Embassy Apartments

Glasgow


This elegant self-catering place offers both facilities and location. Situated on a quiet, exclusive street on the edge of the Botanical Gardens, the studio-style apartments sleep one to six, have fully equipped kitchens and are sparklingly clean. A particularly good option for couples and families with older kids. Available by the day, but prices drop for longer rentals and vary by demand.
