Glasgow’s City Parish Hall officially reopened as The Collector’s Hall at the weekend, following a significant transformation into a dedicated venue for weddings, corporate events and private functions.
The Grade A listed building, which sits just off George Square, has been restored and reconfigured as part of a wider development linked to the AC by Marriott Glasgow. It includes a glass-roofed courtyard, heritage features, and capacity for large-scale events.
Craig Munro, General Manager of The Collector’s Hall and AC Hotel by Marriott Glasgow, said, “Welcoming guests into The Collector’s Hall for the first time is a moment I’ll never forget. As General Manager of The Collector’s Hall and AC Hotel by Marriott Glasgow, I’ve had the privilege of watching this extraordinary building evolve – from a forgotten parish hall into one of the city’s most exclusive destinations for weddings, events, and conferences.”
He added, “With over 240 beautifully designed rooms, including heritage suites overlooking George Square, we’re offering something truly unique: a fully integrated venue experience in the very heart of Glasgow.”
Deputy General Manager Jennifer Williamson said, “The journey to creating The Collector’s Hall has been nothing short of inspiring. From the earliest planning stages to the final touches, it has taken a full team effort. Our hotel staff and operational teams have all contributed to transforming this remarkable space into something Glasgow can be truly proud of.”
