What a fantastic find!! Immaculately clean and had a great location. Comfy beds, pillows and quilts, ample room to manoeuvre about the bedroom. Bathroom had a large shower, towels but no toiletries. House keeping popped in everyday, lovely surprise. Breakfast fantastic value for money. Huge choice of items on the menu. Staff were all polite attentive and helped out in anyway including ordering taxis, directions and fun facts in the area. Well done! Very reasonably priced will be back....

Great staff, rooms clean, great location for Glasgow's West End. I didn't have the breakfast but the breakfast room seemed pleasantly busy. Free parking at rear and also only £6.00 a day in-front of hotel, on street. I'd certainly book again, so much better than the last West End Hotel I stayed in.

Super location next to the Botanic Garden, only a few minutes walk from public transport, Byres Rd, cafes, shops, and the University of Glasgow is within walking distance. Nice single room (no. 6), quiet & clean place, friendly staff, good breakfast. Next time I go to Glasgow, I hope to stay here again, which says a great deal.

We stayed in an apartment which is a big room with comfy beds, amazing pillows, a sofa , table and chairs and little kitchen. All clean and no issues at all. Lovely position by the river and botanic gardens. We tried to book breakfast the afternoon before but they were full so make sure you book well in advance if you want it.

I booked for a single room and was given an apartment with king size bed, wee seating area and large shower room en suite. Excellent value for price I paid. More than I expected. The room was very clean and quiet. I had a super night's sleep. Hotel on the doorstep of the quiet botanical gardens and near the west end shops.

David was great, he sorted the remote (that was missing) out. He also brought me more milk one morning. He was very friendly, kind and professional. The room was wonderful and clean, very spacious and the bed was nice a firm. I am looking forward to my next visit and hopefully bringing the family.
