Construction for client Vastint Hospitality will take place next to the next to SSE Hydro entertainment destination.

Demand for accommodation is huge near the venue and the two new hotels will provide a combined 434 rooms.

The first hotel on Stobcross Stree will be operated under the Courtyard by Marriott brand and will have 221 rooms.

The second hotel – to be operated as a Moxy Hotel – will feature a total of 213 rooms.

Enabling works are underway on the Courtyard by Marriott hotel which is due to complete in spring 2020, while the Moxy Hotel is set for completion in summer 2020.

Ed Parry, Managing Director, Robertson Central West, said: “The SSE Hydro has built a stellar reputation since opening five years ago and demand for hotel rooms in the area has risen dramatically.

“These two new hotels, operating under separate brands, will give guests further choice and help ease the pressure on existing hotel stock in Glasgow.

“For Robertson, this project shows that we are continuing to grow our operations in the west of Scotland.

“Securing this major, high-profile contract is testament to the work that has gone into building our business in Glasgow and highlights our growing status as the contractor of choice for delivery of hotels in the region.”
