Find Your Way to Your Urban Shelter

Forget confusing street names and one-way systems, we’ve got you. The Carlton George Hotel stands right in the pulse of the city, ready to welcome you with open doors and a bit of proper Glasgow warmth. However you’re travelling, on foot, wheels or rails, here’s the easiest way to get here.

By Car

We’re right in the centre, so a few helpful notes first:

West George Street is pedestrian-focused from 7am–7pm (buses and taxis only during these hours). Don’t worry, we’ve partnered with two nearby car parks, both just a 5–10 minute walk from the hotel.

Local tip: The short walk from the car park to the hotel? Consider it your first taste of the city. Keep an eye out for the architecture, the street art, the energy.

By Public Transport

Getting here by public transport couldn’t be simpler.

Train

Both Glasgow Queen Street (3-4 minutes) and Glasgow Central (6-7 minutes) stations are just a short stroll away.

Bus

Buchanan Bus Station is just a few minutes from our front door and connects Glasgow with cities and towns across Scotland and the UK. From here you can easily travel to places like Edinburgh, Stirling, Loch Lomond and the Highlands.

Subway

The closest Subway stations are Buchanan Street and St Enoch. Perfect for zipping across the city in minutes.

Airport

Travelling from Glasgow Airport is straightforward.

The Glasgow Airport Express (Bus 500) runs every 15 minutes and stops at Buchanan Bus Station, just a short walk from the hotel. Journey time is around 15–20 minutes.

Pro tip: Glasgow’s transport is handy, but the city really comes alive on foot. Wander a little. Take a detour. You never know what café, gallery or hidden corner you’ll stumble upon.
