PUB chain Wetherspoons is reviving plans for a hotel development at one of its venues in Glasgow City Centre.
The company wants to use the upper floors of The Crystal Palace in Jamaica Street for hotel rooms and build a hotel on a neighbouring gap site.
It has submitted a proposal of application notice to Glasgow City Council, a proccedure required for major developments.
Public consultation over the proposals now has to take place before a planning application can be lodged.
No further details have been given so far.
In 2016 Wetherspoons applied to turn the upper floors of The Crystal Palace into hotel rooms and build a 103-bed hotel on the vacant land next door.
Permission was given in August 2019, but a month later the company submitted a revised plan, dropping the new hotel, and instead creating a two-level beer garden with seating for around 250 people. That proposal was later withdrawn.
