Weekend in Glasgow
The hotel is centrally located, as part of Central Station.
The rooms are a good size, ours had a shower with concourse view. Beds comfy, safe and hairdryer provided. Lots of power point with USB.
The hotel is large an as such was hosting many Xmas parties. These didnt finish until 1.30 am and could be heard in the room. We could also hear the neighbour snoring, so if you are a.light sleeper this may not be the hotel for you.
Breakfast wasnt included in the room rate, but there are plenty of places local for food.

Unacceptable
Room adequate, clean today. WiFi not working in room. Kettle not working either. Breakfast appalling. Numerous hot plates and different empty despite different trips up. Food cold. Tables crammed in making venue uncomfortable. 20 minute standing in line wait for “hot” food from buffet then further 10-15 at toaster. One unisex toilet where there was line for too. No butter at breakfast. It’s a city centre hotel, go buy some. Just not acceptable given the nightly rate. Have stayed here on numerous occasions but this will definitely be the last.

Old favourite off ours been there many a time.
Only one complaint was the female bar manager in the champagne cocktail bar was extremely grumpy and not very attentive in anyway what so ever.
But that won’t stop us from coming back.

Grand Central
Absolutely wonderful stay, Dylan checked us in and couldn’t have been more helpful. Our room was spacious and well appointed with a cracking view over the station concourse as promised. Almost not noise could be heard from outside. We enjoyed the Champagne Bar and had a couple of cocktails made by James, these were superb. The food at breakfast was excellent, the only gripe we could have was having to pay extra for Eggs Benedict and the service was a little chaotic in the busy breakfast hall. But we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves overall.

MARVELOUS place!
I loved this magnificent pile of bricks in central Glasgow. A classic old hotel -- a little spooky here and there (as one would wish), marvelous long halls, friendly service and absolutely in the center of Glasgow, a city that won me over completely.
