Euro Hostel

It’s a cheap hostel, the beds are okay. I really wouldn’t mind if they would fit the room with a temperature control panel, fricking hot the entire night. Breakfast was shit.

Por 30 £ dos personas en pleno centro de Glasgow vamos que chutamos. Es antrillo aceptable, las literas son cómodas, tiene WiFi, ducha con jabón, para escrupulosos no porque el sitio es antiguo y da cosilla, para quien no quiera gastarse en alojamiento, éste es su sitio. Al menos no hay bichos, las toallas y sábanas están limpias y no hay goteras ^^ La zona es tranquila y no hay ruídos por la noche.

I actually booked a room at the hostel through an American company online after looking for a cheap room for a night out in Glasgow for my friend and I … At £23.00 per night, we were more than impressed with this ‘no frills’ private double room. Ok the shower was small and the sink was next to the bed … But who cares!!! It was clean and cheerful for the purpose of bed for the night. Great friendly staff, laundry room (I used the iron), games room, free wifi, brilliant breakfast, nice bar and very close to the night life etc. Definitely use this place again as I didn’t realise you could get a private double room … And if you want a heads up for the website I used? Getaroom … Happy hosteling.

Cheap and cheerful, nothing special. Mostly clean (although I spilled water on the floor and when I mopped it up… EW). Staff were a bit surly. Bar is average. You have to pay extra for breakfast and secure storage. Great deals on private rooms though!

While I have stayed in many cheap hotels without any frills and eexpectedvery little in regards to the room. I was floored by the smell of the room when I opened the door. It smells like a combination of pool water and cat piss. While I don’t expect the floors to be free of stains in a place this cheap, can they spend some money at the pound store for some candles and febreeze? They put more money into the lobby and restaurant then they do the rooms.

As other visitors have noted — you get what you pay for. We had a private room for two with bathroom en suite. While the complex itself is huge and amazing — café, bar, left luggage, lounges, bathrooms — and in a fantastic location at the heart of Glasgow, the plumbing and shower facilities in our room were disappointing. The elevators weren’t working very well in the building. Breakfast was also disappointing (soy milk please!). The price was unbeatable though. If you’re an easygoing type, this should do. This place is not for the high-​maintenance.

Low price = low quality
14£ a night p.p. including breakfast in a female dorm of 12 persons.
This what we get:
No working lockers (you couldn’t close the doors of the lockers so try to lock it with a lock (which you could buy for 2 pounds on the eeception) was impossible.
Toilet smells like swimming pouls and that didn’t get any better after a few hours, but they were clean.
Everything looks very used, so the floor shows you some dirty spots under the beds and in the corner. The shower was freezing: no warm or hot water to be found.
With a fire alarm there were no employees in the building, just two persons with walkie talkies down stairs.
The doors of the room aren’t closing well if you not slamming or pulling them to close.
The beds are clean and The rooms are big enough.
The including breakfast means: free tea or coffee, toast with butter and jam, cornflakes and milk and if you’re lucky some exotic fruits. If one of this things are gone: unfortunately for you, they wont refill.
Good places to stay cheap and just wanna drink and party in Glasgow. Otherwise: choose an other place.

You get what you pay for, so goes the old adage — and it applies here.
I pay about £20 to get a private single room if I’m staying here. It makes sense as it’s cheaper than a taxi home to my wee village after the last bus has gone, so being able to stay out late like a proper grown up is nice.
The rooms have always been functional, clean and secure. The toilet and showers are basic, the lift can be a bit dodgy (I usually use the stairs, so it’s a keep fit thing too, see) at times but at that price, and at that location, you can’t really complain.
Book through the website and there’s all sorts of money saving options. Use the code GIG15 and you can get 15% off if you’re attending a gig, for example.
The staff are nice and efficient, but as said, there can be some issues with not enough of them!
All the added extras you can slot onto your booking are pretty good too.
It wouldn’t be my first choice to stay if I had the cash, but for cheap n’ cheerful (and if all you need is somewhere to wash and sleep) it’s pretty much spot on.

I had a pretty decent experience here for it being my first hostel.
The website said there were lockers and wifi in every room however my 4 bed room had neither. I made sure I locked my backpack down to the bunk but the other girls in my room ended up being nice. The room was noisy and faced the train station (which I heard all night) as well as drunks in the street despite me being on the 9^th floor. The lift (or elevator for us Americans) was slow and sometimes didn’t work. The room was overall clean. Hardwood floor, bunk beds, a tiny shower and toilet. The kitchen area smelled a bit odd and the couches in the public room with wifi were old. The bar was nice and the staff friendly. Who can beat 10 quid for 2 pints and a burger?
I would stay here again but only for a few days. 4 nights was too many.

Das Hostel überzeugt durch seine zentrale Lage direkt an der Central Station.
Durch die direkte Lage zum Bahnhof ist es allerdings auch sehr laut, so dass man nachts eigentlich nur mit gecshlossenem Fenster schlafen kann.
Wir hatten ein Doppelzimmer incl. Dusche und WC. Bis auf die Toilette, die schon leichte braune Ansätze hat, war es insgesamt sauber. Die Zimmer waren allerdings relativ klein, jedoch für 2 Personen ausreichend.
Das Frühstück war inclusive und ok. Es gab 2 Sorten Toast, Konfitüre, etwas Obst, Müsli, Saft und Kaffee (der jedoch nciht besonders geschmeckt hat).
Das Hostel bietet kostenloses W-​Lan an der Bar und kostenpflichtiges W-​Lan auf den Zimmern, bzw. kostenpflichtiges Internet an Terminals in der Lobby.
Was mich massiv gestört hat war der Aufzug. Von 2 Aufzügen war einer defekt und auf den anderen musste man Ewigkeiten warten. Das Hochfahren war noch möglich, wenn man bereit war zu warten, das Hinunterfahren haben wir nicht einmal hinbekommen. Auch nach ca. 10 Minuten, wir haben solange gewartet, weil wr einiges an Gepäck dabei hatten, kam kein Aufzug, so dass wwir letztendlich die Treppe benutzt haben.
Positiv ist noch zu bewerten, dass man einen Rabatt für das Parkhaus bekommt. Wir haben für 24 Stunden so nur 6 Pfund bezahlt.
Alles in allem ist das Preis-​Leistungs-​Verhältnis OK, man darf halt nicht zu viel erwarten (vor alllem nicht vom in die Jahre gekommenen Ambiente).

