We spent 2 nights (booked in 10/02/2012 and left 12/02/2012). Greeted by an efficient and pleasant Gentleman at reception. The room, no 24, was small (we had booked late on the 8th so got the last available room) and clean but requires a bit of TLC. Shower and toilet was clean. The shower cubicle was a bit small but I...

My girlfriend booked this hotel for one night as we were spending the day in Glasgow visiting the kelvingrove museum to see Salvador dalis Christ of saint John on the cross, and seeing snow patrol at the secc in the evening. The room we were given was next to the kitchen and there was a fair bit noise from this.... More

Bad points: Room requiring some TLC, mould in the shower,dirty carpet,freezing and paying prior to seeing the room. Would have also liked to be asked as we left our thoughts but they couldnt even...

I'm writing this before checking out ...just so i don't forget to write about this excellent hotel. I stayed for one night in this hotel to watch the magnificent Coldplay at the SECC. This hotel is clean, efficient, close to takeaways and restaurants. It's a great place to stay if you are going for a concert at the SECC as... More

When we arrived at The Kelvingrove, the receptionist had our reservation sitting in front of her. She was extraordinarily efficient in checking us in, then she came out from behind her counter and showed us to our room. She pointed out the hotel's amenities and advised us as to when breakfast would be served. Our room was tidy, the bathroom... More

Over the past few years I've stayed in almost every hotel in this section of Sauchiehall Street but never in the Kelvingrove. Had to book last minute and as everywhere else was full we ended up here. Check in was friendly and efficient, the receptionist even wanted to show us to the room - we politely declined - and we... More

Initial impressions were good but on closer inspection the hotel failed to make the grade. As in the last review the sheets did not cover the mattress and there was no mattress cover - yuck! The shower cubicle was black with mould - nothing some bleach and elbow grease wouldn't sort out. The en-suite was tight for space although our... More

We stayed here when dropping off my son at Uni Halls which were close by. The bed sheet didn't cover the mattress, there was black mould in the shower and grouting and the bathroom door stuck and was stubborn to open and close. The redeeming feature was the breakfast as it was very good. More

We have stayed here a number of times on visits to Glasgow. Good location for the West End. Can be fairly noisy within the hotel. Not particularly great value, but reasonable accommodation. However, the hotel does employ a ruthless cancellation policy, which most recently charged us our full stay irrespective of circumstances, and ensures we won't be coming back again. More
