3-Star Hotels in Glasgow

My stay with the ibis hotel was somewhat mixed with both positive and negative. On a positive, the accessible room that I had booked was of a good size and the main bedroom area was clean. The staff on arrival were helpful and provided me with all necessary information upon check in. Sadly, I was disappointed when ordering from the hotel resturant. My son wanted a pizza and the menu provided a list of three types. When ordering, I was told that there was only one type which wasn’t listed on the menu. I found the food to be of substandard which is disappointing given the price. Equally on check out, I advised that the bathroom had a build up of dirt and hair around the shower tray. I was told “apologises, this is a housekeeping issue”. I voiced my disappointment regarding the food to just be told “sorry”. Lastly I expressed my disappointment that I was charged £12.99 per person for a breakfast buffet. I felt this was a bit steep considering my under 5 ate half a croissant. The front desk only advised that usually they did not charge for under 5’s and would need to take this up with the app I booked to is stay through. No solution or refund were offered.

We stayed at the Holiday Inn Express Glasgow - City Ctr Theatreland by IHG and were generally pleased with our experience. The hotel boasts an excellent location right in the heart of Glasgow, close to Buchanan Bus Station, shops, restaurants, and theaters, making it a truly convenient base for exploring the city. If you're visiting for a couple of days, the location significantly saves time and makes your trip much more comfortable. The hotel itself left a good impression. The staff were welcoming, polite, and ready to assist, and check-in was smooth without any unnecessary delays. Our room was clean, tidy, and perfectly adequate for a short stay: nothing overly luxurious, but with all the essentials. For a city hotel, practicality often trumps elaborate decor, and this was certainly the case here. The breakfast was also a pleasant surprise. It's included in the price, offers a decent selection, and the food was fresh and hot. It's great to be able to eat peacefully in the morning before heading out for sightseeing or business. While the hotel maintains a straightforward style, it's important to note that you shouldn't expect anything premium. Regarding the downsides, as with many city-center hotels, parking can be a bit of an issue. It's available, but might not be the most convenient, and even with a discount, it's not always cheap. Some other reviews also mention that the city center can occasionally be noisy, especially if your room faces the street, and in warmer weather, the air conditioning might not be powerful enough. These aren't critical issues, but they are worth keeping in mind beforehand.

Excellent hotel, located not far from the central station (about a 10-12 minute walk). The staff are excellent and friendly, and there's a good breakfast and a nice room. Everything is clean and tidy. No complaints.

A memorable hotel stay seamlessly blends comfort, exceptional service, and local charm. The experience begins with a warm, efficient welcome that immediately washes away travel fatigue. Inside the room, pristine cleanliness and thoughtful design create a personal sanctuary, featuring a plush bed and modern amenities. Delightful surprises, like a stunning window view or complimentary local treats, elevate the atmosphere. Exceptional hospitality shines through attentive staff who anticipate needs without intruding. Dining experiences, from a vibrant breakfast buffet to artisan coffee, celebrate regional flavours. Ultimately, a perfect stay transforms a simple lodging choice into a relaxing, unforgettable highlight of the journey.

The cleanliness could be improved. On my first day, I found a pink rag on the floor. Check-in and check-out are fully self-service. You have to shower while standing in the bathtub. Overall, the price is acceptable, and the location is decent, but the hygiene is just average.

Room was spotless and staff were helpful when needed. Right at bus stops going both towards Glasgow centre and in the opposite direction. The bus that goes directly to the airport is right outside the entrance for those who are needing to go to the airport. Minutes away from Kelvin Grove Park, museum and University of Glasgow. And wide range of places to eat and drink nearby. It’s more expensive than I would have liked to have paid and I extended my stay by couple nights and that costed more than my initial three nights which was a bit crazy. But if you have the budget it’s worth it.

Could be better..we wish that the receiptionist have more knowledge on assisting customer regarding Glasgow activities and transport. Other than that everything better than our London stay..affordable stay but complete..just amenities we need to request

Booked a twin room but requested for a double bed if available. Given a room for disabled, whice had no furniture AT ALL, except the bed. No side tablets even. Window pane was fixed. There's no ventilation from the room as pane is f8xed and to get to your room you’ll have to pass through a series of fire doors. Air inside is trapped from ages. I developed nasal congestion due to this. On top of this, we were charged with 5 GBP for keeping luggage in storage before check in. I don't recommend booking this hotel.

Great location. Stayed here before. Staff are friendly but it's really let down in other areas. Our room was filthy. Bed was fresh but the desk was sticky, carpet looked like it hadn't been hoovered in weeks and when I went to plug in my phone beside the bed there was the remains of someone's peperami snack lying on the floor. Bathroom had a brown poo mark on the loo seat (which we cleaned!) And the loo floor was covered in long black hairs. I am platinum blonde and my friend has long dyed red hair... We told reception who offered to comp us breakfast but we had already paid for it so they just took the feedback. We asked for an iron and ironing board, and they were really pitiful appliances. They could do with an upgrade for sure. Oh and during breakfast the coffee machine was fully broken and was being taken apart...

Mind-blowing! The hotel is in a quiet area, but not far from the shops and restaurants. The room was tidy and fresh, and the staff are polite and offer a warm smile
