In Glasgow to sign an important deal and no hotels available apart from The Grand Central. The address worried me but I have to say the hotel is charming, spacious, brilliantly restored and the suite I had (John Logie Baird) was wonderful. Reception incredibly helpful and the retro feel, including the book on the history added to my brief stay.... More

Stayed here for two nights on a bed and breakfast rate. Room was very comfortable and clean. Breakfast was of a good standard with a good choice of hot and cold items with excellent service by all the staff. I found the hotel to be of an excellent standard and excellent value for money. Will definitely stay here again.

Just returned home after a three night stay at this lovely hotel. It had been recommended by someone who had stayed recently on a business trip. We are reasonably familiar with the beautiful city of Glasgow but hadn't stayed here previously- we were determined to treat ourselves this time! We were not disappointed. We would have loved to look around... More

My husband and I had an overnight here recently, and although it's a stunning building in an excellent location, our experience was let down by the poor service. Firstly the good bits: The building itself is awesome. I'm very familiar with the building as we used to have our Toastmasters meetings here every fortnight when it was the old Central... More

Half a block from the airport bus stop with much of the building recently renovated. Interesting blend of old and new architecture. Ultra modern room and bath, where I couldn't figure out how everything even worked! Sadly, only there one night on a tour, but enjoyed the short visit. Was the start of tour so we had an open bar...

Considering this hotel is connected to the Central Railway Station, my stay was amazingly quiet. I chose this hotel for this reason, and because it received such good reviews on TA. I was not disappointed, I had a spacious room, view over the roof of the station, and the room was well appointed and had WIFI. I spent two days... More

Wonderful historic hotel in center of Glasgow. Its a short walking distance to George Square where the tours to highlands leave from, also very close the Buchanan shopping street (second biggest shopping center in the UK). The rooms are fantastic very modern well appointed. Huge vaulted ceilings in the rooms.

This hotel is attached to the train station, but don't let that deter you. It is a perfect spot for business or leisure travel. The rooms were large and well appointed especially for European standards. Good shopping and restaurants are nearby.
