Stayed here recently for a wedding. It’s a decent value hotel. The rooms are a little tired and worn in places. That said, the bed was excellent. Very big and very comfortable. It was also nice and quiet.Check in process was fast and straight forward.Bar was alright but limited selection in beer, typical hotel prices and sometimes you’d have to wait around for someone to appear.All in all, happy with it for what I paid. Good for a night away but would probably pick somewhere nicer for an extended trip.

Had a great stay here. All staff were super friendly, helpful and chatty. The bar staff struck up a conversation with everyone they served, and receptionists were great too. The housekeeping staff we met were also really helpful and friendly.Didn't have breakfast but we did eat in the restaurant a couple of times and the food was brilliant.The bed was really comfortable. Room was good but could do with a bit of an update.My only negative is that you have to request a visit from housekeeping the night before - which is easy to forget. Fine if you're only staying a couple of nights, but if you're there for a week it can mean things get a bit messy!

The staff were friendly but the hotel was Disgusting. I'm not a fussy man by any stretch of the imagination, but this Hotel was repugnant! The elevators were barely capable of carrying people and their luggage, often forcing people to take the stairs. The ventilation in the rooms was almost nonexistent, with the meagre fan provided being no more effective a reprieve from the swampy heat of the hotel than an asthmatic mouse having a coughing fit in the corner of the room would have been! The carpets were heavily stained and made it hard to tell when/if they had been cleaned. The bare basics such as having carpets to fit the rooms or curtains hung correctly were completely absent. The electrical fittings were lose and not screwed in. The bathrooms stank and had no functional ventilation or fans, primarily because they were clogged with disgusting amounts of what looked to be moldy lint. The idiotic shower had only a single valve that forced it's victim to enduring cycling through the full spectrum of temperature to utilize it (Including freezing cold before you could turn it off). The fittings were ancient and often didn't work. The bathroom curtain smelled and was so close to the shower that it was almost impossible to avoid it clinging to you while you're trying to clean yourself......Great staff, but the Hotel owners need to hang their heads in shame at the disgrace their hotel has become.Would not recommend!

I recently stayed here, it was everything I expected and more. The rooms were clean, staff were very friendly and helpful, and the food was good too.There's a train station no more than 5 minutes away, and the walk to shops isn't far either.I'll definitely be staying there again.

Great location for West end and easy to get to if you don’t drive as Hyndland station just a few minutes walk away. Staff were lovely and extremely pleasant and friendly. Rooms were clean but dated, could do with a little refresh. Really enjoyed our stay and will definitely book again.

We've been staying at this hotel for over 20 years, sadly unless it's refurbished this will have been our last stay. The staff have always been lovely and we've no complaints about them. However the building and rooms desperately need improving. I didn't sleep properly, noise from outside and the room next door. (Normal volume chatter). The mattress was comfy and bedlinen clean but that is the only positive. Bathroom lights not working, water pressure and temperature were irractic. Scalded myself after water stopped and started several times in the shower. The carpets in the rooms stained and worn. Curtains not fixed properly. One tiny lift working the other permanently out of order.It's sad to witness this hotels decline.

I'll be honest that this wasn't my first choice - stayed here for one Saturday night as there were no vacancies at Premier Inn. I wasn't expecting Leonardo to be stellar, but it was way below my expectations. …
