£100m Hi-tech hotel for cityHi-tech hotel for city (Evening Times)
DUTCH hotel bosses have chosen Glasgow as the site for their first hi-tech hotel outside Holland. The citizenM group will shortly begin work on the £100million hotel next to the Theatre Royal. But not all of the 180-room hotel will be built in Glasgow. The bespoke rooms will be created from scratch in a Dutch factory and shipped over to Scotland, where they will be slotted into place on top of each other. The 275,000 sq ft property will be the first built outside the Netherlands before a rollout in 20 cities, including London, Barcelona, Berlin, Milan, Brussels, Copenhagen, Prague, Paris, Madrid, Stockholm, Moscow and Budapest. Bosses say their ethos is "affordable luxury for the people". The designer rooms offer a power rain shower - which looks like the beam me up, Scotty' transporter in Star Trek - remote-controlled ambient lighting and a touch-screen mood pad', which allows guests to select lighting, temperature and music in six settings. Other hi-tech features include free Wi-Fi, electronic window blinds, free on-demand movies and an alarm clock that can be programmed to wake me gently' or wake me wildly'. James H |
