One night stay in Twin room .

Nice clean spacious room. Was quite cold when we first checked in. Rang reception who said they would sort it. After an hour it was still cold so went down to reception, was given a portable heater, thought it was a bit strange I had to take it to my room myself but anyway it heated the room up. Our room was right outside the lifts so was quite noisy through the night and early morning with people coming and going . Beds were very comfy and the room very clean. Breakfast was great, lots to choose from and staff really friendly. Would stay again but would probably ask for a room away from the lifts.

We stayed for one week during our first international trip and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. House keeping cleaned the rooms daily and were very thorough; parking was directly across the street and affordable compared to other parking locations! The St. Enoch shopping centre and Princes square along with all downtown amenities were all within walking distance! Daily complimentary breakfast was very good with many options! We had an excellent stay!
