Expert reviews

Fodors review:

“One of Europe’s great Victorian hotels built when train travel was a luxury, this hotel located within Glasgow’s historic train station deserves its name, as everything about it, from the magnificent marble-floor Champagne bar to the ballroom fully restored to its original glory, is grand.”

Lonely Planet review:

“This handsome Victorian hotel is part of the Central station: some rooms overlook the platforms. High ceilings, vast corridors stretching into the distance and a fabulous ballroom are highlights of this throwback to rail’s golden age.”

Telegraph review:

“A generally stylish hotel with direct access to Glasgow Central Station, making it a great base for short stays in this culturally rich city. The lobby is great for people-watching; sink into a deep, comfy armchair and watch guests going to and from the station, just next door.”

The hotel was fantastic, staff were really friendly and chatty. Planning to come up again in march

Staff were excellent, friendly, efficient. Room was lovely and the location ideal.

I made a mistake and didn't think I had successfully joined the membership scheme but I had - I didn't get any points as such but that was my fault I think

Loved our stay at this Beautiful Hotel would visit again !

Such a beautiful Hotel overlooking central station with amazing history. We stayed there as we had tickets for a concert on Friday night at the OVO Hydro & it was so easy to catch the subway from the hotel. Staff are also very attentive & helpful.

The breakfast was lovely however we were put in the back room on both mornings which is dark & cold. Don’t know if this is down to the room we stayed in ?

Awesome

Comfy. Great location. Great staff. Great champagne bar. Clean. Big bathroom. Comfy comfy bed. Nice architecture. Dylan on the front desk was great.

We liked everything. The only recommendation I would make is to have a small fridge in the room for water and chocolate. It was brilliant though and we loved it.

Lovely, would go again despite the fridge incident.

The rooms, beds, and interior of the building were lovely. Enjoyed the free breakfast. Staff were amazingly helpful and friendly, and even compensated after our issue.

Cleaning staff did not fulfill their jobs, fridge stank due to old food left behind in it. Wifi was a pain to get into.

The VOCO Grand Hotel

The hotel is well appointed and the location is superb.

There is no heated towel rail in the bathroom and the 'always on' ventilation is noisy in the middle of the night. The heated mirror saved the bathroom as the fan that is on is not good enough to properly ventilate.
