Pub is in a great area of Glasgow down a quiet side street. Staff was very welcoming despite us being extremely jet lagged. Lovely clean rooms. Excellent pub food and breakfast.

Wonderful people run and staff this old, traditional pub/hotel. The room was nice Modern bathroom. Nice showers. Slept well. Bed was USA queen size. Firm. Nice Duvets. Warm enough. Breakfast was fun. Bobsy (the owner) is a hoot. Think a straight Eddie Izzard. Funny, irreverent, passionate. Makes all coffees by espresso machine...so Delicious! Great host! Fresh, delicious Danish. Yogurt and fresh, perfect berries.

Perhaps the finest hotel stay in the last ten years. Great clean facilities, excellent food and drink available onsite. Staff is outstanding. Rob who I think is the manager, went above and beyond to suggest what to visit and served us breakfast.

Great tucked away location but still in the heart of things! Lovely staff and fun place. This place is a gem. So glad I found it.

The staff was more than charming and extremely welcoming. Breakfast was a treat, and the pub’s menu was not only very good but included a number of vegan options as well, which was perfect for us. As a bonus the pub regulars were all friendly as well.

I choose this accomodation as it's an easy 10 minute walk from Barrowland. Very convenient. The room was exceptionally comfortable. The breakfast with fresh fruit salad, toast and croissants, etc was wonderful and beautifully presented. Very friendly staff.

Lovely clean room and shower staff were the best so welcoming and friendly cannot recommend this highly enough

It was a Continental Breakfast but was very good. Location is perfect for walking to city centre.

Warm welcome great location great atmosphere and food.

Great staff, really friendly, couldn't do enough for you 👍🏻
