There was a post about the purple hotel a while ago.

Maybe call the new number for the hotel and see what they say?

Otherwise I'm sure yesindeed or someone of the locals will have other ideas next time they log on.

shock horror i know, i'm answering this question

okay a decent hotel near the arena, personal recommendation is the Swallow Hotel on Paisley Rd West, clean, kid friendly and has a swimming pool if the kids get bored. cost you between £60 - £80

there is also the travel lodge down at the springfield quay (across from Etap) which might not be full yet

all else fails i got a tent and a back garden you can borrow

There is also numerous hotels at Glasgow airport.  There's a Holiday Inn with rooms which can take up to 4 people for £64.  It's only 4 miles from Braehead and Greg's travel guide tells you the bus numbers etc from the airport to Braehead - I'm sure it's the 747.

I had trouble finding the "new purple" and getting a travelodge too gonna try to find a hotel again tomorrow.
Since flying back & forth home to Amsterdam isn't much of an option LoL

okay i just found out something, 29th-30th of august is also Retroest in Glasgow

this is going to mess up hotels in the city center and east side

the line up looks like t-in the park for housewives, Bay City Rollers, Shawaddywaddy, East 17, Rick Astly.....

if you want hotels i'ld search the west and south end of the city or the airport, and also check Paisley
