Very old fashioned and tired hotel. I was very disappointed by the room, it was dark and gloomy and the view was of a brick wall. It could do with a revamp. The food was nothing special. The city inn is so much better.

I arrived in Glasgow on October 3, 2005, and went immediately to my prearranged hotel, the Carleton George. I had selected it for its four stars, and its proximity to Queens Train Station. I was so early, about 8:30am, that I did not think my room would be ready. To my very pleasant surprise, as I was already so weary from my long flight from California, my room was ready, and I can tell you it was a joy to be taken to my very comfortable abode for the next three days. That night I ate in the hotel restaurant, more of a bistro, and had the best salmon I have ever eaten in my life! Grilled to perfection, along with the vegetables. Breakfast in the same room was very good, and the view from the top of the hotel room was excellent of Glasgow, either night or day. My own room view was not of anything special, but I did get natural light. I cannot say enough about the staff, who were ever ready to assist me - I really had a very bad case of jet lag this trip, and appreciated all their TLC. I would not want to stay anywhere else if/when I return to Glasgow.

just back from staying 2 nights in this hotel. the hotel staff are excellent, very efficient and pleaseant. our room was on the 3rd floor and our only complaint was the room was very stuffy. the room also had a complimentary mini bar and complimentary drinks and biscuits were again served in the bar on the 7th floor. the hotel is spotlessly clean througout and it is in a great location for shopping sightseeing etc. breakfast was good and was served in the main restaurant with great views of the city of glasgow.

I was here for an entire month straight. So, if you want an objective review from someone who only got a snapshot of the hotel, you should find this review helpful.

First, I have to say that the manager, Lucy, has done an exceptional job with this property. I understand that she's only been a head manager for a few years now. If this is true, she's in for one meteoric career.

My hats off to the wonderful staff who made every day (even weekends) absolutely terrific. To Allister, Donald, Colin, Jeff, Alessandro, Graham, Thomas, and others whom I've obviously left out.

Best service bar none for an entire month. And great property as well. Will definitely be back, for pleasure if not for business!
