Reviews and Ratings
Wow, my stay at this hotel was a mixed bag of surprises! On the positive side, the rooms offered fantastic views of the Clyde, Science Centre, and BBC Scotland, along with lovely little chocolates on the bed. Access to the lounge was a real treat with complimentary snacks, canapés, and drinks. However, the downside was the absence of Sky TV and free slippers or robes. Some minor inconveniences, but overall a delightful experience.
The hotel provided a large bed that was very comfortable despite the cold temperatures outside. However, the room was only suitable for one person, making it a bit inconvenient. Overall, the room was clean, comfortable, and well-appointed.
The hotel needs a refurbishment and redecoration but offers friendly and helpful service. The location is good for concerts but has some noise from a toaster. The dining experience, while having some gluten-free options, needs improvement in temperature and service. The facilities are adequate but require some attention to detail.
I was thrilled with my stay at the hotel! The room was fantastic - very clean and comfortable. The room service was brilliant, and they were right on time as promised. However, the room showed some signs of wear and tear, like scuffs and tears, and needed a bit of repair work. Our wait time was longer than expected, over an hour and a half, and the 'River view' turned out to overlook a car park. Despite these minor flaws, we would definitely consider staying again!
Staying on the top floor with fantastic views of Glasgow was a delight, despite the stuffy atmosphere in the room. The rooms were spotless and well-equipped with tea and coffee making facilities, a decent bathroom, and a huge bed, although they could benefit from a modern upgrade. The hotel's services were mixed; while some staff were a bit off, others, like Jackie and her team, were incredibly welcoming and helpful. The location was excellent for our visit, especially for activities at the Hydro/SECC and exploring the West End. The dining experience offered decent quality food, although the black pudding wasn't up to par. Overall, a good value for money stay with a few areas for improvement.
The hotel is in a convenient location near SECC and Hydro with friendly staff and good dining choices. The rooms are spacious and well-equipped, though slightly dated. Despite minor drawbacks, it offers value for money.
The hotel offers stunning views over the city, but the room amenities fell short of expectations with dated decor and worn furniture. Nevertheless, the room size is generous compared to other European cities.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The location was really convenient, especially for attending concerts, but the rooms felt a bit tired and in need of some updating. The service was a bit hit-and-miss, with some staff members being extremely helpful while others were not as attentive. The dining experience was decent overall, with good food options but some drawbacks. The facilities provided were satisfactory, but there were areas that could use improvement.
The hotel offers a fantastic view from the 10th floor, and despite a stuffy room with air conditioning issues, it was clean and modern. The service was attentive and helpful, though marred by a rude customer at the bar. The location was spacious, comfortable, and attractive, especially for female guests, near entertainment venues. Dining had a great buffet selection but lacked drink options. Overall, a nice stay with minor room issues.
My stay at the hotel was a bit of a mixed bag. The staff were incredibly friendly and the hotel was very nice and clean. However, I was disappointed by the constant noise from construction work in the morning. The location was excellent for attending events at the SSE, but the hotel overall seemed in need of some renovations.
The hotel was fantastic overall, with spacious and comfortable rooms offering superb views of the river Clyde. The service was top-notch, and the location was perfect for our event at the SEC. The dining experience was enjoyable, and the facilities were well-maintained. However, there were price concerns that affected the overall value for money.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel, with clean and comfortable rooms, friendly and helpful staff, and a convenient location. However, the dining experience could use some improvement. The facilities were enjoyable, and the overall value for money was good.
My stay at the hotel was quite good overall. The rooms were decent, but I would not recommend this place for events due to noise early in the morning, despite the high price I paid. They could use some renovation. The service, however, was commendable with a very welcoming and helpful staff. The location was relaxing and convenient, close to the city center but needing a bit of cleaning. The dining experience was satisfying, although a bit disorganized at times. The facilities were adequate but nothing extraordinary.
I found the hotel to be a mixed experience. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, with some offering great views of the river and city, but they tended to get hot in the morning without any compensation in the form of cooling facilities. The cleanliness was satisfactory, although some areas could have been dusted better. The room came with a £149 price tag.
The hotel had a lovely room, but it was a bit pricey for the season. The service was friendly but seemed a bit inexperienced. The location was perfect for our needs, although it could use some tidying up. The dining experience was really enjoyable, and the facilities were great.
