"Working alongside Timorous Beasties has allowed us to infuse local touches and create spaces that provide inspiration for all delegates and attendees, as we set out to become Glasgow's leading hotel for business and leisure.
"With plenty of industry-leading conferences, board meetings, and team getaways already on the calendar, we're eager to welcome more guests into our revamped spaces and foster opportunities for creative collaboration right in the heart of Glasgow."

The refurbishment also includes two breakout bars and improved catering options.

As part of the redesign, Radisson Blu partnered with Glasgow-based design studio Timorous Beasties to create wallpaper designs for the event spaces.

"Drawing has always been one of our main preoccupations, we feel it's a definite part of our DNA."
