Argyll Hotel
This hotel was very basic. On the plus side, we managed to get one of the few parking spaces. The room was quite hot and there were no glasses or bottled water. The hairdryer was old and sounded and smelled like it might catch fire so I gave it a miss. The staff in the breakfast room were very nice ...

Courtyard by Marriott Glasgow SEC
Can't fault the hotel at all. Checked in quickly and had a cracking corner room with great views of the Finnisten crane, Armadillo and Hydro. Had some lunch which was really nice and fairly inexpensive for hotel food. Would definitely stay again.
