This 3* hotel is located in the Glasgow suburb of Stepps. Just 8 miles from the city centre it is conveniently located near Scotland's main motorway network and only 50 mins from Edinburgh.
The village of Stepps dates back further than the 1800's and was so named for the road running through the village. The village includes two churches, a health club and the Buchanan Tower which was transferred to offices after the closure of the James Buchanan & Co Whisky Distillery which opened in 1969 and provided some 800 local jobs until 1987. The village also has three war memorials, a tennis club and the Stepps Bowling Club founded in the 1900's.
The hotel itself has been extended since its time as a family home to a local politician. The recent refurbishment within the hotel has honoured the remaining original features whilst capturing a modern and luxurious feel throughout.
We are just a 10 minute walk from Stepps train station, with direct links to both Glasgow Queen Street (23 mins) and Edinburgh Waverley Station (30 mins). There is also a bus stop directly opposite the hotel which features a service directly to Buchanan Bus Station within 35 minutes. If you are travelling from afar, we are located just a 19 minute drive from Glasgow International Airport. Additionally, our reception staff will be more than happy to organise a taxi to your onward location at your request.
