This hotel is nothing like previous reviews!! I found it to be clean, tidy and convenient to the city centre. It must have been revamped since other people's comments!! Staff were friendly enough and it was good value for money.
Bathroom was clean and spacious, with modern fittings. I would definitely recommend this hotel.

This is, of course, the old Central Station Hotel ("Largest and Most Luxurious Hotel in Scotland" in 1910), with an entrance directly from the station, and ideal for anybody arriving in a strange city by train. Great tourist facilities within yards/metres.
I was delighted to find, after a century of decline in LMS and British Transport Hotels ownership, that it has been reinvented as a decent 21st century city centre hotel as Quality Central.
I checked in looking at the rack rate of £111 per night (single) in the lobby, plus £15 breakfast, but I had obtained a Scottish Tourist Board rate of £35 inclusive of breakfast.
[Eat your heart out Edinburgh. Why not use this hotel for the Edinburgh Festival - less than an hour away by train. Glasgow is also a fantastic city. Try a day excursion by train/boat to Brodick on Arran (£13) to see the Clyde at its best.]
Single room small but well appointed, view out over the magnificent restored glass roof of Central Station to the southern hills.
Old fashioned but "comfortable". Only disappointment was the lack of porridge for breakfast.
Plenty of cheerful young Scots staff trying to leapfrog a century in customer service and equipment.
Excellent location and value for money.

First, i've given it above average simply for the size of the rooms, bathroom especially and the grandness. The central stairway is the size of most hotels functions room. I was here for a wedding-we had the reception in the hotel. The reception room looked gorgeous how the hotel had decorated it-at their expense- the event coordinator was very helpful and friendly. The rooms were clean, newly refurbished and comfortable. I had no noise problems at all.

The only complaint i had was that they had spread all the guests over numerous floors (when they did have the space to accomodate everyone on the same floor, and those rooms were vacant at the time of booking) however this was only and organisational problem.
They are currently nearing the end of a large renovation-don't worry about noise, we were right next to the renovations and heard nothing.
They have a small but well equiped gym and pool, it is down a long and dingy corridor but apart from that it is really lovely and the staff are helpful.

I only wish i had taken photos, it was nice, clean and large rooms, they would illustrate this.

Stayed here on Monday night - foyer/reception seemed nice & our first room was OK. However, when we got back to the hotel after attending the Eric Clapton concert the room was horribly hot & stuffy. When the staff couldn't find a way to turn off the heater, they moved us to another room where the heater was off, but again the atmosphere was stifling, so we had to sleep with the window all the way open which meant we got very little sleep because of outside noise. Breakfast was disgusting - my travelling companion had the hot buffet, & said most of the food was stone cold. Despite the alleged costly refurb, & I would love to know what the money was spent on, this place will never again be on my list as even the vaguest of possibilities!
