Loved my one night stay here. Perfect for a solo traveller as right in the city centre and so walkable to everything. Staff were very nice and helpful. Continental breakfast includes cereal, pastries and fruit. The nice guy behind the bar offered to make me toast also. You can choose to get hot food if you prefer. Room was perfect and had all the channels. Could even sign into your Netflix account. Only issue was my room was right by the busy street and above the bar so it was extremely noisy all night as I stayed on a weekend. One other issue was there was a piece of carpet missing in the room by the window so I stood on a nail in my bare feet. Other than that I had an excellent time.

A small, not-fancy hotel with a personable pub perfect for overnight in Glasgow. Excellent location in formidable Merchant's City - close to trains and transport, shopping an restos. Pub had small but adequate variety of draughts but the kitchen put out a repast that was surprisingly fresh and tasty. Staff were very courteous. A nice change from the all too available modern sterile same-decor chain hotel.

Booked online, we were taken aback initially be Saturday night drinkers - but the room was comfortable and not poky, and all was quiet by the time we returned from the theatre. The continental breakfast was excellent, as was the service. The parking was not free, but 70% of normal overnight cost, so good - though NCP car park itself was very badly signed. Next time we’ll come by train!

Had an amazing stay

Had an amazing stay, staff couldn't have been more helpful and nothing was too much trouble. Room was a good size, very roomy, although it could do with some extra sockets as it was a struggle to use a hairdryer and straighteners, all mirrors were in the bathroom so that made it more difficult. Shower needs fixed as it wouldn't stay on the wall so a real struggle to wash hair.
Very convenient location, restaurants, shops, bars etc very close by.
Parking less than 2 minutes away, very reasonably priced with the discount card from Rab Ha's.
Continental breakfast was included, more than adequate to start your day, second day we paid extra for a cooked breakfast which was delicious.
A great central base so will definitely stay again.

This very small place is licated at the top of cozy little pub in the very center of Glasgow. It is a heavy stone throw from other pubs, clubs and restaurants. It is at the dead center of the lively city night life. It is convinient but also could be a bit noisy during morning.The rooms are basic but sufficient. All the pub personnel who also serve the rooms is friendly, helpful, and just pleasant beyond reason. This service make the breakfast a super nice experience.

Nice Hotel, Froendly staff

At first wasn't sure where to go to check in, but went to the bar which was a lovely area and very busy which was nice to see.
Staff were very friendly and polite.
The room itself was nice enough, bathroom was lovely and clean and looked fairly new. A few things in the bedroom perhaps need a change, tops of the bedside tables are coming off, the door on the wardrobe look a bit precarious.
But other than that, clean and tidy and the bed was comfortable.
I would have prehaps liked to have seen hot breakfast options, paying as much as I did I was disappointed there was no hot breakfast option as it could be working into the budget, even if it's just a bacon sandwich.

Glasgow character

Rab Ha's is \"rough and ready\" - it's an old building and first appearances (entrance and stairs) don't inspire confidence but don't let this put you off! It is an ideal location, the staff are more than welcoming, the food is good and reasonably priced, and the atmosphere is friendly with many locals choosing to eat there in the evening. The room we were in was fairly basic but it was clean and comfortable with plenty of tea and coffee.

We had a great two night stay as we attended a wedding at The Arta. It was great for location. Our room was compact but clean and comfortable. The staff could not of been more helpful from giving us directions to getting us more coat hangers. We did not have any issues with noise from the bar.. The only thing that affected our sleep was the bottle collectors early hours of the Monday morning. The breakfast we thought when booking was a full cooked breakfast but turned out to be continental... first morning, great with fruit, toast and cereals but the second morning there was no fruit. we did say that maybe some yoghurt would of been nice but apart from that it was great value for money. we had a comfortable stay and if we was in the area again would try to book here.

No porridge, hams, cheese and yoghurts. Wifi in bar was also poor. You are close to George Square. You are paying for location.

Its in an area called Merchants City. Beautiful old buildings, nice bars and restaurants and it must be near theatres (lots of theatre offers at these restaurants).

The room itself was quite cool, small but perfectly formed. Its 5 guest rooms above a bar. The renovation upstairs looks rushed/cheap but not really much to complain about. Breakfast is continental but not bad.
