We stayed as a family and found that there was plenty of room even with an extra fold down bed. The room and the bathroom were clean and in good condition. I enjoyed using the pool in the morning. Breakfast was good and all staff were super friendly and helpful.

Okay, room a little tired
We had a room on tenth floor, nice enough. Bathroom was bit tired. Windows weren’t great as you couldn’t really see through them. Like they were really old and weathered. Hairdryer didn’t work properly. Bed wasn’t terribly comfortable so I didn’t get a good sleep. The proximity to the Ovo is perfect so I’ll definitely come back. Breakfast was okay…black pudding had no taste. Lifts weren’t great, think 1 was broken as never ever came.

Ok
Ok experience. Booked upgrade but Club Lounge oversold. Not enough space to sit, only beer and (basic) wine. No spirits, no Prosecco. Not enough food to go around. Lifts sporadically working had to use service lifts. Leisure club was ok. Jacuzzi amazing really warm and worked well.

Good location with lovely views over the Clyde. Friendly staff great to have a swim sauna and steam prior to dinner. I found breakfast food a little overcooked it would have been preferable to order fresh from the menu. Overall a good hotel