Upgraded us for free to a private room which was really nice (and didn’t squeak!) except the shower had water going everywhere! Great water pressure though, especially for a hostel. Location is pretty good, right on the river and a 5 minute walk from central.

Pretty cheap place located near the centre of Glasgow (and with cheap I mean cheap and not low priced).
We got a 2 bed private room and it was really small (ok, that was expected). The shower looked like it was in need for a refurbishment for years already and there was no hot water at all.
The breakfast was made up of cereals and white bread with marmalade. For everything else you had to pay extra.
In the bar we where not allowed to show our St. Pauli shirts (because they are connected to Celtic).
The staff was pretty nice though.
The next time I will look for some place else to stay.

Sehr zentrale Lage, nettes Personal. Teilweise etwas renovierungsbedürftig. Mit eigener Hausbar und Internetzugang an der Rezeption. Preis /​Leistung absolut i.O.

There are 2 things going for this hostel. 1. Location and 2. Free wifi. That’s about it.
Lina G has it right… this is a college dorm. Except no one goes to school and has to study, so everyone is out partying instead. They’re all in the lounge area, in the lobby, in the bar, outside, everywhere. It is horrible.
I thought I had booked an 8 male dorm, but when I arrived they said I booked a 14 male dorm, but they were all full so they gave me a 4 male dorm. No complaints from me! Surprisingly, this is one of the few hostels where I got along with a roommate. He was a kiwi from New Zealand and we talked a lot about random stuff. We did have our separate agendas, so I went off on my own to explore Glasgow.
I was going to give a 3, but I think a 2 is better suited. If I’m traveling alone through Glasgow ever again, I’m avoiding EuroHostel. If I’m with someone, then maybe… you can’t beat the location.

This is basically like a huge college dorm – not a lot of character but cheap, efficient and central. However, they just do not have enough staff on duty. I waited more than half an hour to check in, there were lines at the counter every time I went up so was never able to get directions to where I was going.
When I went to bed, someone was already sleeping in it, and every bed in the room was full. I ended up sleeping in a conference room with a blow up mattress on the floor, unclean sheets. I should have been offered a refund or partial refund, as I didn’t get the bed I paid for, but I wasn’t.
They need more staff to make sure everyone is safe – I got hit on in a slightly frightening way by the very drunk bar patrons, and middle age hostel clientele (weird, right?) – and to make sure things run smoothly. That said, the staff there were really really nice, and the location is very central. Overall, if you aren’t looking for character, it’s a great place and much more central and cleaner than many other hostels I’ve seen. Should add that I stayed here last year, but doubt anything has changed since!

Wer mit dem auskommt, was früher Jugendherbergen zu bieten hatten, findet hier genau das Richtige. Ein Poolbillard, eine Dartscheibe und eine Wii sind kostenlos in Beschlag zu nehmen.
Die Osmosis-​Bar im Grundgeschoß bietet gute Musik und eine ausreichende Auswahl an Getränken.

great rooms for the price and good if theres a big crowd as rooms are big in a good area near bars and clubs and lots of food places nearby mcdonalds is only across the road.

I have stayed at the Euro Hostel on many occasions, always in a double or twin with private ensuite.
When it used to cost about £36 for 2 people for 1 night, I felt it was extremely good value given the fantasic central location of the hostel, the private facilities and friendly staff.
However, more recently it costs in excess of £50 for the same. I can only assume you are paying for the location as the rooms are quite dated, grubby and could do with a face lift.
Cant comment on the breakfast as we have never been up on time to sample it.
Now prefer to stay at Etap hotel, which although is further away on the other side of the water, only costs £32 for a (modern, clean) room that sleeps up to 3 people (no breakfast included here though).

I’ve stayed here twice now and have had a good experience each visit.
The map and instructions they provide on their website are easy to follow and it’s not so far to walk from either train station in the city.
I stayed in a larger room which was the cheapest option. The dorms are separated in to gender as well as mixed rooms. There was a couple of shower rooms and two toilets available in the room.
There are lockers available in the rooms so remember to take your own pad lock or nip to Poundland (you’ll pass it on your way down) they also sell them at reception.
There’s a bar area which is nicely finished and almost a solo venue in it’s own right. There’s a TV room with loads of tatty sofas to chill out on.
The breakfast available in the morning is an added bonus. You can help yourself to different cereals with milk or take some natural yogurt. There’s orange or apple juice as well as teas, coffee and hot chocolate from a small machine.
Watch your bread magically turn to toast on the conveyorbelt machine.

Clean and safe environment with nice enough rooms and fantastic value; prices start fromm £13.95 per person per night. There is a kitchen area where you can prepare your own food, as well as a bar which is also open to the public. The staff are helpful and can arrange trips for you eg tours. The breakfast is too basic for my liking; as someone who is wheat and gluten intolerant, I could not eat either the bread or cereal which was on offer so went without. In contrast, YHA hostels which are the same sort of price, offer cooked food. I would happily have paid a supplement and I noticed other customers also asking for this.
