Please do not go here. Bed was really hard and uncomfortable. Owner demanded payment as soon as we arrived, before we had even seen the room! Not only that but he was very unfriendly and not at all polite and welcoming. Water coming out of shower was either boiling hot or freezing. A very depressing experience for my husband and I.

This is the most horrible hotel i have ever stayed in.
the room was choking with air freshener (to cover up what i dont know???)
the beds were damp and the walls were covered in odd black streaks.
the windows dont open and the window sills were covered in dead flys!
the proprietors were on the unfriendy side too!


avoid avoid avoid!!

Compared to some of the other B&B's we stayed at in Scotland, the Hillhead was not as luxurious. However, the manager on duty was very friendly and helpful with local knowledge. Breakfast was very good, as it is everywhere in Scotland! Our room was in the basement of the hotel (really a B&B, despite the name) ... and while adequately large for a family of 4, the wallpaper just screamed PINK and the mattresses definitely need to be retired. Good location ... close to the University of Glasgow and the Hunterian Art Museum (a must-see). Only about 3 blocks to the tube station, where you can catch the subway to downtown Glasgow. Many restaurants available in the university district.

This place was a great find! Very convenient for the University and Glasgow's West End nightlife. The place was spotless and the staff could not be more helpful. I will definitely be staying at the Hillhead Hotel again.
