Its size and layout suit both business trips and short breaks, with the Theatre Royal and Glasgow Central Station both within easy reach.

Staff are consistently described as friendly and helpful, and the hotel handles practical needs well, from luggage storage and laundry service to meeting rooms for business visitors.

What guests say
We stayed here for one night while visiting. We came in via a train and as it was only 10 minutes walk from the Queen street station and central to our plans, it was a perfect location for us. First and foremost, the staff were friendly. This unfortunately was the only positive experience (oh yeah, free breakfast). Had few issues while staying here. Elevator - only one was working during our stay and it's very small, can only fit 3 or 4 adults at a time. Luggage Storage area - as it's do-it-yourself, it was a mess in the room, a better system needs to be in place to ensure spaces are utilized efficiently. Room - had double bed and a sofa bed. They need to move the sofa bed so it's by the window. When you expand the sofa bed, it leaves you like 2 inch gap between the bed and the desk to use to access the bathroom. Hotel WIFI - talk about super slow wifi system... never been to a hotel where their wifi was slower than walking. I don't know if they are using dial-up modems, but they need to get this fixed.

We stayed at Holiday Inn Express Glasgow City Centre Theatreland for one night while attending the Metallica concert, and everything was excellent. The staff were very friendly and professional from check-in to check-out. The night staff were also very welcoming and helpful, which we really appreciated. Housekeeping did a great job, our room was clean, comfortable, and well prepared, and the corridors were also very clean and tidy. Breakfast was good, fresh, and nicely presented, with everything kept clean and well organised. The hotel location is very convenient, close to the city centre and only about a 10-minute walk from Glasgow Central Station. Overall, a very pleasant stay with great service, cleanliness, and location. Highly recommended!

The hotel and rooms are fine for a night or two when visiting Glasgow or requiring a bed when attending a show or gig etc. (I’m not sure I would like to stray for more than 2 nights. Very little in the way of wardrobe space. Buffet breakfast is acceptable. The staff are very polite, friendly, and efficient.

We had a problem with the window not sealed correctly in the first room so a wind coming through and lots of street noise. Got moved to a second room which stunk of weed. Third time lucky the room was fine but we were glad it was only for a 1 night stay. However, what I really need to mention is how fantastic the staff were. They handled the situation extremely professionally and were more than understanding of our issues. They apologised and moved us rooms without any issue. The staff really are a credit to this hotel!
