Had a wonderful stay recently and would definitely recommend. Big shout out to John and Merouane at the front desk for their constant help throughout the night. I hope their tireless hardwork does not go unnoticed by management!

Overall a pleasant stay, bed is large and comfy, price is good, location is convenient and central, close to central station, nice bathtub, amenities needed are all there: hair dryer, toiletries, tv, etc., like the nice painting on the wall. Staff a check in was polite and friendly. Things to improve on: -it was a turn-off when a hotel staff come knocking on my door nearing check-out to ask questions, and she wasn't exactly polite or friendly. -wifi password can be included with key card or pasted in the room, had to head down again to get it after check-in.

Decent inexpensive hotel, close to the centre. Staff are very helpful and very polite. Rooms are very clean and comfortable, although a little dated but still nice enough for a short break. Definitely recommend.

Really good for the price! Comfortable and clean rooms, helpful staff and the location is relatively close to the center and a bus station of the express bus to the airport. We only stayed for one day before our flight but it was a good way to end our trip comfortably, especially considering it was a last minute booking.

Well located in City centre clean and tidy room and hotel whatsoever you do make sure you take your card with you as you'll need it in the lift if your on the 2nd floor or above. Shame about the lack of view but other than that it was a pleasant stay.

I am currently staying at the Clyde Hotel. It is minutes away from the city center and close to the beautiful River Clyde. The place is wonderful and the rooms are good and comfortable. The breakfast food is varied and they have a delicious fresh mushroom dish every day, which is my favorite dish, cooked beautifully. With a distinctive smile from the staff and cleaning service. On average twice per room per week.. I will request a small refrigerator for the room to store some drinks.. The place is beautiful and I recommend trying it

Liam who was behind reception on arrival was very helpful and friendly. Its a shame that the restaurant and bar was closed. The hotel was exactly like a premier inn. Seems like it used to be a Premier Inn but hasn't been updated. Needs decorated to put their own stamp on the place.
