Good rental price for such a beautiful space. Plenty of space. Good bar close by, amazing cocktails. Really nice staff on site.
Music connection was tricky, had to look for staff to help. Cant bring in external catering and their own catering was very expensive for an informal event. Email enquiries were not responded to prior to event.

Birthday Party · 60 guests
· January 2025
Good location and venue for a party.
We didn’t like at all the wildly varying cost paid by guests for drinks at the bar. The same bottles of Prosecco were charged up to £10 difference as were spirits. No clear pricing system, seemed to have been made up on the night by the individual server. This only came clear after the party when receipts were compared and guests raised it otherwise we would have raised this with the manager on the night.

Wedding Ceremony · 40 guests
· July 2024
Staff were very helpful from start to finish, answering every question we had.
A simply stunning venue which makes you forget you’re in Glasgow City Centre!
They ran a tight ship from which we could occasionally hear on the walkie talkies.
Food and drinks service was impeccable. Very little waiting times.
Too hot in Gold Room. Adjacent party was quite noisy.

30th Birthday Party · 40 guests
· June 2024
The courtyard is such a beautiful setting and I truly believe I couldn’t have chosen anywhere better for my partner’s 30th. The size was perfect, the staff were there when you needed them and so happy to help with anything at all. One of our elderly guests had a fall when getting into her taxi and the staff at Arta looked after her wonderfully, which wasn’t their responsibility at all but they were incredibly attentive and gentle with her. We had the most amazing evening with such tasty catering and I really can’t recommend Arta enough (specifically the Courtyard) for a special occasion. I hope I have my own party there one day!

Yes. Both spaces can accommodate 45 seated guests, with the remaining guests standing. It is a very casual space, so most people stand or sit in groups.
