ABode. Glasgow - BarMC & Grill - a Michael Caines restaurant

This week has seen me in Glasgow on business and staying again at the ABode hotel, one of the group of boutique hotels operated by Andrew Brownsword and the two Michelin starred chef, Michael Caines.

I first stayed at the Abode, Glasgow in 2007 and was there every week for 5 weeks whilst working out my employer’s Glasgow city centre office.  In the 5 weeks I was there I stayed in a different room each week and I loved the slight quirkiness of this small hotel, formerly an Arthouse.  Located in the city's art district on Bath Street in an historic Edwardian building, ABode Glasgow is a unique boutique hotel that combines listed features such as the preservation of its white glazed bricks with contemporary style and design. The hotel has 59 bedrooms, rated Comfortable, Desirable, Enviable and Fabulous!  There are three upper floors housing the bedrooms, ground floor reception and main Michael Caines modern cuisine restaurant. The basement houses the BarMC & Grill for more informal bistro style atmosphere and menu featuring many char grilled items. The lounge bar serves a good selection of wines and cocktails as well.
