We stayed here for a night while on our way to the Highlands. The location was perfect, walking distance to both Central and Queens rail stations. The streets were filled with musicians - which is great, unless you want to take an afternoon nap in your room and the music bothers you. For us, we were delighted. The restaurant food... More

Stayed here for three nights for a wedding recently. Fantastic location- literally around the corner from the Queens street rail station and the underground station and a block away from the style mile and city center. Rooms are comfortable and good sized. The free mini bar and whiskey/vodka/gin decanters are a nice touch. We ended up using the executive lounge... More

We had a weekend stay at the Carlton George with friends who had been before to the CG and who had recommended it. The staff are all very friendly and the hotel has a cosy intimate feel to it unlike some bigger impersonal chain hotels. The location is perfect for access to shops bars and restauarants, all of which we... More

Most notably, the service in this hotel was uniformly excellent. Each staff member was friendly and warm as well as extremely helpful and responsive. I really liked the room - it was a good size, cute and immaculate, and the free booze is a nice touch! Like other reviewers, I wasn't totally taken with the breakfast, although it was certainly...

At 02:11 in the morning the room air con unit developed a major fault and started making very loud banging noises. So a trip to the lobby and very soon the night porter agreed this noise was unacceptable and gave us the key to the next room (204) which was laid out better than (203) anyway. The rooms are clean...

A positive welcome at reception together with roaring fire on a dreich day in May. The room was vastly overheated and thick bedding did not help. Even with aircon turned up full it was too hot . If you opened the window you could add the noise from the large air con unit outside to the high speed one inside.... More

Staff are brilliant - they are very good at knowing when you want to chat and when you want to be left alone. Room service always just as you would expect to get in the restaurant. Room is really comfortable and clean with all amenities and it is really great to have a drink from the mini-bar and not worry... More

Great accommodation clean and of a good size. Nothing is too much trouble. Courteous service with a smile and right in the heart of Glasgow. Great for shopping or a business overnight trip. Hairdryer was broken so I asked and they dropped up a brand new one! Drinks are all free from the bar in the room which is a... More

We were delighted to be able to spend another few days at this lovely hotel. The weather was kind and it was great to spend some time sitting on our balcony with a glass of complimentary alcohol! There were a couple of minor problems with room fittings but these were resolved quickly. There are two reasons I didn't give a... More

I took a trip to the island of Iona off of Scotland for a few days. On my way back, a friend recommended that I stay my last night in Glasgow at the Carlton George Hotel. I got off the train and was easily able to find my way to the hotel (in the rain). When I walked in the... More
