Best Hotels in Glasgow
Glasgow has several distinct neighbourhoods within a short taxi ride of each other. Here is how to choose between them for a first meeting or a longer evening.
The Merchant City for a polished first meeting
The Merchant City's grand Victorian streets hold some of the city's smartest hotels, bars and restaurants. It is central, easy to find and easy to leave, which makes it the safe, comfortable choice for a first meeting.

The West End for a relaxed evening
Around Byres Road and Kelvingrove, the West End is leafy, easygoing and full of good places to eat. It suits two people who want a quieter, more neighbourhood feel, with an unhurried pace and far less noise than the centre.

Finnieston for something livelier
Finnieston, on the riverside side of town, has some of the best restaurants and bars in Glasgow. It is busier and more modern, and it suits a livelier evening between two people who already know each other a little.

What actually matters when choosing
Glasgow has two main stations, Central and Queen Street, and the centre is a grid that is easy to walk once you know it, so pick a hotel near whichever station you are using and do not worry about distance. The weather makes a good bar inside the hotel worth more than a good view outside.
