This was a Brilliant hotel, we got a room upgrade on arival, and the free mini bar was amazing. The bed was comfy and the room was massive. Its right bang in the middle of everything. Queens stree train station is next door and lots of places ro eat and drink around. The breakfast was expensive so we ate else where. But over all a very nice hotel.

One overnight stay after returning to Glasgow airport. The bus from the airport stopped right outside the hotel, and we were getting the train home next day from Queen St Station which ich next door to the Hotel. Very handy. A lovely room too, with well stocked complimentary mini bar fridge.

Modern comfortable room in city centre
We booked here very last minute on our way to Glasgow. We got a great deal and the room was really lovely and spacious. The bed was super comfy, it had a great shower and the complimentary mini bar was a lovely touch. Highly recommend a stay here, right next to Queen Street Station as well.

We had a mostly lovely stay at the Carlton George! The location is absolutely perfect - about 50 metres (or less) from Buchanan Street subway, a 10 minute walk to Buchanan Street Bus Station, and right in the heart of the city. We didn’t get the chance to try the restaurant at the top, but it looked popular. Reception was very friendly and helpful, The complimentary bar was brilliant, and the room spacious and comfortable (although a bit dated). The downsides were the following: there was hair on the bathroom tiles and in the shower from the previous guests and the flush on the toilet is terrible, even flushing a small amount of toilet paper can sometimes require 2-3 flushes. Additionally, and most importantly, it seems like wall tiles have been used as floor tiles for the bathroom - this, in effect, makes them very, very slippery, even without water being on them. Both myself and my friend slipped over in the bathroom whilst the floor was dry, because the tiles had no grip to them like standard floor tiles. I strongly recommend that the tiles in the bathrooms be replaced with tiles that are approved for bathroom floor use, as it is currently quite dangerous.

The location of this hotel was the main appeal for me. Dinner was okay, although the menu was a lot more limited that the details in the room suggested. Breakfast was better. The rooms are a little dated but comfortable enough and the complementary mini bar is a nice edition.

The chap working on reception on our arrival was very helpful. He was also there when we checked out and even though he’d worked late the day prior, he was very helpful again in showing us on a map where we wanted to go and offered to store our luggage. He was very courteous
