“The location, tucked into Glasgow's West End, certainly appeals, as do the tartan-themed rooms aiming for a distinctive Scottish touch. I appreciate its historic building; there's something to be said for a family-run spot near the university. A full Scottish breakfast each morning is the kind of detail that makes a difference.”

Excellent stay at a well-located hotel

friendly welcome short walk good breakfast
The staff provided a friendly welcome. My room overlooked the back of the building so it was peaceful. It was a short walk to Byres Road. I was also only 15 minutes from the subway. I enjoyed a good breakfast. This was good value, especially if you have a good appetite.
I booked street parking. There were limited spaces, and I had to pay every two hours.

Fantastic Stay Near Everything!

great location clean room friendly staff
The location was amazing. I enjoyed being so close to the Botanic Gardens and Byres Road! The hotel and my room were very clean. Everything felt fresh. The staff members were so friendly and approachable. I especially want to commend Ollie for being so hardworking and helpful in all areas of the hotel!
The lack of variety on the TV channels was a bit disappointing. I wished there were more options available other than just a few kids' channels. This limited my entertainment choices after a long day.
