Terrible manager with Terrible attitude.
Pros:

Once again I have write another bad review about this hotel. This is second time I have been really badly treated here. So it isnt just a coincidence. We were trying to book in on Saturday night but the staff were telling us we were booked into the Premier inn at St Enochs. This reference number had already seen the rest of our party get their rooms. But we were assured that we were booked into St Enochs. So we got a taxi to the other hotel, only to be told that we were definitely booked into the Gorbals branch. So got a taxi back and again the same outcome. Obviously by this stage we were quite annoyed. So now comes along the manager, who from the outset had a terrible attitude. It ended up with him refusing us into the hotel, as he was offended.
So do yourself a favour and stay well clear of this branch of the Premier inn. By the way, the lady dealing with us at St Enoch's branch, was excellent.

Awful noise from adjacent room(s)
Pros:

The room was generally fine apart from a badly peeling counter edge. It was large (not complaining about that) but it made it seem under-furnished and a bit unwelcoming. Nice, clean, recently refurbished bathroom. Good water pressure in the shower. BUT: awful noise from room above, continuous clumping and bumping from feet. and at 5:30 in the morning a fan started up with a noise like a rocket and was still running when I left the room at 9am. And more clumping from above. No way I could get back to sleep. Dreadful night. They couldn't move me for the second night (hotel was full) which fortunately was less noisy.

Reliably good
Pros:

Great location for city centre and not too long a walk back from Hampden Park. Rooms were good as they always are at a Premier Inn. Friendly, welcoming staff throughout.

Hotel needs a full refurbishment and better maintenance
Pros:

I really don’t understand the recent good reviews. Staff is nice and area is convenient. I had to stay there a few times for work and every time room was cold, very noisy radiator, black mould and dust on walls in the bedroom (room on top floor) and in the bathroom.
They are currently refurbishing the elevator but should really refurbish the whole place!
Very disappointed, usually premier inn are better than this.

Short break in Glasgow
Pros:

This hotel is convenient as it is approximately 15 mins walk from the city centre. It has excellent parking which costs £9 a day, but that's par for the course nowadays. The room was clean and comfortable with plenty of room. We did have an evening meal but breakfast was good with plenty of choice. We would definitely stop there again.

Great room, awful customer service
Pros:

Room was great, customer service was less than average.
No one looked like they wanted to be there. Not helpful at all and didn’t even smile at you when you walk into the hotel! Not helpful whatsoever and were rude.

Overnight and breakfast
Pros:

I recently stayed at this hotel and had a really nice experience. The room was clean, comfortable, and had everything I needed for a short stay. I also opted for breakfast and was a good start to the day, plenty of choice and everything tasted fresh. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout my visit. Overall, a solid and pleasant stay. Would happily book again.

Cleanliness issues and insect found during stay
Pros:

I stayed at the Premier Inn Glasgow City Centre South for 3 nights. Unfortunately, I found an insect on my bed on the second night, which could possibly have been a bedbug (photo attached). There was no suitable alternative room available at the time, but the team was very friendly and provided fresh bed linen.
Overall cleanliness was below expectations.
Staff throughout my stay were kind and helpful, but the cleanliness issues and the incident significantly affected the quality of my stay.

Average for a premier inn
Pros:

Hotel is nice and close to glasgow centre , but you have to pay for parking £9 guest rate for 24 hours should be included in price of stay to be honest ?? Operated by horizon parking , plenty of spaces available but no security on either entering or leaving , so what is the payment for ?????

Room was nice and clean with comfy beds . Had to ask for extra towels and pillows but that wasnt a problem
Very quiet room to be fair was facing busy road but didnt hear any noise and the blackout curtains made a huge difference

Very major negative about this hotel is the breakfast bar . Mega small for the size of hotel. Had to queue in morning for a table for family of 4 and 1 of the mornings had to have 2 seperate tables
Also food dishes empty most of time. Constantly had 2 ask if there was any more food available , bacon eggs etc .
No clean cups avaulable again had to ask for some
Not enough choce on the continental side of the breakfast. Just croissants and nothing else

Overall wouldnt stop here again due to parking costs and especislly the fiasco at breakfast times

Felt sorry for the staff in running around non stop
Simply not enough staff for the size of hotel

Plus is Plus
Pros:

The new Premier Plus rooms are a step above the older style. Fresh feeling and loved the wireless charger beside the bed. But the small other extras like a coffee machine and fridge make such a big difference

Does exactly what it says on the tin - excellent!
Pros:

One of the reasons I book with Premier Inn is that I really like to know what I am getting! This one is no exception - as always, it's very good value for money. As an added bonus, it's well set back from the road so it's blissfully quiet at night. We stayed for 3 nights - Suzanne was on reception for part of our stay and is such a lovely welcoming person. Breakfast was a particular highlight - efficient, friendly smiley service and a delicious selection. We would certainly stay again and are happy to recommend it.
