University of Glasgow

The Sandyford Hotel is located between the West End and City Centre of Glasgow, right on the doorstep of the University of Glasgow. Many of our guests are keen to visit the University, either to attend a graduation or just to explore the beautiful and historic University campus.

The University of Glasgow was originally founded back in 1451, and it is among the oldest universities both in Scotland and in the UK. The University's main Gilbert Scott building is one of Glasgow's most famous landmarks, and it's distinctive silhouette can be seen from all over the West End. And the Glasgow University Visitor Centre has won awards for its a range of interactive displays about the University past and present, and also contains a gift shop and cafeteria.

Glasgow University contains a number of items of special interest, including the G12 theatre, the Hunterian Museum and the Hunterian Art Gallery. The Hunterian Art Gallery not only boasts the single largest collection of works by renowned Glaswegian architect and designer Charles Rennie Mackintosh, but also has a reconstruction of the inside of Charles Rennie Mackintosh's house using original fixtures and furnishings.
