Edwardian atelier townhouse
The Edwardian civic building runs like an artist's studio, pairing historic municipal bones with casual spaces filled by local creatives.
What it’s good at
Notable
A Category B-listed 1910 school board headquarters preserving its original birdcage lift.
Listed
Bedrooms display Scottish-woven wool textiles and artworks sourced from local Glasgow galleries.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
The city centre grid surrounds the doors with Victorian architecture, and Buchanan Street is five minutes away on foot.
The rooms
Custom wooden bed frames sit alongside hand-blown glass lamps, and select rooms retain their original timber floorboards.
At the table
Celentano's serves handmade pasta and Italian plates cooked over embers, and the bar pours cocktails beneath arched windows.
How it began
The plot once held the family townhouse of Prime Minister Henry Campbell-Bannerman before the current stone building went up in 1910.
