Completed: November 2018

System: Aluprof

Value: £109k

Main Contractor: Robertson Construction Central West

Description: The 181-bed Moxy Hotel was completed in 2018, with Robertson serving as main contractor for developer Vastint Hospitality.

Located on High Street, the hotel also features a breakfast bar and drinks bar in addition to meeting facilities and a gym for guests. The hotel was built using modular techniques, with sections of the hotel created off-site before being connected and completed by construction experts on-site. Marshall Brown provided the curtain walling for the development, using the same Aluprof system provided with the room modules.

David Cairns, managing director, Robertson Central East, said: “The new Moxy Hotel will help address the clear demand in Glasgow for additional rooms. Working with Vastint, we have been able to create a modern hotel that will prove popular with guests, and the use of modularisation has allowed for quicker construction with no compromise on quality.
