The Spires Serviced Apartments Glasgow

We were staying in Glasgow as we had an event to attend at the OVO Hydro Arena. Uber was £8ish and we walked home which was about a 35min walk.||||We normally stay at Motel One when we visit Glasgow but since we are both on meal plans, we decided that maybe we should stay somewhere self-catering so we can make our own food. It turned out that this accommodation was cheaper than where we normally stay so that was good. ||||I didn’t get the payment link within the seven days like the confirmation email said but that was remedied with a quick call to request it by email and then we quickly got our instructions on how to enter the building, checking in instructions and of course, the all important NCP parking code that gives you a discount parking rate for parking on Glassford Road. We entered about 4pm on the Saturday and left about 10am on the Sunday and it came to £7.95 just to give you an indication of the price - not bad I thought. ||||The apartment itself was nice, well equipped but we forgot to bring cooking spray. Luckily there’s lots of little shops nearby. It was probably too big for the two of us, but great having an en-suite bathroom as well as a main bathroom. The lounge overlooked Glassford Road and as you can imagine was quite noisy on a Saturday night but the bedrooms were to the back and you couldn’t really hear a lot of street noise. Maybe muffled dance music but it wasn’t anything that kept us awake. ||||We were sad that we were only here for one night as the apartment was well equipped to accommodate longer stays and was comfortable enough to be a home away from home. We would definitely come back again on our next trip to Glasgow.

The location was great although the building itself is next door to a homeless soup kitchen which felt a little uncomfortable at night time. It’s very noisy at night but nothing you wouldn’t expect given its location and the bedrooms were at the back so not really a problem for sleeping. ||The apartment was a good size but tired and in need of an upgrade. It felt more like a student flat - cheap laminate floor, all doors were fire doors and kept closed at all times, bashes on the walls, dirty cup in the cupboard and no signal on the TV due to the aerial cable being broken. The living room light also had a 4000 mega watt bright white bulb in it that you could see from space! Not very welcoming. We actually took two bedside lamps and plugged them into the living room to give a more ambient light. ||The apartment was clean though and the beds were comfortable. The bathroom and en suite looked like they were recently installed and looked great. ||Gaining entry to the building is tricky too. There’s no buzzer even during business hours. They send you a code by email but it goes into your junk and you don’t know it ever arrived. We had to phone the number on the door to gain access. ||The staff were friendly though and allowed us to leave our luggage the following morning while we went for brunch. ||Overall it’s generally a bit grott but comfortable enough if your standards aren’t too high.

Spires Glasgow is a great central location. Close to trains, buses, and taxis in the heart of the Merchant city with excellent shopping, restaurants and bars. Apartment was clean and secure. Our Bedrooms were at the rear of buiding so were very quiet. Some minor details such as some minor wear in the flooring, and could use some fresh paint in areas. Otherwise everything was very good. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. They immediately responded to any of our requests for the duration if our ten day stay. We will certainly consider Spires on future visits to Scotland.

Love staying here, this was our 3rd time. It’s nice and central for everything. Already booked for January. The only reason I’ve given 4stars is because I had no mirror to dry/straighten my hair, the hooks were in the wall but hadn’t been replaced, the reception was closed for 2 days so couldn’t say to staff. Also, the apartments can be doing with a fresh coat of paint. Overall a fantastic place to stay.

Extremely disappointing stay. There was no hot water at all, and the apartment was cold with heaters not working. The rooms were unclean, and the beds were tiny and on wheels, making them very uncomfortable. To make matters worse, the apartment is right next to a homeless shelter, which made the surroundings feel unsafe — especially after paying such a high price. Definitely not worth the price and would not recommend.

The location was downtown and bus stops all around. The room was perfect - just as described. Shower was good. The kitchen had what we needed. The washer/dryer worked well. The area isn't ideal, but we had no trouble because we made sure we weren't out and about late at night.

Very modern, spacious apartments. Well located and very friendly staff. Easy check-in and parking in the neighboring parking garage. The room was clean and the kitchen well equipped. It has everything you need! I forgot something in the room and they sent it to me without any problems. Thank you very much!

Great central location. We paid an extra charge to bring our dog which was a plus point. The apartment was kitted out with all the amenities we needed. The building was secure and the front desk team were well organised and helpful.
