Top Riverside Museum Hotel Reviews

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel and reasonable price . Close to the bus stations and tour pick up spots. The staff were friendly and helpful. The area was safe too - we would come back late night and had no problems"

Clayton Hotel Glasgow

The Social Hub Glasgow

10/10 Excellent

"Just brilliant:) will definitely stay again"

Sandyford Hotel

8/10 Good

"Lovely location and nice property but the rooms could use a little sprucing up. Still a good, quality stay!"

Village Hotel Glasgow

8/10 Good

"Would of been all stars if the food wasnt burnt"

YOTEL Glasgow

10/10 Excellent

"Affordable rooms in the perfect heart of the city location. Friendly staff and lots of useful amenities. There’s a bar and bowling alley upstairs which was unfortunately under renovation but it’s a great idea to have. Excellent stay"

Moxy Glasgow SEC

8/10 Good

"The hotel feels like a budget version of the Marriott brand. There’s everything you need and it’s to a good standard but more basic. It feels like it’s aimed at people not spending a lot of time in the hotel. Staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good, nothing fancy, it had the feel of a uni/college refectory with a good amount of choice for £15pp. If looking for somewhere to use as a base then it’s a good base to start from for the sec and 20/25min walk into the centre."

Glasgow Marriott Hotel

8/10 Good

"The only reason for giving four stars rather than five was in relation to the Leisure Club. The pool is very shallow at one end (I could actually sit on the floor of the pool and have my head above water). This makes it unsuitable for swimming lengths, although I am sure it is very good for children. I would have preferred it to have been the same depth for the whole length. On the positive side, the staff were very friendly and helpful. I can mention by name Euan, who sorted out my check in, but unfortunately can't remember the name of the lady who sorted my check out. When I discovered that I had left an item in my room, I called back and it was very quickly retrieved for me."

Radisson RED Glasgow

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic stay from the fuss free check in until we left. Lovely room, spotlessly clean and quirky toiletries in the bathroom. Huuuuugggeee bed. Quite possibly the comfiest bed I have ever slept in. The Sky Bar is great with fantastic views of the Hydro, Armadillo and the Clyde. The bar snacks and cocktails are lovely and the food in the Oui Kitchen was very good. Overall a very enjoyable stay. Will definitely return."
