Review of voco Grand Central 4*

This was the hotel we stayed in after our wedding and we returned recently when out for a night in Glasgow (to escape a particularly rough week) and spontaneously decided not to go home so we checked in here! We managed to book a deal on my husband's phone for just £71 including breakfast. Staff were welcoming and friendly (we didn't get any funny looks or comments regarding checking in at midnight with no luggage, haha! ) and asked if we'd stayed with them before. I mentioned it being our wedding hotel and they welcomed us back asking when we got married, etc (I was having wishful thoughts of free upgrades but we were given a normal room). Our room was lovely (although obviously smaller than the large room we booked for our wedding which was before the suites were finished after the refurbishment in 2011) and a very good size with large wardrobes, usual coffee/tea making facilities and a good size bathroom with a bath. The room also had a bottle of complimentary sparkling water and 2 little Lily O'Brien's chocolates which is a nice touch. As we were about to make our way down to the bar to get some prosecco (to avoid the room service charge) there was a knock at our door and room service had brought us 2 glasses of pink fizz to welcome us back to the hotel! So lovely and very appreciated! The white sheets were nice and crisp and the bed very comfy — just the tonic we needed that weekend :) Breakfast was also nice (the sausages have improved since our last stay) although not amazing but we loved the mini pancakes, made fresh at the press of a button on the machine next to the buffet. My only little niggles being — the room was quite draughty (although there was a heater provided) and the curtains don't close, there's just a blind which doesn't prevent the cold air blowing in. And at breakfast, each time our teacups were filled they were filled almost to the brim if you don't pay attention and ask the server to stop! No room for any milk never mind the masses I like to add.
