Had to stay one night extra in Glasgow unexpected. Hotels where fully booked all over, but found one room left at this hotel. Was skeptic when I entered the hotel. Floors really uneaven, needs to be refurbished? and I got this "shabby feeling" when entering the reseption area. Cheap hotel perfectly situated in center of Glasgow, nearby the train station...

I stayed here for a conference over 3 days due to its close proximity to the Marriott. The area wasn't great and all surrounding buildings were boarded up. The room was basic, which was fine; accept heavily stained on the carpets and curtains. My window was broken 'open' and took all day to get someone to come and look at... More

The photos look better than the real thing. The outside puts you off going inside. Cancelled room .i would suggest better suited for guests who require less expensive accommodation .The area is very depressing but for a base to just sleep in. The reception was also in need of some urgent attention. I did not make the bedroom.

We spent 3days, big cosy room, excellent service, work desk available, tasty breakfast and what else? Excellent location to city centre and Glasgow central train station. Very welcoming staff. Definitely will book again and recommend to any one or couple want to visit Glasgow for business or leisure.

I've stayed here a few times, and the staff are always helpful, breakfast is fine, and the rooms are clean and comfortable. Not much more to say really. Will go again if I need to be in that part of Glasgow, near Argyll st. I mean

This is a very central hotel with clean rooms and a very generous breakfast. Friendly staff. Central station is only around 200 metres away with lots of shops and bars in the area. The rooms look good inside and are kept very clean. Common parts such as corridors could do with a face lift but surely are not a reason... More
