The Torrance Hotel is located in East Kilbride, near Glasgow. This historic building has always been the hub of the local community. It was built in 1773 as a cotton-spinning mill incorporating workers’ houses, by General Stuart of Torrance. The building has had many uses from a school, shop and coaching inn, and you’ll still find many of the building’s original charm and features. Today the hotel is still the hub of the local community and it is a busy thriving hotel which is popular with locals. Visitors can enjoy a relaxed and welcoming restaurant, and an open, airy conservatory which can accommodate fine dining, private parties or intimate get-togethers. A beer garden offers flat screen televisions and is a perfect spot to watch all the big sports events with a collection of friends. The hotel has 17 comfortable rooms and a beautiful honeymoon suite which has its own spa complete with sunken bath. The train station is a 5 minute walk and a train will take you into the heart of Glasgow.

The Torrance Hotel is often celebrated for its spacious and modern rooms that come with a lively atmosphere, thanks to the fantastic DJs and elegant decor. The hotel's service garners mixed reviews, with many guests complimenting the staff's professionalism, while some have encountered slow responses. Cleanliness is a strong suit, with particular praise for the well-kept en suites and grounds.
The amenities, including beautiful gardens and a luxurious honeymoon suite, are generally well-regarded, although not all guests are impressed. However, the value proposition is contentious, as some visitors criticize the pricing, despite others finding the wedding packages to be reasonably priced.

The Torrance hotel chose our school, St Vincent’s primary in East Kilbride, to benefit from their community give back Christmas parties. Primary 1 and 2 went one week and primary 3 and 4 the next (the latter I attended as a parent helper). We cannot thank the staff enough, who gave up their time voluntarily to provide such a special occasion for our children. There was a fantastic dj, face painter, entertainer, chef, waiting staff and many more who all put in such a shift that I can hardly believe they did it for free. Their enthusiasm and attention to detail was wonderful to see and greatly appreciated. The Manorview Group provided us with transport, the tables were beautifully decorated, there was plentiful food, juice, ice cream, sweeties, dancing competitions, goody…

Hi Eilidh and the Events Team, we just wanted to say what a wonderful night we had with you all on Friday 28th November at the Conservatory. Everyone really enjoyed themselves. The staff on the night were very attentive and professional. Compliments to the kitchen staff also. The food was amazing. The venue was stunning. The tables were all laid out lovely and the staff had even put all the name cards in place. We didn’t have to do anything on arrival. The whole organisation of the night was made so easy because everyone was so helpful leading up to it. A huge great big thank you to all concerned. We couldn’t have asked for a better send off for Shirley.

Food delicious (thank you chefs), service impeccable with special mention to Shauna who was extremely attentive. Highly recommended and we will certainly return to try the Sunday Roast lunch which appears to be excellent value for money.

My wonderful cousin and I chose the Torrance Hotel due to its close proximity to where she was staying in East Kilbride. A decent menu, we both chose the grilled rib-eye steaks at £32 each, one done to medium and mine 'blue', ie still wriggling! In fairness, a rookie mistake on my part since I have never had a decent grilled steak of any kind. I much prefer pan-fried, where the heat is much more direct and controllable. Two rather stringy - devoid of any decent 'marbling' - steaks appeared. Whilst they were edible, they would win no prizes for taste, seasoning or yield to the knife. Winding up with dessert, my cousin chose the chocolate offering, whilst I settled for an Irish coffee. Anxious to leave, 20 minutes passed before I asked the waiter how my Irish coffee was coming…

I just want to say how amazing the Torrance Hotel and the staff are! We got married here on the 28.10.23 and we could not have asked for anything more. Infact the whole day was well above our expectations! From the minute we viewed this venue we fell completely in love with it. Right from the very minute we walked through the door on that first visit, the staff went above and beyond! A massive thank you goes to Eilidh, our cordinator, we would have been completely lost without her and the advice she gave us! Also to Paula and Dominic who made sure our day ran smoothly and kept us laughing, calm and constantly entertained throughout. The rest of the staff played their bit from making sure the bridal party had everything we needed the night before when we stayed, to the day after…

We were married in The Torrance 2 weeks ago. The whole process from start tp finish was a wonderful experience. Eilidh and the rest of the team couldn't have done enough to make our day special. Myself and bridesmaids stayed the night before, breakfast was delivered to our room with all requests even if not on the menu catered for. The wedding meal was delicious and the dj was fab. He had everyone up dancing all night. A special mention to Dominic our master of ceremonies, everyone just loved you and Amy our wedding manager on the day. When I say all the team I mean reception/housekeeping/bar &restaurant staff too. The honeymoon suit is just beautiful and needs to be seen to appreciated. The Torrance will forever be special to us and we will definitely return for an…

We cannot thank you all enough for the fantastic wedding day you helped us plan! We had the most magical day and it was down to the wedding team at the Torrance hotel. Eilidh & Lynsey you have been amazing throughout this experience, a huge thanks to Paula for making sure the smooth running throughout the day and Dom what a party starter nothing was too much hassle for you and I thank you all so much! We were booked in the day before and had a meal in the beautiful conservatory with family and Paula went above and beyond for us then as well. The grounds were impeccable and the rooms were very spacious and modern! A hidden gem! I cannot wait to come back and celebrate with you guys again ❤️
