We arrived in Glasgow by car and the Thistle is only five minutes off the motorway. All the staff were friendly, efficient, and helpful. Our room was enormous by modern standards, clean, and comfortable. After spending all day, each day, on foot visiting a variety of attractions ranging from the medieval Cathedral, to The Tenement House, to The Lighthouse, it... More

Excellent Hotel. Excellent Room. Excellent Service. Total recommendation and satisfaction. Well positioned for all the central things in Glasgow. An ideal location. Would not think of staying anywhere else in Glasgow.

I stayed at the Thistle Glasgow hotel from May 1 thru May 8th, 2013. This was not a vacation trip from my home in Canada. This was a compassionate/bereavement trip (immediate family). From the Reception Staff to the waiting staff in the restaurant (especially Donata) knew the reason for my stay, and treated me as if I was their very... More

Glasgow Thistle is very easily accessible from the M8 with the hotel website giving good directions to the hotel's multi storey car park which, at £12 for two nights in a city centre, we thought was excellent value. Check in was efficient and our room was a good size with what turned out to be a very comfortable bed. The... More

My husband and I stayed for one night only at this hotel. I wish it had been longer. From reception to restaurant the staff were fantastic and so attentive. The food in the restaurant both for the evening meal and for breakfast was really tasty. Definitely would recommend this hotel.

First time i stayed at the Thistle and the room was fine. Just fine. Bathroom was clean, bed was clean and comfortable. Carpet had sticky patches and the fittings in both room and bathroom had seen better days. Just fine.

Stayed Monday 13th May. The Thistle is a really well situated, reasonably priced, decent hotel in the centre of Glasgow. My room was a really good size although I could hear someone in the bathroom next door which wasn't pleasant. Other than that, though, it was pretty quiet. The air con worked well and the bed was large and comfortable... More

Love staying at the Thistle Hotel. Never been disappointed and slept in lovely executive king suite this time and to top it all we got free breakfast voucher which was lovely. Handy as just off Sauchiehall Street along from Dunnes Store and Primark so not far to bring your shopping lol. Car park facility is a bonus too. This is... More

Be sure to book a Premier room if you want more than one person to be able to fit in the beds. I actually called reception to check they had given me a double room as the bed was so small. Breakfast on the first day was disappointing. Got all excited when I saw Eggs Benedict (and other different dishes)... More
