I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The rooms were clean and tidy, meeting my essential criteria for accommodation. They were modern, very clean, with comfy pillows, a fantastic hot powerful shower, huge white fluffy towels, and surprisingly quiet despite being in central Glasgow. On the downside, the room was a bit cold.

Staying at Grasshoppers Hotel was a delightful experience. The rooms, though a bit dusty in places, were spacious and boasted a very comfortable bed. The service was top-notch, showing genuine care for the guests' personal experience. The location, right next to Glasgow Central Train Station, couldn't have been more convenient. The dining experience at The King's Lodge was pleasing, with a good selection of dishes. Overall, a great value for money choice with some minor cleanliness issues in the rooms.

I had a delightful stay at the hotel! The rooms were bright, airy, and a nice change from the historic places I had been staying in recently. They were spotless, nicely furnished, snug but comfortable, and attractively designed with beautiful furniture and art throughout the hotel. The service was top-notch with incredibly friendly and accommodating staff who welcomed me with free cakes and ice cream in a cozy lounge offering complimentary tea and coffee. The location was ideal for exploring Glasgow on foot, just outside the train station, making it convenient for my travels. The modern interior and thoughtful details like free cupcakes upon arrival added to the positive experience. Although the dining experience was good with fresh, quality ingredients, the breakfast setup could get hectic during busy times. Overall, a fantastic choice with great value for money!

The hotel's rooms are bright, modern, and clean, featuring a clever little bathroom design with a sliding door to maximize space. They had kettles and tea available, but unfortunately no milk. Facing the Main Street, the rooms provide everything needed for a comfortable stay in the heart of the city, whether for business or leisure.
