Stayed there twice in two weeks for the location. Both times we did not receive the room we paid for. The full size mattress was extremely thin and old and we could feel the metal strips. Our room was apparently next to the bar and very loud one night. The showers in both rooms, though seemingly renovated already had black mold growing on them.

Asked the hotel a few questions by email but they were not answered, requested room with a bath but got a shower. The room was comfortable, clean, had lots of tea and coffee, nowhere to hang the towels. Breakfast has a good selection, staff friendly.

We stayed in the Guest House opposite the Hotel. Check in was a breeze and room was really easy to find, clean and welcoming with a big bathroom. Breakfast was served in the hotel and was probably one of the best breakfasts I’ve had in a hotel in Scotland. Overall a great stay, will go back again and have already recommend to others

Pleasant stay - nice location
An older style guest house, opposite the affiliated Argyll Hotel (where you have to go to check in). Our room was quite a reasonable size and comfortable, although we had to go downstairs one level and then back upstairs again, so for people with limited mobility our room would not be a good choice. The check in was friendly and quick, the room was quite clean and the location is good, close to Kelvingrove Museum and Park, and with plenty of pubs and restaurants around. If coming by train it is a bit of a walk from Glasgow Central, otherwise about 20 minutes from Kelvinbridge Subway station.

Lovely over night stay.
Very friendly and helpful staff. Extremely comfy bed, and very clean. Was concerned it would be noisy with the hotel right on Sauchiehall Street but it wasn't. We had the perfect peaceful sleep. Meal in the hotel was vegan, something we hadn't experienced before but was delicious, highly recommend. The full scottish buffet breakfast was very tasty too. We were attending a concert at the bandstand, the hotel was just a few minutes walk away, perfect location. We will be back.

Good place to stay, but not if you need to park
The Hotel was decent enough but lists as parking available nearby for £4 a day. This is misleading as I enquired when I arrived. I was told to use on-street parking. The hotel is located in a restricted parking zone, pay and display parking is available on street but costs 80p for every 15 minutes with a 3 hour max stay. So that’s £9.60 for the 3 hours. Pay and display is in force from 8am to 6pm so if you’re arriving late and leaving early it’s fine. I was only there for one night so it wasn’t too bad but if you’re staying longer and need to park then you’re probably better off finding somewhere else. The place itself was very nice, clean, the staff were great and the breakfast was pretty good although the bed was a little hard for my liking. I would definitely stay here again, but only if I didn’t need to park.

Hi DanielThank you for your review.We are happy to see that you had enjoyed your stay in our guest house. In regards to parking, since February 2023 Glasgow City Council have removed parking vouchers which were 4 per day. Unfortunately, now there is only street parking which is paid at parking meters or nearby car parks. We have since updated our messages to automatically send a message 2 days prior to arrival with parking information. On weekends Saturday and Sunday street parking is completely free.We hope this does not stop you from visiting our guest house again in the future and we look forward to welcoming you again.Kind RegardsReception

Pleasant stay
My son and I stayed over for the night whilst attending a concert at the Hydro. The guest house was clean, tidy and comfortable. The location is about 10 to 15 minute walk to The Hydro and is very close to lots of great bars and restaurants. Breakfast was included and was a well stocked buffet (hot and cold options) and some of the best coffee I have tasted in a hotel. Overall a very pleasant stay and great value for money. My one gripe is that the person on reception told us there is no option of discounted parking despite the listing claiming there were discounts available (£4 per day).

HiThank you so much for your kind review. We are really glad you enjoyed your stay in our Guest House and our breakfast options. In regards to the parking situation from February the Glasgow City Council have discontinued discounted parking permits which were available to hotels. Unfortunately, we had no say in this and we are just as disappointed as our guests are. We are trying our best to have the information in regards to 4 parking removed from all websites. We really hope to welcome you into our Guest House again in the future.Kindest RegardsReception

The room and bathroom were clean, the location of the room was not great, we were on the ground floor of the property accross the road, we could hear the creaking of the floor above, late into the night and early in the morning, which kept me awake. I had my daughter with me and the noise of the pub accross the road in the evening was distracting. The bed was ok but not the comfiest. The location was excellent. The ladies at breakfast were lovely and friendly, and the food OK. In all honesty not the best place ive been but also not the worst, may stay again if the room were cheaper.

Triple Room Stay
Stayed in the triple bed room. Room was clean. Shower was good and even though it faced the main road it was fairly quiet during the night. Kettle was nice and clean. Wifi was good. Car parking is a bit of challenge. There's no parking provided by the hotel so all parking is on the road so just had to drive round till I found a spot. Parking is free from 6pm - 8am but hotel provided discount tickets which was useful during the day. Breakfast was just ok. Would have preferred more options in for the hot breakfast. Staff was courteous.

Water supply in bathroom was dangerously hot. Check in was at the Argyll Hotel on the other side of busy Sauchiehall Street and was very slow with only one person on duty. Otherwise, it was a comfortable stay, with a good breakfast.

It would be wonderful value for money if you invested in some decent mattresses. Mine had the support of a nan bread. A real shame because it was warm and clean.

From our late arrival, welcome excellent, smiling member of staff made us feel special. The room was absolutely spotless (which given my nervousness since this was my first proper outing due to Covid restrictions over the last couple of years). The ambience of the fittings did not disappoint from those seen on the website. The dining room is across the road from the Guest House but this did not detract from our experience. Again very clean, once again very friendly staff and food satisfactory. Thank you everyone at Argyll you are all very special (commendation to the room cleaning team who are a credit to your profession). Parking is the only challenge however when I checked with the team prior to arrival I understood how to manage parking if a space was available. I am intending to use the guest house again soon for a family wedding. Keep up the good work. God bless
