Stayed in the City Inn one Saturday evening in July. A little disappointed to find that the car park was closed, and although directed to the nearby SECC car park, I felt that it would not have been difficult for the hotel to advised of this in advance of my arrival.

The hotel is ideally situated for the SECC and Glasgow Science Centre - tourists beware that it is a good 20 minte walk from the city centre.

Room was spacious and well equipped (an iMac rather than the standard tv), and was clean and functional.

Breakfast was a little disappointing - the bacon was microwaved and the toast was less than appetizing.

Overall a reasonable stay.

Stayed 1 night heading north to Skye. Loved the cofortable rooms all with Apple computers and free wifi. The location isn't the best and you really need a taxi to get into the city centre which the staff can arrange very easily. Breakfast was excellent and unrushed. Its a great stop over and will stay again.

We arrived quite early with our flight from Dublin, so took de train from Prestwick into Central Station of Glasgow. On the way I remembered I had not told the hotel bout our early arrival, so gave them a call. They did not make any problems and told us a room would be ready as soon as we got there. From Central Station it is half an hour walk but luckily the weather was dry and we did not have too much luggage for our 2 night stay.
At arrival we were told that they could only give us a smoking room on the street side (do bare in mind we had not given any preference before and early check-in is at their discration when rooms are available), so we decided to go into town and leave our bags with them. When we came back after 3 o'clock we were greeted by again very friendly staff who explained us where everything was in the hotel and the times for dinner/breakfast etc. We got a lovely non-smoking room overlooking the river Clyde (as we had asked for), non smoking and (to my boyfriends delight) an iMac computer/tele.. The room is clean and well stocked if you plan to use the mini-bar.
This review is maybe a bit long, but again I am seriously happy we stayed at the City Inn.. Another great experience!!

My daughter and I have just returned from this lovely hotel.
We had an overnight stay as we were attending a pop concert.
The hotel is a short walk from the SECC and that is the reason we chose the hotel .
Reception was welcoming and we were informed of the location of the restaurant , our room etc
The room was exceptionally clean and well presented { keep up the good work !}
We stayed in a twin room which overlooked the river Clyde.
The room was adequate for our needs and we loved the I- Mac t.v!
Two very minor grumbles-
The bathroom was extremely small and the shower did not have a lot of "power " in it, {more like a slow trickle}

Continental breakfast is buffet style but hot breakfast has to be ordered once you are seated.
The waitress has to watch to see when you have finished your continental and then present you with the cooked breakfast.
When it is not timed right it can be a bit of a disaster as we found out.
We hadn't finished the continental and then the cooked breakfast arrived.!
That being said the continental and cooked breakfast were suberb.

Overall we would highly recommend this hotel, just don't tell everyone!
