Book Accommodation

Posted by fa2008 21 March 2008

I always find that it is a good idea to book accommodation before I get to a place, it saves you hassle and leaves more time to enjoy the city.

There is a wide selection of accommodation available in Glasgow, the city centre is good but noisy so don't be afraid to go for somewhere on the west end or just outside the city - after all, the public transport is pretty good and easy to use, so you could be into the city in a few minutes!

For those with an unlimited budget try the Radisson and for those backpacking their way around, Euro Hostel is good value for £20.

At peak times avoid long waiting times for your taxi - pre-arrange a transfer with a local taxi company prior to your arrival. Some may only pick up from just outside the terminal.

Look them up on Google or call directory.

Twofatladies - fish restaurants

Posted by AlanBrine 7 December 2007

Three great restaurants. Relaxed and friendly atmosphere; superb fish with stunning desserts - the trio of creme brulee was superb and enough to share.

Not cheap but worth every penny. Don't miss it - the two TV chefs borrowed the name, with permission. Named after the first to open at 88 Dumbarton Road.

118a Blythswood St G2 - close to Sauchiehall St
88 Dumbarton Road G11
and a new one in Argyle St.

Friendly and comfortable Scottish family-run hotel. Very relaxing for a weekend away.

On the doorstep of The Isle of Arran, great golf courses and other attractions.

Very nice restaurant and bar, and the rooms were very clean and comfortable too.
