Great location for those arriving by train at Glasgow Central - just a few meters from the eastern exit. Very friendly and helpful reception staff. Free tea, coffee and cakes. Great breakfast. Local buses and taxis close by.

Staff was great and room very comfortable. Fabulous breakfast. There was scaffolding in front of the building next door which made entrance tricky to find but not a real issue for us. We had a great stay.

Grasshopper Glasgow is unique in that it's an hotel within an existing old building. It's super clean, well run and ideally placed right in the very centre of Glasgow. It's within walking distance of all the train stations and bus station. It is in the middle of the busy city surrounded by shops, Street food eating, restaurants, bars and all of the city's history. A gem in the centre of a wonderful city. Can't fault it

This was our second stay in the Grasshopper. Room and bathroom were spotless. High quality bedding giving an excellent night's sleep.. Toiletties provided. Lots of little extras. Staff friendly and helpful. Security door staff on Duty. Downside was only teabags on inroom tray. No coffee, sugar or milk provided. Overall stay was very good and would stay here again

Quite difficult to find property as on 6th floor of building. Very poor guidance at reception on arriving. Quite small room but very comfortable bed . Breakfast facility's very restricted with purely self service. Very polite girls in attendance, but lacking experience to clear tables and provide assistance. Waited 10 minutes for receptionist on checkout.

My friend and I enjoyed this property greatly. It's hard to find something so clean, friendly, and accommodating in such a central location. Elizabeth even printed us out a list of restaurant suggestions in the area that helped us a great deal for our brief stay. Would definitely stay here again as it's a steal for the price. The free pastries and ice cream was a plus for sure!

The hotel is unassuming from the outside, and with construction all around, I was a little worried. The sign outside is small. The location is awesome, right outside the train station in downtown Glasgow. When you enter the building, you have to go up to the 6th floor to get to the hotel…different. Once you get there, the reception area has cakes, which is a nice touch. The room was fairly spacious (I got upgraded to a double), though it looked a bit austere. Everything was clean, and the shower was nice. The TV only had a few channels, which was frustrating because there was a soccer match I wanted to watch. Breakfast was a buffet. The fruit salad was really nice, the hot options were fine, but the pastry was a day or two old. There was a bit of street noise at night, and construction noise in the morning. Overall it was a good stay for the price, and the location is super convenient.

Clean, good location, friendly staff, free cakes on the lobby. 10/10 would stay again. The only downside is the toilet ventilation wasn't the best.

Enjoyed our stay, staff were fabulous. Lots of little extra touches, and clean. Only downside was I couldn't take the car to the door to drop our cases and my elderly mum. as only buses and taxis are aloud down the street. If I had realised that it is next door to Glasgow central Station, I would have taken the train.

This is a somewhat "quirky" hotel for an American traveler, but my stay was quite enjoyable. Incredibly comfortable mattress and pillows, and while the bathroom was small, it worked out perfectly. And the radiator in the room was perfect to dry out my shoes and clothes from a very damp stay during two-named storms.

If I could give Grasshoppers Hotel six stars, I would. For the price, it is convenient, safe, sparkling clean and very comfortable. And as an added bonus, the free snacks and morning coffee/tea/cocoa can’t be beat! My daughter and I stayed for one night, and we will definitely stay there again.

Had a single room. Small but cute. Bed was comfy. The entrance to the hotel isn't very obvious. You need to buzz in, give your name, take elevator to 6th floor. Slightly confusing when arriving in the evening. Everything was good

Amazing staff, room & location
I stayed for just one night but would've happily stayed longer. Friendly and welcoming staff when I first entered, offered free cakes & desserts that were available to all visitors. The room was very spacious and had lots of places for storage. Bathroom was also very spacious with a good shower. Bed was also very comfortable & theres the options of windows or a fan to cool you down if needed. Just a few doors down to the side entrance of Glasgow Central train station and within walking distance to any city centre shops/restaurants/pubs
