After dinner, you can taste British culture at pubs such as Station Bar, Molly Malone's and The Raven.
The best thing about staying at Dobbie's Point is that it's within walking distance of Glasgow city centre, which offers the perfect mix of modern entertainment and history, with George Square, the Gallery of Modern Art and the Glasgow Police Museum all being famous tourist attractions that are well worth a visit. On the other hand, Princes Square Shopping Centre and Buchanan Galleries are perfect for shopping enthusiasts, offering hundreds of brand-name shops to suit any need.

The front desk service is very good, but it is not very convenient to pick up the express delivery time at a fixed time, and it has been decorated all the time during the stay, which affects the rest.
