10/10 Excellent

"I LOVE GLASGOW!!!!!! This was my first time visiting Scotland and my experience was incredible. This is a conveniently located hotel. The staff is wonderful here. The room was VERY CLEAN. I was traveling alone so it was the perfect size room for one or a couple. VERY QUIET and VERY SAFE. I will definitely stay here again when I return to Glasgow! What an AMAZING city. Thank you!!"

The Social Hub Glasgow

8/10 Good

"Great location in the city. Hotel and room was very clean, as with all hotels though, you get 4 small milk portions! Minor gripe as we like a tea and coffee or 2. Room has everything you need and is modern (signature room). Staff we met were all very friendly and helpful. I was surprised to learn that even as a resident, we were not able to buy a night cap to take to the room as it was 00.05. They obviously don’t have the license for that unlike other hotels. Would I stay here again, yes and it’s already booked"

Metro Inns Falkirk

8/10 Good

"Cheap and cheerful. Plenty parking. Great for motorways, staff great, local amenities good."
