Attended for friends wedding, stayed 4 nights. Customer service from all employees was first class with the exception of one lady on the 3rd days breakfast. As there were many people in the wedding party, we were able to have a sneaky look at most of the rooms. The attic rooms we were provided were of a lower standard, and were newer so were less traditional. The bathrooms were great though (heated floors, nice shower, big bath - though I didnt have time to try it out), even if more modern than the other rooms. The back attic room I was in was big enough for the purpose and was cleaned well. There is no turn down service, but I dont usually like this service, so made a nice change. The coffee machines were easy to use and the coffee was excellent. My main issues were that there were not enough well positioned sockets near the mirror, and despite a number of light options, the room was a little on the dark side. Comfy beds, warm rooms. Concern was that we locked the windows but housekeeping had left them unlocked after cleaning the room, and this was an issue as there was easy access with the scaffolding at the back to repair the damaged roof after previous storms. Be wary on arrival, if offered tea and coffee, this is not complimentary and will be charged to your room - a small niggle that annoyed me on check out, since we were offered a drink on arrival a checkin and these are usually complimentary. Bar staff were excellent and more than willing to assist.

old building done up to modern standard but retaining it's authenticity

I used to be a medical student in Glasgow more than 25 years ago. Like many students,I did not have much money. I used to take a bus from the Hyndland bus stop to my Hospital a distance away . ThE bus stop overlooked a dinning room and kitchen in which the most sumptuous meals seemed to be created. Standing outside in the wind and often driving snow, watching the fortunate folk supping ,I promised myself that I would one day eat in the same dining room and live in this lovely hotel. For one eason or the other I did not visit Glasgow for 25 years. When I did, I stayed at Devonshire Gardens. It was all I imagined it to be. Warm, cozy,very hospitable staff. The rooms were huge. Very well appointed, great toiletries....and yes, I did eat in the very same dining room overlooking the same bus stop that I stood at so many years ago. When I visit again - I would not dream of living elsewhere!!

Stayed here for 2 nights at the beginning of December - fabulous from start to finish. Decadent rooms, whole place very tasteful - not stuffy at all and the staff were just amazing - helpful and so friendly. Did not want to leave and hope to return sometime.
