Glasgow Hostels

Stay in any of the Glasgow Hostels and you’re guaranteed good times. Glasgow is renowned for football, and a game is definitely worth seeing. Glasgow’s theatres, festivals and outdoor performance centres ensure you are always entertained, and its multitude of art galleries and free museums (we recommend the Centre for Contemporary Arts and the Burrell Collection) can be reached via Glasgow’s hop on-hop off double-decker bus tours.

If you love nightlife this University town has uncountable pubs, clubs and live music venues. If you want a quieter time, visit Glasgow’s beautiful public gardens or take traditional Scottish tea in one of its tearooms.

Glasgow is conveniently located in greater Scotland, and many Glasgow hostels offer daytrips to Scotland’s wonderful lochs, landscapes and cultural centres.
