Overall Rating

Good

I decided to stay overnight in Glasgow following the Euan’s Guide Ambassadors event meet and review of both Glasgow Winter Markets. This Hotel was popular and often full, mentioned on Booking.com. As a budget Hotel with basic services and a price to match, could not fault it. It was exactly as described on the Hotel website and by uk standards a 2* Facility. The entrance foyer was ample in terms of space, stair cases to 7 floors and 2 lifts occupancy for 4 - 6 people ample space for wheelchair space and access. There was no car parking facility, but travelling by train or bus was only 40 m away. I was informed by someone who had stayed there last year, the breakfasts were buffet style, limited choice but plenty and it certainly was. The room I had was large and spacious, comfortable and well provisioned, each floor was fully accessible.

Disabled Access In and Around

Good

Plenty space, foyer a bit slippery given the weather, ample lift space on to upper floors, ample seating available if needed.

Parking & Transport

Poor

There in no disabled parking available bus rail and taxi close at hand given Glasgow Central rail station.

Accessible Toilets

Did not need or use other than in my room, plenty space enough for a chair and carer. I did not ask for a disability equipped room, but they were available on request.
