Frommer's Review
When this hotel in Glasgow's Central Station first opened in the 1880s, it was perhaps the grandest the city had ever seen, and subsequent guests included Churchill and JFK. Traditionalists are likely to take a shine to its historic attributes: whether the baronial, highly polished wooden staircase or the elaborate Victorian cornices and pilasters. The guest rooms, with high ceilings and large windows, now have interactive TVs and modernized facilities.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
