it was an overall disappointing experience. I had booked two rooms, and both had issues. One room had heating problems, making the room uncomfortable, and the other had a broken toilet flush, which made it difficult to use. The rooms were old, with outdated furniture and fixtures, which certainly didn’t justify the high price they charge. What made matters worse was the lack of friendly service. When I called reception to address the issues, no one picked up the phone, which only added to the frustration. To top it all off, all the hotel staff were unfriendly to us. The hotel felt overly hyped and simply didn’t live up to expectations. Overall, it was a regrettable stay,

Callum at the desk was fantastic. Breakfast was very good. The road leading to the hotel was full of forest trees, too scary for me but idle for people that love to he around forest.

Nice hotel grounds, however hotel needs updating.

Should have done my research before booking and read the google reviews. The hotel grounds are stunning, however the overall decor of the hotel and room i stayed in needed a serious overhaul. Bed was comfy but room was just so dated. Staff service was friendly enough.

Great hotel but comes with strict rules

To new comers visiting Glasgow, should you wish to stay here take into account how are you getting into the city centre to visit all spots. By bus this hotel is 1hour and half away and by car about 30 minutes. My stay was okay. It was great the initial night and I was honestly not going to bring up any issues however, here’s a quick overview of what happened. Firstly, there was either a malfunction with the fire alarm or someone was an idiot in the rooms and set off the whole system. On our last night our windows were left open therefore a bird entered our room and basically shat everywhere. The hotel staff were kind to offer us a second room however, this room was much smaller and the quality was completely downgraded. No hot shower and when went downstairs to complain. We were offered 50% refund. Come next morning(today) we were given less than 50% of our refund as we were 7 minutes late. Nothing communicated just told the amount. The amount of inconvenience caused surely they would let us go for being 7 minutes late? Anyway, the place is great and the restaurant has a really good selection of food. We did like the wings and sweet potatoe fried so give that a go.

I stayed at the Macdonald Crutherland twice over two weeks and i was not impressed. The WiFi in the room was terrible and prevented me from being able to do some work in the room. The food at the bar was a disgrace!! I got a pizza for £14 which was possibly a £1 Iceland pizza!! Surely any chef worth their salt would refuse to put that out, they must be bought in and out in a freezer and served at a ridiculous price for what they are. The staff are all very nice and hardworking, but the hotel itself is very tired and I would imagine being run down and eventually sold for development. It’s certainly not a 4* hotel and I wouldn’t stay here again!
