Holiday Inn Express Strathclyde Park M74 JCT 5

On the edge of Strathclyde Country Park, just off the M74 (Jct. 5) in the Bothwell/Glasgow area. Steps from Strathclyde Loch and a short walk to M&D's theme park, with Bothwell Castle, David Livingstone Centre and Bellshill Golf Club close by. Quick drives to Glasgow (and its airport ~25 min) or Edinburgh (~45 min); pet-friendly, family-friendly and with free on-site parking.

Recently refurbished rooms with a clean, contemporary vibe — air conditioning, flat-screen TVs, tea/coffee facilities, pillow menu and blackout curtains. Family rooms offer sofa beds; bathrooms include showers, complimentary toiletries and hair dryers. Rooms overlook garden and park settings for a loch-side feel.

Complimentary Wi‑Fi, ample free self-parking and breakfast included with your stay. Evening drinks and snacks at an on-site Express bar. Steps from walking and cycling trails, water-sport activity at Strathclyde Loch and nearby sports facilities — all in a dog-friendly, family-friendly setting.

Two meeting rooms and a business center serve events and work trips. High-speed (wired) internet is available (surcharge) and express check-in keeps things efficient.

Daily buffet breakfast is included — think scrambled eggs, bacon, sausages, baked beans, hash browns and continental items. An on-site restaurant serves guests and the Express bar pours drinks and light bites in the evening.
