Best Western Motherwell Centre Moorings Hotel

I recently visited this quaint little Scottish Town expecting to find grim grime covered streets covered with ash from the steelworks. They shut in 1992 under the Thatcher (spit) government. The streets were bright and cheerful with friendly people everywhere. The shops were filled with affordable goods, well most charity shops are. Queues outside all the chemists with friendly locals greeting you with requests for a pound for a cup of tea. Absolute bargain at that price. Quaint working (except no one is) class pubs full of beautiful young women looking to show the unsuspecting tourist a good time around town. Clubs abound around town. There's the miners, no really, a coal miners club, just no coal miners in it. Then there's the ex Service Men's club, no ex service men in it. Both hives of hilarity and fun and again no shortage of helpful women. What a friendly place. I lost my wallet in one such club but as I knew would happen, a friendly local returned it to me. Minus my money, driving licence and credit cards. I was so grateful getting my wallet back that I didn't mind the fact my cards had been used to buy "Custom kitchens, colour TV's". I will always treasure my visit to Motherwell, well after the broken bones have healed and the bruises faded. That happened when I tripped and fell onto several young chaps boots a few times. I hope you will enjoy your trip to Motherwell as much as I have. 😊 less

We have stayed here for a local Annual event for the last 15 or so years apart from 2020 and 21 due to covid. As always a very enjoyable stay in a reasonably priced hotel close to the town centre and all local amenities. Looking forward to returning next year. less

Stayed here for one night with my sister as we were here visiting family. Rooms are lovely, nicely decorated, clean and the one we were in was very quiet. Everyone in the hotel, staff wise is very polite and the hotel itself is a gorgeous building. Breakfast this morning was pre ordered the night before which we totally didn't mind and it was great to be waited on. The lady in the restaurant (sorry didn't get her name) was extremely attentive and all the food was served hot and was fresh. Will certainly be returning next time we come up to visit. Thank you for a lovely stay! less

Beautiful hotel, easy to find, good parking and facilities and very good staff/service. Sleep was impacted by the heat in the rooms and is the reason for lower scores in these areas. Restaurant was lovely and both breakfast and evening meals were very good. Great hotel for a very reasonable price. less

On this flying visit I stayed for only one night. I had stayed here before on two occasions end enjoyed my the experience. The location is excellent, only a five minute walk from the station. The Receptionists are very welcoming and helpful and the general ambience is delightful. The public areas are are tastefully furnished and comfortable. My bedroom, with super-king-bed, was luxurious, clean and well-appointed, with a splendid walk-in shower room. Above all, the staff members were excellent! less
