Stayed at the Glasgow after chosing it for the location and price. Was very satisfied with the customer service, the atmosphere and the breakfast. We arrived knowing that it was not a large corporate chain or boutique hotel but with those expectations were very pleased with our choice. Would stay again

We visited this hotel in March 2013 and liked our stay here. We were pretty much travelling for entire day and came back just to sleep at night. So from our point of view location, clean rooms were important. Hotel is easily accessible from the central train station by a tram. Its walking distance to Hay Market station. It is... More

I paid AUD 198,- for two nights, which can be considered as cheap in Sydney (room with balcony). As some other travellers mention, the hotel staff is very friendly and the rooms are clean. For some reasons, I could not obtain an email confirmation for my booking (they spelt my name wrong and maybe I spelt theirs wrong as well... More

All the essentials taken care of... good quality bed, including the pillows, great shower pressure and sensationally friendly staff. Close to the city without the hustle and bustle, it is in the perfect location. Recommend this for anyone that wants the authentic Aussie pub accommodation.

Service was second to none - Friendly and courteous, fantastic warm service, great sized rooms, a traditional feel and quiet relaxing rooms, no over-the-top pre-auth from your credit card that takes 3 weeks to unfreeze your funds. Just great service, good location, great rooms. No hat tricks, no dodgy staff, no credit card dodges. Good people, good times. I'll be... More

This is a charming little hotel with nice old fashioned styled rooms. Stayed in a queen which was nicely appointed with colonial style furnishings and flat screen tv. Little balcony but honestly too much traffic noise to really sit out and enjoy. Hotel served a great bistro dinner at a good price and included a continental breakfast in the room... More

Older style hotel accommodation, clean and comfortable right in the middle of everything. Perfect to access to the convention centre. Friendly staff, more than helpful and free breakfast. On site restaurant and bar. Definiately recommended for business travelers or overnight.
