Glasgow News!

It’s a real life toy story – Sarah Swain, Evening Times (26 November)

Yesterday’s opening of the world famous toy store Hamleys comes as part of a £100 million extension of the city’s St Enoch Centre. And the new shop has been designed to bring the magic and entertainment of the firm’s London store to Glasgow. Bosses have taken care to give the one-level store a special Glasgow touch, with a frieze featuring famous landmarks including the Science Centre, Clyde Arc Bridge and Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum.

A £100 million revamp of Glasgow’s St Enoch centre is set to boost shopping and tourism opportunities in the Scottish city. The first phase of the makeover is now complete and the shopping complex in the centre of Glasgow boasts the first stand-alone Hamleys store outside London. The toy shop is an iconic brand and it’s hoped the opening will boost the popularity of the redevelopment project and further cement Glasgow’s reputation as a popular retail destination.


The StEnoch centre's expansion adds to Glasgows already extensive variety of shops within the city centre and reinstates Glasgow as a highly popular shopping destination.

For all your Christmas shopping needs come to Glasgow and stay with the Argyll Hotel as we are just a short walk away from all of Glasgows major shopping areas! or just pop in for lunch at the Sutherlands for a break from a busy day of shopping! (14th of December onwards)
