    We have stayed here before and everything was good there was no where to have a drink and the breakfast needs sorting

    The location is very near to Glasgow Central and a 7 min walk to Queen Street on arrival we went to pay and what they asked for was wrong but was rectified when I questioned this the breakfast was very poor bacon rock hard and eggs were solid we felt a bit intimated as there were a lot of unsavoury characters staying

    Check out time 10.30 and we planned to leave slightly before this. Mid stretch and mid shower, and before 10.30 the door knocked . Unsure really what housekeeping wanted .. I advised we would be leaving 10.30 and she left. Reception staff a little rude also . Need a light above the bedroom mirror .

    Comfy bed. Huge room..outstanding shower. Night porter polite .

    Strong smell of urine in the corridor's. Security guard present at all times. This is obviously reassuring but makes you wonder why there is the need for one. Expensive for what it is. Couldn't make Breakfast the next day due to the tap water - DO NOT DRINK THE TAP WATER! MADE ME VERY ILL!!!

    Centrally located. Nice large, clean room.

    the night staff weren’t very helpful. our electric went off early morning and when we went to reception to sort it out they weren’t very helpful. we did however next morning find trip switch to get back on. the management refunded the room for our trouble. we would go back to stay was good value for money

    we liked the location of hotel. some parts of hotel bit dated but our room had been updated breakfast was good value

    Not what I was there for, and not a criticism, but I got the distinct impression that this is not the hotel for a quiet romantic break!

    Very nice room (better than I was expecting). Very centrally located and although the hotel is only 2 minutes from Glasgow Central Station I found it was very quiet, even on saturday night. Big breakfast room that is fully self-service with a good cooked selection.

    Glaswegian friends made us worried about this stay, said this hotel’s reputation was horrible. But, with Coldplay gigs on, there wasn’t a room left in Glasgow. We were pleasantly surprised on arrival - plenty of staff, quiet floor, nice room. We could see there were people living in permanently but it was quiet.

    Good location, spacious room. Housekeeping staff did great job keeping quite an old interior clean. Very quiet on a night despite the hotel being full.

    Breakfast was poor. Cooked breakfast available but no continental. I was disappointed as I’ve stayed here many times and breakfast is always good with both cooked and continental. No remote control for the TV and no bin in the bathroom. No bottled water in the room and no tea or coffee despite all of this included in the price.

    Lovely renovated room. Central location.

    The hotel is in two half's, the section that needs refurbishment and the other half that is done, just make sure you are in the right half and you will have great value for money and excellent location. The breakfast was good everything you need.

    We got a refurbished room which was lovely very comfortable beds and gorgeous bathroom

    For those unfamiliar with Glasgow, the hotel is located in a very central but slightly dodgy area near to Centeap Station.

    The room was recently refurbished to a high standard and the bed was very comfy. the buffet breakfast was very good.
