“I always stay at this Holiday Inn when in Glasgow because the location, service, room, and food are all excellent. I've never been let down. Last week, I was struck by how polite, helpful, and professional the reception staff were. They always make you feel nothing is too much trouble. The food is consistently good – breakfast offers a great choice, and dinner in the evening was outstanding, with an excellent menu, beautifully cooked dishes, and a knowledgeable, helpful waiter. As usual, my stay was an enjoyable experience.”
