As ever had an enjoyable stay in Glasgow with MotelOne, which never disappoints.
The staff were polite and helpful. The hotel is very well located next to central station and a car park. Although my room was a double and I was on my own, it was fine, very clean with a comfortable bed, I feel that it would have felt a bit of a squash if there had been 2 of us.
Clean, spacious hotel. No cooked breakfast!
Excellent stay. I got an upgrade to a huge new room
Room was small but pleasant. Photo on the walk was creepy. Overall not bad. Bar area could do with draught beer.
Another peaceful visit.perhsps pillows are a bit big?
The hotel is conveniently located right next to the train station, making it an excellent choice for travelers. The lobby is beautiful, and the room, although small, has a modern design. There were several downsides to my stay. First, the reception is not staffed 24/7. When I left the hotel, there was nobody at reception, so I simply left my key without having the opportunity to ask any questions. After 10 p.m., you also need to use your room key to access the lobby, which is inconvenient, especially when there are already people inside. Second, there was no complimentary bottled water in the room. While this is a minor issue, it is something I would normally expect in many other hotels. The biggest problem, however, was the noise. From 8 a.m., renovation or maintenance work was taking place in a room right next to mine, on the same floor. The noise was so loud that I could not sleep and had to wake up much earlier than planned. I had intended to spend the morning working in my room, but the noise continued for several hours and was still ongoing when I left the room at noon. Unfortunately, there was no telephone in the room to contact reception, and Booking.com did not provide an option to contact the hotel directly through the platform. This made it extremely difficult to report the issue or ask for assistance. Overall, the reception service feels very limited, serving mainly for check-in and document processing rather than providing actual guest support. Apart from its convenient location next to the train station and its beautiful lobby, I did not find any particular reason to choose this hotel again. The lack of guest support and, especially, the disruptive noise significantly affected my stay.
Loved the lobby area- great place to hang out!
I found this place to be soulless, almost grim. No trimmings. No frills. Expect more for the price. The shower floor got so slippery.
Lovely hotel. Great location. Friendly staff. Comfortable rooms. Complimentary toiletries. Nice bed. Only disappointment was no cooked breakfast.
The room temperature was unbearable air con non existent so so hot didn’t get a sleep and felt ill
I was pleasantly surprised with the quality of my room and everything the hotel has to offer . The staff are extremely helpful and very professional. I would highly recommend Motel One to one and all In the future I will be happy to stay again
Very comfortable bed, clean, very quiet except AC humming. Can’t change temperature so can be a bit on a colder side.
Every member of staff in all areas has the same wonderful level of friendliness compassion efficiency and cleanliness
Great stay but room issues. I'd booked two rooms and my friend had a stuck heating dial so the room was like a sauna all night (easily fixed) My room a small issue with the sink not draining but again easily fixed.
Lovely hotel very central. Staff very nice. Room lovely and breakfast and very good.
I love motel one. I was particularly appreciative of the kettle and coffee in the room. This is not common in motel one. I like to have coffee in the room. One thing I didn’t like was being asked to opt out of cleaning. We had just arrived after a long travel day and were disregulated. After agreeing, I asked about getting new towels and was told I’d need to ask for that or wait until day three. The next morning we asked not to be opted out. Rooms are small and it’s really nice to get fresh towels and have the garbage removed. We are currently staying in a different hotel brand that offers a 5 pound credit in the restaurant or bar if we opt out. Motel one didn’t do this. Please note the location right by central station is convenient but a bit run down.
Very clean and friendly hotel . Perfect location
A pleasant overnight stay in a spacious room with a good bathroom. Very handy for Central Station.
Good location. The room was very clean, with a comfortable bed. Lovely shower. Plenty of tea/coffee etc.
Great location. Spotlessly clean rooms. Perfect for a few nights in Glasgow
Great location. Spotlessly clean.
