Stuart Drysdale, director at Christie & Co, said: “We have had a long-standing relationship with Cosmopolitan Hotels and were asked to conduct a confidential marketing campaign to find a buyer for the hotel.
"MGM Muthu Hotels are expanding their portfolio in Scotland and the purchase allows them to significantly increase their room stock and secure a large hotel, with easy access to Glasgow Airport, and act as a starting point for overseas visitors exploring the Loch Lomond area and the wider west coast of Scotland.”
