Our History

Central Station Glasgow was opened in 1879 and the Central Hotel came shortly after in 1883. Designed by architect Robert Rowand Anderson in the Queen Anne style, the hotel is a great example of this architectural approach with its picturesque details, intricate gables and multi-paned windows. Over the years, the hotel was extended and adapted but the main architecture was maintained.

Grand Visitors

The Central Hotel took its place in history as the venue to whichthe world’s first long-distance television pictures were transmitted on 24 May 1927 by John Logie Baird.Since then Central Hotel has entertained most of the world’s leading politicians, from JFK to Winston Churchill and Hollywood superstars including Laurel and Hardy and Frank Sinatra, not to mention Roy Rogers and his trusty Trigger!  It was reported that Trigger had a bigger suite than Roy Rogers!
