehall Street, when the proposals will be available to view and the design team will be available to answer questions. Plans can also be viewed from 15th November at www.streets-uk.com/19-21cambridgestreet

A planning application is expected to be submitted in the new year following further consultation as designs progress.

If approved, the plans will ensure investment of over £35 million into the city centre.
