    Only one of the elevators was working. But the one that did work was quick enough.

    Absolutely perfect location, very pleasant and helpful staff, comfortable room with very nice decor. A classy hotel overall. The rooftop restaurant has a great view and good breakfast buffet. The afternoon tea there is lovely. I very much enjoyed my stay here and would gladly stay here again!!

    Rooms are very outdated and in need of a revamp. For example wardrobe out of line and needing replaced. Damage to walls making it look tatty

    Closeness to the rail station and the free minibar . Very comfortable bed

    The executive lounge wasn't manned until the final part of the evening.

    The staff were amazing when we checked in early, the room was spotless, the facilities were on point and the location was perfect in the city centre.

    Noisy this trip with ongoing restorative work. AC didn’t appear to work in room. Snacks provided in room were notably reduced. Lounge relocated first evening to restaurant, due to building restoration work.

    Location of hotel is fantastic. Room had been recently refurbished and modernised. Nice to see. Club lounge access is always enjoyed in our bookings here. Recommended.

    Although I liked the sliding glass door for bathroom it was a bit too see through. I think the glass should be completely smoked out if using this sort of style.

    Enjoyed our stay at the hotel. Location was so central it was great! We stayed in one of the newly refurbed rooms which was lovely done. The added mini bar and nips was a great touch. Room was pretty modern stylish and very clean.

    Some of the finishes particularly in the Lounge area need some refurbishment. The bathrooms on our three stays there in six weeks all had issues with water draining slowly.

    The location was excellent. Many places were walking distance including a very good Thai restaurant. The staff were particularly friendly and knowledgeable and gave us excellent directions and information. The Airport Link bus stop was just around the corner on the parallel road which was very convenient. It is also right next to the train station.

    Lovely overnight break.

    • Stayed 1 night

    The bed was a little firm for my liking and the duvet was very heavy, making for a hot nights sleep. The furniture was a quite old fashioned and in need of a bit of TLC (there was a standard lamp that fell over of its own accord) although this was a minor consideration. The shower, although powerful, could have been done with an updated shower head.

    It was in a fabulous location. Very central. Our room was a good size. Well appointed. There was a fan in the room which was useful. There was also a very good hairdryer and a pair of straighteners. Club room so free mini bar. This wasn't fully stocked when we first arrived (first impression was that it was poor) but had been stocked when we came back a little later. Huge bed. The club lounge was a nice touch and the drinks / snacks were good. Attached to a good pub. The restaurant on floor 7 was bright and airy for breakfast and the buffet was superb.

    Not a thing

    Being my wife’s80 th. Birthday celebration, the hotel went out of their way to make our stay wonderful. Born in Glasgow, we decided to travel from Canada to celebrate and she wasn’t disappointed. The staff upgraded our room which was lovely and upon arrival found a lovely box of chocolates for her with a birthday card. So appreciated. The staff gave us excellent advice and the complimentary bar in our room was fabulous. Thank you so much for making this special occasion so excellent. Jack and Chris Packer

    Unfortunately the air conditioning wasn’t working. The front desk didn’t tell us when we checked in. When we told them our room was 25.5 C then they told us that the a/c was broken. We had a fan though. We were moved to a room with a window that opened slightly. It was a one night stay. We wouldn’t have stayed another night. Location is perfect. Staff are for the most part helpful. I’d stay again but ask for a room with a window and fan when the weather outside is above 20C

    Room location, only one lift working

    Hotel was in a great location and staff were excellent, we had a double comfort room, the bed was comfy and the shower good, there was also a free minibar which was a nice touch. The room faced inwards this meant the room was always very dark despite several lamps we also felt we had to keep the curtain closed as there were rooms directly opposite that could look in (we were on floor 1) there was only one lift working which was an issue in such a large hotel and there was always a wait for the lift. The restaurant on 7th floor was nice but the outside area for drinks was extremely small and there was no bar to sit at. We had a great stay in Glasgow not sure I would stay here again as the price we paid did not reflect the room we stayed in
