About the Hotel

36 North Frederick Street, Glasgow, United Kingdom, G1 2BS

Compact Urban Accommodation

The Z Hotel Glasgow offers 104 compact rooms arranged around a central lightwell in a converted Victorian printworks. All rooms include handcrafted beds, 40-inch Samsung HD TVs with free Sky Sports and Movie channels, free WiFi, and en suite shower rooms with complimentary toiletries. Room types range from Z Inside Single (8-9m², no window) to Z Queen (13-14m²) and an accessible Z Queen room with specialist shower and grab rails. Each room features under-bed storage, wall-mounted hanging space, air conditioning, and tea/coffee facilities.

On-Site Dining Options

The hotel serves a continental breakfast with fresh croissants, pastries, cereals, fresh fruit salad, and bacon rolls at the small Z café. The lobby bar provides drinks and light snacks throughout the day. Complimentary cheese and wine are offered to guests, along with tea and coffee available any time.

Central Glasgow Location

The hotel is located at 36 North Frederick Street, overlooking George Square. It is a 3-minute walk to Queen Street Station, 8 minutes to Glasgow Central Station, and 6 minutes to Argyle Street. The property is steps from George Square, the style mile shopping district, and Merchant City bars. Glasgow Cathedral is a 13-minute walk, while the Riverside Museum and Kelvingrove Art Gallery are nearby attractions. The nearest car park is on Montrose Street (2-minute walk).

Nearby Dining & Entertainment

The surrounding area features Paesano Pizza (Neapolitan sourdough pizzas cooked in wood-fired ovens), Browns brasserie in the former General Post Office building, and Rogano (art-deco seafood restaurant styled after the Queen Mary ocean liner). Nearby pubs include The Counting House (former bank with storage vaults), The Piper Whisky Bar (stocking whisky from every Scottish distillery), and Sloans (Glasgow's oldest pub where couples traditionally celebrated engagements).

Guest Services & Facilities

The hotel features an urban-industrial style with exposed brick walls and repurposed printing machinery displayed in the central glass atrium. The property attracts a mix of short-stay guests ranging from hipsters to mature European travelers. While the hotel focuses on compact accommodation, it offers complimentary WiFi, air conditioning throughout, and soundproofed rooms. The extremely compact bathrooms are separated from rooms with frosted glass, providing limited privacy.
