Stayed here on a personal sightseeing trip - but only because I got a free room courtesy of the Marriott rewards program. The room was fine - excellent large bed and well appointed bathroom. However, for business use, this hotel is still back in the stone age.
Nowadays, I expect high speed internet access in a hotel - wired or wireless, since I need daily access to email and business data. This Marriott offers nothing but dial-up access from your room - at 29 pence per minute! I will not be using this hotel for any upcoming business trips. Lack of good internet access is a major flaw for any serious modern hotel - it was even a drawback on my vacation trip since I was using the internet to get information about the various places we wanted to visit in the city.

Having stayed here for one night over the Christmas holidays, we chose the Marriott again last weekend. We got 3 single rooms at the rate of 74 pounds per room per night including breakfast. The breakfast was just as good as the previous stay; the rooms were just as clean and the beds just as comfortable. The only down side was the fire alarm going off at 3 in the morning and everyone ended up outside in the cold for about 10 minutes. It was a false alarm and we were like the walking dead the following morning. (Apparently it had happened on the Friday night as well but we stayed Saturday and Sunday). However, it's nice to know that if there WAS a fire in this high rise hotel, the alarm is loud enough to wake the dead and it was pretty easy getting out. Oh, and I'm still looking for those neds!!

As I live only 20 miles from Glasgow, I know the city very well. Having stayed in the Moat House, Langs, City Inn, SAS Radison, Central Hotel, Hilton and Bewleys during various weekend stays, I can honestly say the Marriott comes out top in all categories. We stayed there for my husband's birthday and as I am almost 7 months pregnant I expected to be grouchy and fed up and unable to get comfortable. This was not the case at all. The staff were incredibly attentive, friendly and efficient (not a ned in sight!)the rooms were spotlessly clean, nicely decorated and of a good size with a comfortable bed and great shower. The food was delicious and the Marriott breakfast was fantastic. Out of all the hotels in Glasgow we have stayed at, we both agreed this is one we would have no hesitation in booking again.

We have stayed here several times, each time in a suite with a large bed, great view and a living area. The rooms are great - clean and spacious. The breakfast is fantastic, very varied selection, hot and cold.

The staff however, are terrible. They are what we Scots call 'neds' (yobs to you non-scots). The reception staff stank of beer and cigarettes and were so hungover they could never properly understand us. All the staff spoke and looked like they came from the rough areas of Glasgow. They frequently swore and made crude jokes around guests.

Location is great - taxis nearby, concert hall and shops nearby, the glasgow tour bus goes by the hotel.

The hilton is a better place to stay or the city inn. Although breakfast isn't included in the latter, the rooms and staff are great.

Excellent Hotel. Late 12.00 checkout is a bonus. Leisure facilites good but pool could have been a wee bit warmer. Resident ceilidh band "Bahookie" was terrific. Well worth staying the night just to listen to them.
BEWARE! Do not touch anything in the mini-bar unless you intend to consume them. The notice "inside" the fridge tells you about the sensors - when items are moved you will be charged. How are you supposed to have a wee rumage about I wonder.
However all in all a terrific hotel, great room, great sevice. Food fantastic in the restaurant and the buffet breakfast was to die for.
We have stayed at the adjoining Hilton and it compares very well if not better in some areas, especially lounge area and entertainment. The bedrooms are better quality as well.
I would recommend this hotel to anyone.
