Great hotel, superb location! Perfect 😊
The Albion Hotel is a lovely hotel. The staff were very friendly and were super helpful when we had to arrive after 10pm. The room was spacious, very clean and comfortable. It is in a very quiet location too.
We were visiting the University of Glasgow and the location of the hotel was perfect for us - it was approximately 15 minute walk along very nice streets in the city.
We could park right outside the hotel from 6pm until 8am free of charge then we parked in the Kelvinbridge Station car park - the whole day for £7.90 and that included a return journey on the metro.
Couldn’t have chosen a better hotel for us, we were very pleased.

Great location easy to get around, friendly helpful staff.
The staff was exceptional. They were very friendly and helpful. We had an evening flight and they stored our luggage for the day after checkout. They even allowed us to drop off items we bought throughout the day.

We had a nice stay at Albion, got a lot of help from the friendly staff when we didn't knew that we needed it (for instance we got help to get a cab when the subway hadn't started in the morning - nota bene it does not start until 10 AM on Sundays). Really enjoyed our stay!

Much better than the chain hotels
Very clean and staff was extremely friendly. Very close to the subway station and lots of places to eat nearby. I will stay again and in fact I am staying there this summer.

The Albion is a fantastic hotel right in the heart of the west end of Glasgow. It is perfect for enjoying many great restaurants and shops in the area and wider city.
We were welcomed by Diane who was fabulous. Our room was in the adjoining property to the hotel. Everything was spotless. I mean everything! The large bed was also extremely comfortable.
We didn’t have breakfast option but the small dining room was well laid out.
This has to be one of the best value hotels in the city given its cleanliness standards and location.
It will become our go to hotel in Glasgow.
Thank you.

Phenomenal stay at a lovely hotel
Phenomenal stay with friendly and helpful professional staff. Hotel is well kept and comfortable. Easy access walking to area of interest or metro service.
Especially appreciated Diane and Gabriel in reception being so helpful. The coffee and tea reception room is very nice.
Highly recommend a stay at Albion.

Overall great hotel! Room was spacious and bed was comfortable. Be aware that the budget room is close to the kitchen so breakfast can be a bit noisy (makes sense for the lesser price). Great location and close to subway.
