ABode, Glasgow

The location and an impressive building with a great lift inside

The room was shabby, the toilet could hardly flush, the smell . I read the reviews from other people saying the same but I thought they were just being dramatic .

The staff were so so so lovely, made me feel welcome. Comfy room that was excellent value for money especially in a prime location

Bathroom was a bit grubby (hairs in bath) with some wear and tear

Great location, lovely space, gorgeous building and wonderful staff

Nothing

Really nice comfortable hotel in a lovely old building. Staff were really friendly and helpful. Bathroom could do with a bit of modernisation but other than that was perfect

Very close to where we wanted to be. Comfortable room.

The bathroom products were hard to lather.

Nice old building, staff very friendly. Breakfast was excellent.

TV in the room didn't work. Staff were informed on checkout. I'm sure it will be fixed.

Beautiful architecture, nice room, friendly service, ideal central location

The style of the building is very nice, the cage lift is a fun feature, and the skylight on the top floor makes the place feel very open.

The room smelt a bit old and musty could of done with an air freshener, shower head was a bit rubbish and bathroom needs modernised as was a bit sad

Lovely central hotel. Friendly helpful staff . Poor internet connection. Great, freshly cooked breakfasts but veggie sausages would have been appreciated as would an email or text to inform the restaurant was closed the night we arrived ( we had booked a table)

Location was good, comfortable bed, clean bathroom.

Some plaster was cracked and having from the wall. A second roll of toilet paper is sometimes needed. Tv remote and lights didn’t work.

Great location.

Room & bathroom very small & slightly shabby. Mattress was too soft. Otherwise all great. Good central location & hotel interior had character.

Great location, friendly staff, lovely big room

The amazing lift!

The bed was small, the room needs upgrading The breakfast was excellent

A little dated but comfy and clean .. has character

Location was easy access into Town lovely walk , Breakfast very nice & plenty of it ,lovely helpful staff

Room was at front of hotel very noises at night

Good location. Some great features.

We loved the quirkyness of the hotel ....its a lovely old building with high ceilings and huge windows. Loved the decor in our room ...the bed was so comfy .was good to have a window we could open fir fresh air overnight Breakfast was lovely and tasty ....plenty choice

There was a piece of plaster hanging off the wall up high that spoiled the look of the room....... Waited a while before being acknowledged a breakfast.but that was because waitress was on her own that morning .

The staff were very friendly and helpful. It was in a good location. Easy walk into the city . Quite a few small cafes and restaurants very close by. Bathroom needs work. Shower over bath. Need handles on wall as tiles slippery & could easily slip. Such a lovely big bedroom warrants a lovely big bathroom. But the bed was big & soft. Plenty of comfy seating. We did get a very good room. Lift is fantastic - 1900s . Only had 1 breakfast - ok.

Staff were very welcoming and friendly Building unique Great location for theatre,shops,restaurants

One room had issue with bath taps and other room safe did not work

Hotel is lovely. Great location. Staff was very helpful but weren't aware of attractions. No cabs in Glasgow can be guaranteed to come to take you to Milngavie? Hard to believe!

See above

Comfortable bed and good breakfast

Windows don't open and air conditioner noisy all night. Small bath. Room just seemed dated.

room, the bed is what i want for my own home, breakfast sets you up for the entire day, so close to city centre, surrounded by great restaurants, pubs and music venue. Staff as always are saintly in their attentiveness.

The staff were brilliant. The bar and bistro area was modern and stylish. The original features of the building were lovely.

Room was a bit tired. Sealant round windows needs to be replaced. Bathroom very small and so hot. Part of ceiling needs repainted.

Nice old building rooms small but comfortable. Great breakfast

Small rooms

The hotel was perfectly situated for night entertainment. The staff at the hotel was exceptionally helpful. Our room was comfortable and had everything we needed.

Fabulous location, breakfast and of course the hotel and it's impressive decor and caged lift!

Noisy ventilation!

