Native set for October opening in Glasgow
UK: Native is taking bookings from October 15 for its Glasgow aparthotel.
Native Glasgow is the result of a
multi-million-pound restoration of an Edwardian Art Deco office
building, formerly the headquarters of the Anchor Line Shipping
Company. The new aparthotel features 64 apartments ranging from
studios to penthouses.
Native worked alongside interior architects ICA to preserve the
building's heritage, retaining original features such as glazed
tiles, terrazzo flooring, timber wall panelling and
fireplaces.
Facilities will include 24-hour reception, concierge and free
high-speed Wi-Fi. The building's ground and basement floors are
home to two popular restaurants, The Anchor Line and Atlantic,
which are open from breakfast through to dinner.
Guy Nixon, CEO of Native said: "This is a rare opportunity to
reimagine a piece of Glasgow's shipping heritage as a uniquely
special space for the city's visitors to stay. We have worked in
close partnership with building owners, the White Building
Properties Company, to mirror the design ethos and opulence of a
1920s ocean liner. Native Glasgow feels like an exciting milestone
in our plans to expand our aparthotel business across all major UK
cities."
The property is located next to Glasgow's historic George Square,
and a short walk from Glasgow Central Station.
