I regularly travel from Australia to Glasgow on business and have always stayed at the Radisson. It's a new, modern hotel in a great location. Close to the motorway, therefore just 20 mins to the airport, and central to shops, offices and Glasgow Central Railway station is only a stones throw away.
I usually stay here 3 times a year, anywhere from a week to a month (most recent stay). There is nothing outstanding about the hotel, but it's clean, modern and central. The rooms are a decent size with the usual stuff - large beds, tv, desk and bathroom (sometimes with a bath as well as a shower).
There is an excellent gym downstairs (part of the Fitness First chain I think) - lots of machines, free weights and a good sized pool. Reception has a decent lounge, with a small bar and a free large pool table. There is another bar, a restaurant and a pretty good Tapas restaurant.
Breakfast is excellent, huge buffet both hot and cold. Chef can also rustle up whatever you want and at the weekends breakfast is extended to 1pm !
Staff are also friendly and helpful.
The inroom menu is a bit small, with the usual fare - burgers etc - but you can order from the Collage restaurant or Tapas restaurant.
The hotel is exceptionally popular with tourists of all nationalities and regularly (almost everyu night) hosts some sort of function. It never appears to be too busy though. And lots of locals wandering around in their kilts, if that appeals !
If you get a room on the second or third floor though expect to get some noise from these functions.
Generally a very good hotel to stay at for business or pleasure. Much better than the Hilton or Novotel. There may be more swanky places but for £89 per night including breakfast - I think this was a corporate rate - you'd be pushed to beat this.
