9.6/10 Exceptional! (931 reviews)
This was truly the best hotel that we stayed in while we were in Scotland! The only problem is that it is in Glasgow, and it is not even close to one of the prettiest places in the country. If you go to Scotland, you need to go to the Highlands or the Isle of Skye and not here. This hotel is awesome though!! The service was fantastic and the rooms and interior are beautiful. Be sure to take a few minutes to sit in the bar area and enjoy the quiet ambiance or sit the breakfast area and sip a coffee or tea.

8/10 Very Good! (1,010 reviews)
Hotel is undergoing some refurb, but Matthew on reception explained where I could find everything. The rooms are a bit dated, with limited sockets, but the bedroom was clean & comfortable. The lovely staff on the floor quickly brought me an iron. The bathroom shower rail was very rusty & this made the bathroom less appealing, but again, it was clean and the toiletries are lovely & the towels cozy. Matthew on reception was a godsend during my visit, quickly dealing with my early check in, luggage query and directing me to various areas. He greeted me each time with the professionalism I saw him use towards others, but also the friendliness I know & love about Glasgow. He’s an absolute asset. I was attending a conference and on both days, the lunches and breakfast were really good too. In short, slightly dated rooms, but outstanding staff.
