All of the staff were very friendly and helpful. The bar meal was delicious and a good portion. The breakfast was a tasty, huge buffet with something for all tastes. We stayed 2 nights in April and then again 1 night in May. Our room was warm, comfortable, and clean. We had rooms on both sides of the hotel with a wonderful view of the Erskine Bridge, and then of the Clyde looking towards Glasgow. The walking trails were wonderful, even saw a heron. I didn't get around to using the leisure facilities, pool etc., but they looked nice and well kept. And the price was affordable. I'll be back.

Arrived to find the key would not open the door. Maintenance came to the room to open it - the handle fell off!



Eventually got into the room to find it looking like it hadn't been decorated since the 70's (it really hadn't). The bathroom was horrendous. The room was really cold. There were draught excluders on the windows (crisp wrappers, cigarette packages and the like).



We were staying overnight for a wedding and the awful thing was we could see our house from the bedroom window.



The car park is also used as an overflow for Glasgow Airport so it's extremely difficult to park. The children used to be able to play on the grassed area but there are cars around now so it's too dangerous to let your children out to play.



There is a small climbing frame for the children but otherwise, this Hotel is not overly child friendly.



On a plus note, the staff were lovely especially the housekeeping, bar and reception girls.

Used this hotel as an overnight so that we could visit some of Glasgow’s tourist attractions.



The hotel looks very 60's /70's from the outside very unattractive on a rainy day!

However the reception, bar and restaurant were all of a more up to date decor.



The room was fine but it is clear to see that the corridors need an upgrade [worn carpets and decor].



Our room was actually quite cold, not usual in hotels. I think it may have something to do with the fact that the windows are not double glazed.



We did not have an evening meal in the restaurant but we did have a bar meal. There were no complaints with the food. It was hot, served promptly and priced in line with other bar meals.



The leisure facilities were good. I especially liked swimming with the views over the hills clearly visible from the large windows.



The breakfast was typical Scottish cooked. The service was good and there was plenty food available at the self service buffet.



The hotel itself is set in a grassy area with views over the Erskine Bridge and the river. I am sure it would be a pleasant walk in fine weather!



However there did not appear to be anywhere else within walking distance of the hotel.
