The family room was very spacious my daughter and partner and their grandson were very comfortable. I had a single room with a comfy bed, perfect for my needs. A special thank you to Marlene who checked us in and made sure we were looked after. She went the extra mile. The hotel is perfectly located right next to the botanic gardens which we were visiting.
There was nothing to dislike.

Manager was a gem! Super lady that took great care of us and explained everything to us, including the parking. Parking was awesome too! Private. The hotel is very quaint, and I loved the style. And when the manager told us everything downtown for food or drinks is great, she was right! We had the best meal in all of our trip to Scotland, right there 1/4 mile from our little hotel. Fantastic atmosphere and vibe in that area. Super safe. Young and old out to all hours in the district!
Shower situation was interesting but worked well. The rooms could be refreshed in a more modern style and this hotel would be 10/10!

Great location in the beautiful West End of Glasgow just on the Kelvin walkway. The hotel is very cozy and clean, it's centrally located yet very quiet. The beds are confortable, and you have all the essentials in your room. The staff is super friendly and welcoming.
My room was tiny but I knew it when I booked.

The location was great (although if you have a car and aren’t successful at grabbing one of the 8-10 “reserved” private spaces, public parking was VERY expensive). The triple room we had was spacious but for the very tiny bathroom (room 21). The water was nice and hot and the water pressure was fantastic. The breakfast was very good. The staff were great, especially Neil and Diana.
Our bathroom was a broom closet. It barely fit the toilet, sink and shower. There was no window and consequently, the room stayed damp which meant the towels stayed damp

Well located, close to Murano student dorms and Univ of Glasgow without having to be in downtown. Friendly and helpful staff make the visit feel more homey than a large hotel.
Expect a basic, clean, and functioning room with all of the necessities.
