Great stay and location for visiting Glasgow, particularly close to the main shopping areas which was great. Staff were super helpful and friendly allowing us to check in early and the free breakfast was great. We did find the rooms a little smaller than other Holiday Inns with the pull out sofa bed blocking the desk unit limiting space, but for a short stay it was fine.

The hotel was well located, on the Clyde River and close to the city center. Dylan was extremely helpful and friendly behind the front desk. He helped solve a couple of issues doe to delayed luggage, and gave us some terrific dining recommendations. Very friendly and engaging.

This Holiday Inn is an absolute gem! It is a very modern building and the facilities are excellent. The location adjacent to the River is perfect. The breakfasts were excellent. The staff first rate. The value was unequalled. What a nice, friendly, unpretentious, happy place to stay when visiting Glasgow!
