Motel One Glasgow

The location couldn’t be better for families with lots of luggage—right next to the central station makes getting in and out a breeze. That said, it’s also close to a few bars, so there can be quite a bit of nightlife activity at night. It was generally safe, but on one occasion my family and I were walking back after buying water when some drunk people started shouting at us and asking for a lighter—definitely an unexpected moment! Still, the hotel itself was excellent overall. Clean rooms, great staff, and super convenient access to public transport. Highly recommend for travelers who value location and comfort.