It was great and the staff were brilliant
We've stayed at the Motel One in both Edinburgh and Glasgow many times. We are very happy with the central location of both Motels. The rooms are small, but all that we require, as we are only there for sleeping. The breakfast in the morning is very good, with a wide variety of foods. The rooms are always very clean upon entry.
Easy central location, staff was very friendly and helpful. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable.
Our experience wasn't as we hoped I requested a disability accessible room as my husband has dementia and needs room to move about due to spacial awareness the room we got was great the bed the shower we couldn't fault it however our sleep was disturbed until 2 30am by loud banding music the constant stopping and starting of music our room faced the back of the station . We were exhausted the next day which ruined our experience at a show we were seeing on the Sunday after the terrible sleep .my poor husbands anxiety was increased through night he kept checking the door as he thought the constant beat from the music was someone at our door . For goodness sake if you put disable people in a room please ensure their sleep is not impacted to the extent they are unable to sleep . A room in a quieter area would have been better for us I appreciate the hotel location and the noise but surely disabled room should protect guests from the noise and disturbance we experienced .I paid 193 pounds for that one night and I'm sorry to say our experience was ruined as the hotel is beautiful inside the staff are so warm and welcoming its a shame I'm having to write thus response .
First time staying at Motel One, Glasgow and il definitely book again. Room was spotless, staff were friendly and attentive. The free water was very much appreciated. Thanks for a lovely stress free stay
Great position to all the amenities very comfortable bed and friendly staff at check in
Great location, very comfortable furnishings, decent products and bright & airy rooms. Staff were friendly and knowledgeable.
Great service. Particularly impressed with the dietary management and non-dairy (and non-soya) options at breakfast. The provision of an "oat milk" only coffee machine is revolutionary (not seen it elsewhere in a hotel) - please role this out across the board.
I can't fault it. The rooms are beyond comfortable, very clean with great facilities. The staff go above and beyond to assist and the level of hospitality is second to none.
Great location right next to train station ,lots of shops ,pubs ,although it's very central and very busy ,we slept very well and couldn't hear any road noise from in room
Really great hotel - centrally located and great price point. Higher level rooms can be really warm and it’s noisy with the window open so use ear plugs or get a lower level room. Bar could be. Better staffed
Good location very close to the station. Bed comfortable, quiet and black out curtains so a good night's sleep. Staff at check in were friendly and helpful. Nice bar with plenty of space and nice cocktails. My only complaint is the shampoo is like acid if you get it in yours eyes!
The facilities in the room were excellent whilst the room itself was spotless. All the staff were helpful & friendly. The hotel's location cannot be beaten.
Lovely reception and bar area. Very efficient and friendly staff. Dog friendly. Allowed to leave dog in room alone for a couple of hours. Room a bit on the small side but well lit and well equipped.
We stay here fairly often as it is very convenient for us - usually we don't have any issues but this time - 7th-8th October... we wanted a quiet room so we were happy to accept the 10th floor.... However, just as our head hit the pillow, we realised that there was a flushing sound from the bathroom.... this went on every two minutes for the rest of the night and we had to use earplugs to get to sleep... however, at one point we were both awoken by what sounded like water running down the walls!!.... THEN! again having fallen a aleep... the TV came on and we had to uplug from the wall.... terrible night's sleep unfortunately. No real response from reception either in the morning... We're supposed to be staying again in November .... !
Great but cannot connect iPhone to tv so if you’re not an android user it’s quite irritating if you’re not able to connect
smooth check in. Central location. Clean, modern room. Discounted parking was helpful. Too small of a space for 2 adults with luggage. No view. Need proper mugs and drinking glasses - plastic one was cracked; felt unhygenic. Street and train noise were heard when trying to get fresh air through the open window. TV reception was poor and would break up/pixilation.
We stay here a lot. Great staff. Rooms pin clean. Public areas beautiful. We will be back soon.
