The two-pearl Glasgow Guest House offers bed-and-breakfast-style accommodations in a quaintly traditional semi-detached house in the southwest suburbs of Glasgow. Some of the area's prettiest parkland is nearby, and the city center is easily reached by road or rail. Its seven rooms, which include a two-bedroom apartment with a full kitchen, are clean and well-presented, though those facing the busy road can be prone to noise. The free, full Scottish breakfast is a highlight, though it's the energetic and welcoming presence of the owner that really keeps guests returning. For a budget property that's a bit more central, travelers could try the Premier Inn Glasgow City Centre - George Square.

Opened in 2013, this Park Inn outpost -- a mid-range member of the Radisson family -- offers contemporary accommodations in a building from the Victorian era. Although its 91 air-conditioned rooms try hard to be hip, they fall short of the mark decor-wise; the good news is that they’re comfortably equipped with walk-in power showers, flat-screen TVs, and free Wi-Fi. There’s a nice lineup of on-site features, too, including meeting spaces, a fitness room, and an Italian eatery. Plus the location is well positioned in the heart of Glasgow; it provides easy access to the financial district (aka “The Square Kilometre”) as well as to must-see sites and fashionable shopping or dining districts. But chain hotels abound in the area, so you may want to check out the nearby branches of Holiday Inn, Premier Inn, and Jurys Inn before committing.

Following the signature model of the Dutch chain, this upper-middle-range citizenM hotel is a chic, design-smart, and unerringly cool hotel set in the north side of central Glasgow. The location means easy access on foot to both plentiful transport links and most of the city's attractions. Interiors are inviting and hip, with plenty of space to lounge and soak up the funky surrounds. Rooms, however, approach pod-like in space with beds accessible from only one side -- though amenities are suitably high-tech. If room size isn't an issue, rates are very reasonable, although more space for your dime can be found at the Holiday Inn Glasgow City Centre Theatreland nearby.
