Hilton Glasgow

Hilton Glasgow

Known for almost 30 years, the Hilton Glasgow claims to be Scotland’s leading conference and events hotel and one of the best in the UK. One of the special features of the Hilton Glasgow is certainly the brand new, elegant, dazzling and functional Grand Ballroom, equipped with the latest technology. Some of the country’s most important conferences and meetings are held here.

 

 

Location

The Hilton Glasgow is a hotel in the city center located in the heart of the financial district, within walking distance of the city’s main shopping area and with easy access to major transport links and the Scottish Exhibition & Conference Centre (SEC). The hotel is just a short walk from the King’s Theater and a variety of restaurants and bars. Glasgow International Airport can be reached in around 15 minutes by car in normal traffic conditions, and the city’s main train station is just a few minutes’ walk away. The slip road to the M8 freeway is practically right at the exit of the hotel garage!

Facilities

The Hilton Glasgow has both executive rooms and an executive lounge on the first floor. Unfortunately, the range of snacks on offer in the latter has been reduced to almost zero; you can order one (!) snack during pre-dinner time, but otherwise there is only a small selection of drinks.

You can relax, work out and recharge your batteries in the stylish Health & Fitness Club at the Hilton Glasgow. With a 20 meter swimming pool, sauna, steam room, state of the art gym with the latest equipment, as well as personal training and treatments from PURE Spa & Beauty, the club is perfect for all fitness and wellness needs! Please note that advance booking is required for access to the pool, spa bath, sauna and steam room at an additional cost. There are also limited spaces available for the pool. However, access to the fitness area is free of charge for hotel guests.

We should not forget the positive fact that the Hilton Glasgow has an underground garage with two parking levels, in which we have always found sufficient space. There are at least six charging stations for electric cars alone. There is also an elevator directly to the hotel lobby.

Gastronomy

The “Whisky Mist Bar & Kitchen” restaurant serves delicious cocktails, lunch and dinner. Here you can expect a selection of seasonal dishes, whisky cocktails are served and there is an excellent selection of local and craft beers. The range of different types of whisky is quite impressive. The Whisky Mist now also offers a delicious light breakfast with fresh pastries or hot rolls.

The Tea Lounge by Dilmah, the first of its kind in the UK, offers guests an inspiring ambience with unique healthy and innovative tea-based drinks as well as signature afternoon tea and light snacks.

Guest Rooms

The hotel has around 320 rooms furnished with great attention to detail, from standard rooms to really spacious suites on the top floor with gigantic views and no less luxurious furnishings. The rooms with ultra-comfortable beds are in perfect condition, cosmetics are available, unfortunately no longer in small bottles but in permanently installed dispensers. The offer also includes 24-hour room service.
