The iconic Grand Central Hotel in Glasgow has today unveiled the results of a lavish makeover of its champagne bar.
Known as one of the city’s finest establishments - having been graced with the likes of Frank Sinatra and Fred Astaire - former Miss Scotland and TV presenter, Jennifer Reoch, helped to launch Champagne Central which overlooks Central Station in the heart of the city’s Style Mile.

As part of the opulent refurbishment, Champagne Central has upgraded its décor, created luxury new seating areas, exclusive booths, marble tables and an extended bar to cater for its extensive champagne and gin offering.
The original domed ceiling, marble floors, and regal pillars have been accentuated by the recent works, enhancing the bar’s character with a nod to its rich heritage.
