A good basic hotel. Not very fancy or modern, but good value for your money.

Very friendly man helping us at reception. We did not have breakfast, but still offered us a coffee and croissant. Was lucky enough to get parking right in front of the hotel. Room was a bit small, but fine for one night.

Jacques

South Africa

The service and the rooms were royal. Our business stay in Glasgow was to a large extent great because of the guidance of the hotel staff, the good silent rest got during the night and the marvelous breakfast upon the wake-up. Will return also for private! It’s close to the park for morning runs and has a private garden across the street.

Excellent location within walking distance of all amenities. Breakfast was made to order and accommodated dietary needs.

Great location and fantastic value for a short stay. Concierge really helpful. Visitor parking a real bonus

Mike

Room was excellent, very clean and comfortably, towels changed every day and tea coffee was well stocked. Breakfast was made to order and the hot meal was grease free and a pleasure to eat, and set me up for the day.

David

United Kingdom

The two gentlemen who were at the desk were fantastic. They are a great asset to the hotel. The place is lovely and comfortable and very, very nicely located. We could walk to many things. There is a lovely breakfast place right next door if you don't choose breakfast at the hotel. There was tea and cookies in the room, the tv worked well, and the shower was hot and very nice. The people in Glasgow are very friendly.

The radiator didn’t work. It was very cold in my room. The reception was closed when I came back, so couldn’t ask help. Next morning, the receptionist brought a heater and the room got a bit warm.
It is located in an excellent location to city centre. The room is very clean.

There was nothing I didn't like really! The only thing that was a little annoying was the distance from the city centre (around a 25 minute walk, and only really annoying as it was raining but we are in Scotland so no shock there haha), but we knew when we booked that it wasn't very close. We were in Glasgow to see a showing of Still Game at the SSE Hydro, so we booked closer to there than the centre. All in all it was a lovely hotel and we were treated amazingly.
The staff at this hotel were amazing, so friendly and made us feel so comfortable! They were very helpful as we didn't really know where a lot of things were, so one of the staff (I can't remember his name I'm terrible with names but he was on the desk all day on the Sunday night 6/10/19) showed us maps and gave us a few leaflets etc so we knew where we were and where we were going. He is an asset to your business.

There wasn't anything I disliked actually. I accept and knew in advance that there was no free parking. The hotel did however sell all day or half day parking tokens priced at £4 or £2 respectively.
The staff were very helpful and attentive. Gary in particular was excellent and certainly his thoughtful assistance was appreciated. Very nice & clean hotel would definitely recommend. I didn't have chance to try the restaurant however but the menu looked very interesting. Nice and quiet at night I slept soundly even with the window open.

Staff are so nice and friendly. Generally clean room and smell nice. Nice location and view. I also liked breakfast and the vibes.
