For international attendees, Glasgow Airport is only a short 15-20 minute ride to downtown. For anyone arriving by car, the centre is easily accessible from the M8 roadway.

Booked Lighthouse Suite at Novotel Glasgow Centre
5.0
The communication was fantastic, the venue was lovely for our conference of 39 (although it might have been too tight had there not been a meeting in the neighbouring room, which they graciously let us use), and the food was great. Would certainly book with Novotel again for future events.
