Brilliant hotel well deserving of all the good reviews it has received. Everywhere clean, modern and comfortable and all the staff we met were friendly and efficient. The breakfast buffet included a good selection of hot and cold food and we also enjoyed evening meals (lasagne and Thai curry). We liked the proximity to the river, Glasgow green and plenty of pubs and places to eat and felt that it was a safe area. It was a good central location for exploring. This hotel is great value and we will definitely return next time we visit Glasgow.

Room was very clean. Just dated. Staff was friendly and helpful. Hotel is not in the most exciting part of town. The streets and sidewalks weren’t as clean as other towns in Scotland. Breakfast was good and included.

The hotel inside was excellent with very respectful and efficient staff who offered a wealth of information. The breakfast was first class and well presented Unfortunately, the hotel is located in an area of Glasgow which is still being redeveloped and in serious need of improvement however, it was only a short walk to the centre and good attractions
