Hotel plan approved for former Merchant City restaurant
A change-of-use application has been approved to pave the way for a vacant B-listed building in Glasgow’s Merchant City to be transformed into a hotel.Located on the corner of Glassford Street and Wilson Street, the building was last used as a Mamafubu restaurant at basement and ground floor; chef’s training school and licensed delicatessen at first floor; and ancillary office space at the second, third, and fourth floors.The five-storey building, which dates from 1908, will now become a 31-bed hotel with a bar on the ground floor. There will be no alterations to either frontage, along Glassford Street or Wilson Street.The application, submitted by Merchant Properties Ltd, said the development would “bring a currently vacant building back into use”.
