DoubleTree by Hilton Glasgow Central
Fantastic location for a shopping trip. We are two ladies in our mid-70s and early 80s, and this was an excellent, accessible hotel. Very comfortable and within walking distance from amenities and shopping district.

Holiday Inn Glasgow Airport by IHG
Fabulous location, 4 minutes walk to Glasgow Airport. Large lounge areas, very private. Bar and dining very good service and food. The rooms could use a bit of an upgrade, nothing seriously wrong at all. A few little facelifts. Highly recommended.

Motel One Glasgow
This is not a luxury hotel, but the breakfast is very good, the rooms are fine, the location is outstanding (particularly if there's train travel involved), and the staff could not have been more helpful.
