"First time we have used this particular hotel in Glasgow but certainly will not be the last. From our first contact with staff at reception to the checkout everyone was so friendly and genuinely wanted us to have a nice stay there. The room was lovely with a super king and the decor,both in the bedroom and the bathroom, was modern and bright. Our room had a side view of the Clyde which was great, as it was a bright sunny day. Great central location and nearby discounted parking was easy to access. Thank you Leonardo !"
