Nice and cosy room, with contemporary
Nice and cosy room, with contemporary decoration. Staff were friendly, polite and helpful. Just a short walk away from St Enoch centre and Argyle St. Complementary continental breakfast was on the basic side. WiFi internet access is through The Cloud, which is quite expensive for the hourly charge. (Tip: The Cloud does have a much cheaper 'Monthly Subscription' which can be cancelled at anytime. Just browse the free access page on The Cloud when you are first connected -- this will not be shown on the first page, though.)

Good choice for center city Glasgow
This is one of the best choices for staying in central Glasgow, only ten minutes walk to George Square and no more than 20 minutes walk to all major center city attractions. Good breakfast, friendly staff, pedestrian rooms but for the price a real value

Good Location
I enjoyed my stay the breakfast was great. While I was there I got a very bad cold the girl on the desk was kind enough to give me extra tea bags , sugar and milk as I was sick in bed for a day. I would stay there again. Joan Chamberlain

Decent hotel with modern rooms,
Decent hotel with modern rooms, but a bit of a walk from the bus station. Not many restaurants nearby, and the nightlife is a bit thin. The Hotel itself is comfortable, free breakfast with many items, but Internet is a WHOPPING ten GBP per day. I used a wifi signal from across the way free of charge. They should NOT charge for internet.

Hyvä sijainti
Keskikaupungin palvelut kävelymatkan päässä. Aamiaiseen kannattaisi satsata paljon enemmän, vaikka hieman hintaa nostaen. Viihtyisä, rauhallinen hotelli. Huoneissa ei ilmeisesti ole keskusilmastointia, kosteus tiivistyi ikkunoihin.

Short walk from hotel
25 metriä Skotlannin, mahsollisesti koko englannin vanhimpaan bupiin;)