Staff was very friendly, price was cheap, and location was amazing to walk around the city center.

The hotel is located beside a busy road and could hear buses, cleaning trucks and noisy young people after-hours.

The old-fashioned decor was wonderful. I loved the main atrium and stairway. The room was comfortable with a view. The staff who checked me in were helpful and polite.

The room had a smell of stale smoke,a nd the bed itself was not very comfortable to sleep on. Not a bad bed per see, but certainly not a great one. When trying to check out it was a while until reception could see me.

Great location. We asked for a high floor room and we got it. Room ready when we arrived. Nice clean room, comfy bed and pillows. Staff very helpful and cheery. Had a small bathroom but clean and well laid out. Lots of towels if needed. Tea and coffee maikng facilities in room. Good temperature, not too hot. Quirky lift we enjoyed using !

Wardrobe was quite dated and windows didn't really close properly so we had a noisy nite from the street outside!

Comfortable room with friendly staff.

Great location in centre of Glasgow right opposite a q-park. Friendly welcome from reception and breakfast staff.Breakfast is excellent - cooked to order rather than buffet style.

Room a bit cool when we arrived in the afternoon (as radiators were turned off). Then too warm overnight with heating on. Nightporter was very grumpy when we said good evening and asked if the bar was still open. His response was a terse ‘bar’s shut’ and response to is there a resident’s lounge was a very terse ‘bar’s shut’ - oh well.

The room had a lovely welcoming feel to it. Stunning to the eye

Great staff, excellent room, comfortable bed

Strong light immediately above the window (room 120) which made the room quite light

Gorgeous hotel with great history. Room was spacious and slept so bloody well! Staff were very nice and helpful and great location

Couldn’t open windows and room got very hot, air con was loud and not the best but they did provide a fan and option to change rooms.

This is a property steeped in history. The building was the childhood home of Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman (Prime Minister of UK 1905) and an office for the education board until the 1990’s… the education board put in the lift which still works today, old school gate lift which is really cool. The room was spacious, the location was central to everything and the breakfast exceeded expectations with the staff all being great.

It’s a little old but it delivered exactly what we wanted with comfort.

The old lift and traditional tiling was quite cool. It's a good location for city centre shenanigans and the theatres. And the discount for the car park directly across the road was a bug bonus. We didn't access the bar or restraunt, but from what I glimpsed they looked pleasant. The bed was very comfy and the shower worked.

The room was quite run down, tele didn't work (not that I especially wanted to watch anything), there was some peeling paint, a bit of wallpaper coming away, the bath panel was obviously hiding a multitude of sins, and they'd put some glass tops on the old furniture but they were I'll fitting.

I liked the decor of the hotel, location and price.

The bed frame was broken so the bed was VERY soft. The plug sockets could also be updated to have USB/USBC chargers.

The lift was cool, the staff were very friendly, especially the lady in the brasserie for breakfast.

The view from the window The restaurant being shut even though the website says it is. The receptionist also was disappointed with that.

Breakfast Elevator and surrounding space

Room was too hot and window couldn't be opened

Clean & comfortable hotel at a great price for the centre of Glasgow.

Very limited bar & very pricey, but good location for loads of eating/drinking places.

Gorgeous comfy bed - perfect after walking all day.

There wasn't anything to dislike.

Everything

Nothing bad at all

Very nice and helpful staff. It was comfortable and we had a very nice stay.

Great location. Great staff.

Room was quite small. Found the bathroom not to be the cleanest. Always had to ask for towels.

Wonderful hotel - top class destination

The hotel was lovely, the style and decor were unique. The room was clean and tidy and the beds were comfy. Only downside, which I didn't think possible in Scotland was it being far too hot! The air con didn't cool the room down, and the windows do not open which meant it got far to hot and made a horrible sleeping experience when sharing a bed aswell.

Good location and great breakfast too.

Room furnishings could have been more modern such as wardrobe and the bathroom lock wasn’t great either. Room itself was nice, though could have been cleaned up better before we arrived.
