Easy walk to restaurants on the West End, as well as the University of Glasgow and the Botanical Gardens. This is a boutique hotel, so please be prepared for smaller guest rooms, including small bathroom and limited closet space. Staff was very kind to us throughout our stay.

The guy on the desk when we arrived was fabulous! Super friendly and very accommodating. The night guy who made sure we had something to eat before our early departure was also great. Unfortunately the room was not so great. A view of garbage cans and the mattresses could definitely be thrown out.

Well located for the Kelvingrove Museum, Huntarian museums, botanic gardens and the University of Glasgow. It’s also about a five minute walk to the nearest subway station which will take you into the centre of Glasgow. The hotel was very clean and comfortable and all the staff were super-helpful and friendly. It was also well sound-proofed which I appreciated as I’m easily disturbed by traffic noise etc! The area is nice with lots of cafes, restaurants and bars, and some interesting shops.

A very nice hotel with all necessary amenities. Close to bus stops and the botanical garden. Loads of cafés, pub and restaurants in the neighbourhood. 10 mins from the subway. Moreover, the owner is a lovely person. Recommended !

Comfortable beds in a quaint hotel. Surprisingly quiet for a city location. Very friendly staff, great location to explore the West End, Ashton Lane, Univ of Glasgow, Botanical Gardens and they serve a hearty breakfast! Parking is not onsite but plenty of free parking just a 5 min walk away.

Overall this was a good hotel. Staff were lovely and accomodating. Lovely breakfast, best scrambled egg in a hotel i think I've ever had! Clean, only thing is a bit dated, maybe needs upgrading.

lovely easy check in. staff really helpful breakfast was lovely to. Only downside was that the remote did not work the t v. Not a massive problem - I found the buttons at the back of the T V, but it would be nice if it had worked.

The room was ok for what we paid but the parking was a nightmare ! We didn’t have coins for meter parking and wouldn’t take USA credit cards and nothing was close at all and we didn’t feel safe two older ladies walking 15minutes from possible free street parking down 5 blocks; it was close to the university , food choices & shopping areas ; the owner was nice to help us next day ; the rooms were just room with lumpy beds but clean .

It’s a good value for a nice lodging if you are planning to spend most of your time out and about. The interior is a bit dated and worn, but clean and tidy.
