1897 Central Station Hotel, Hope Street, Glasgow 1897 Central Station Hotel, Hope Street, Glasgow. Central Station is fronted by the Central Hotel on Gordon Street. Adjoining onto the station concourse, it was one of Glasgow's most prestigious hotels in its heyday. Famous guests included Frank Sinatra and Winston Churchill. It was originally designed by Robert Rowand Anderson, in 'Queen Anne style'; he also furnished the public rooms. The hotel was completed in 1883, but was extended along with the station in 1901–1906. The hotel extension was designed by James Miller and it opened on 15 April 1907. The world's first long-distance television pictures were transmitted to the Central Hotel in the station, on 24 May 1927 by John Logie Baird. The hotel was sold by British Rail in the 1980s, and passed through the hands of various private operators until its most recent owner, the Real Hotel Group, went into administration in February 2009, and the hotel subsequently closed amid concerns of asbestos contamination and structural deterioration. In June 2009, it was revealed that a new company had acquired the hotel building, and plans to refurbish and rebrand it as the Glasgow Grand Central Hotel were revealed. It is expected to re-open in September 2010 New York 2010 New York 2010 - Empire State Building, Grand Central Station, Fashion26 Hotel, Manhattan, New York 2010 - Empire State Building, Grand Central Station, Fashion26 Hotel, Manhattan, Related topics: hotels frankfurt niederrad occidental grand papagayo hotel guanacaste theme rooms hotels coachman inns of america book hotel rooms theme room hotels in pa best hotel in niagara falls commodore hotel astoria grand hotel montana hotel imperial annecy |