Great stay. Friendly and helpful staff, the lobby area was lovely, and room was nice enough. Not explicitly dirty, but some signs of built up grime on bathroom floor. My one complaint is the plastic reuseable cups instead of ceramic mugs in the room - they looked tired and stained, felt unpleasant to drink from, and gave my brew a weird smell and taste.
Really well located, clean and friendly staff. Comfortable bed. However, when asked to help with luggage due to injury they declined we do f have any porter or bell person. We also asked for a twin at booking but was given double.
The room was absolutely fine. My one issue with my stay was breakfast. If breakfast is offered until 10am there should be a grace period until 10:30 am. We were sat at 9:40 and 10 minutes later we were told to “get”anything else we wanted as the buffet would be closing at 10:00 am. At the exact stroke of 10, the staff proceeded to do the tear down. I’ve never seen anything quite like it. Also apparently the coffee machines are turned off at precisely 10am as well. One other observation is that the staff do not seem happy which of course impacts the overall experience.
Always enjoy staying here. Lovely staff and lovely rooms in a good location within the city.
Great location, close to shopping, trains, restaurants. Room was good size, clean and great views.
Great room and view, comfy beds, ability to cool the room off for sleeping, super clean, great bar and lounge area, super friendly and helpful staff. Thanks for a great stay!!
Friendly welcome on arrival. Rooms clean, good shower and comfy bed. Would stay again.
Great location friendly staff very stylish and spotlessly clean 😊
Cannot understand why I cannot charge drinks or coffee to my room! That is a service given throughout the world. Everything else was excellent.
Bit disappointed overall considering the premium price paid.

Glasgow
A centre of music and design on the Clyde
Glasgow is regarded as Scotland’s top shopping city, and regularly sets new fashion and design trends. So our affordable Design Hotel in Oswald Street suits the city perfectly, and offers visitors an oasis of relaxation with its individually-designed rooms and cosy box-spring beds. Centrally located in the heart of town, our hotel is a perfect base for your city break, short stay or weekend trip. If you’re travelling on business, You’ll be glad of our convenient transport links and free WiFi. Fortify yourself for a busy day with a healthy, organic breakfast.
Glasgow is Scotland’s largest city, and a popular destination for European tourists, attracted principally by its numerous museums, galleries, shops and pubs. The name of the city comes from the Gaelic and means “Green Hollow”: still, thanks to the city’s extensive greenery and parks, an entirely fitting appellation. Sounds tempting, doesn’t it?
Budget Design Hotels in Glasgow – your Motel One
Glasgow’s image is largely determined by its music and arts scenes. The city is regarded as a centre of alternative music, and has produced many internationally famous artist such as Amy Macdonald, Snow Patrol and Franz Ferdinand. A wealth of music venues and art galleries make Glasgow Scotland’s cultural capital.
There is just as much to appeal to history and architecture enthusiasts. Not far from our hotel, George Square hosts statues of famous people with a link to Scotland such as James Watt and Robert Burns. This central square is in turn close to Queen Street central station, and is the very heart of the city. It is also where you can find more information about cultural events, and book tickets for sights and performances.
Following along Cathedral Street brings you in minutes to Glasgow Cathedral, the oldest and largest church in the city, a superb example of Scottish Gothic architecture regarded as an outstanding architectural achievement. With its pointed crossing tower it makes a striking feature of Glasgow’s skyline.
Glasgow Tower, River Clyde and Gallery of Modern Art
The Glasgow Tower, an even more prominent landmark on the south bank of the Clyde, is the highest building in Scotland, ascending 127 metres high. The whole tower has an aerofoil shape and can rotate through a full circle; it’s regarded as a masterpiece of engineering and construction.
The River Clyde runs past the foot of the tower and not far from our affordable hotel. At night, its skilfully illuminated bridges make for a great photo.
Any fan of modern art will make a beeline for the Gallery of Modern Art which has permanent and temporary exhibitions on various themes, and in contrast to most of its peers, shows mainly works by living artists.
Come to our Motel One to make the most of this centre of music and design on the Clyde – We and the city are waiting to welcome you.
