We rented an apartment for a special family event and the booking process was great. The person we dealt with on the phone was very helpful and communicated all the information we required clearly.

The building itself if very deceptive and we actually drove straight passed it the first time because it’s not much to look at from the outside. It’s an old 1960’s / 70’s office block and previously the home of a cigarette manufacturer. It’s situated just of Sauchiehall Street, one of the main shopping thoroughfares in Glasgow.

Inside, the building has been renovated to a high standard and we were taken to our room by the receptionist who explained how everything worked.

The apartment we had didn’t give us the view you see in the website pictures, we were just above a flat, felt covered roof and looked on to a backstreet which was close to a nightclub and frequented by late night revellers and boy racers. I was surprised that the floor to ceiling windows offered virtually no ability to block out sound – we were able to hear the conversations of the people on the street below! Needless to say, if you’re expecting a good night’s sleep, this is not the place for you.

We also encountered a problem with the water in the apartment where the hot water system appeared to lose all pressure after running the tap for more than a minute. This was a big problem when everyone was trying to get a shower in the morning! The guard at reception knew what the problem was and was able to fix it very quickly but, over the weekend, the same thing happened several times.

We paid extra for the underground parking and if you’re taking a car, I’d recommend you do this too.

These are nice apartments, situated in the centre of the city. However, based on my experience, they are starting to show wear and tear now and noise levels generated from the street will put off young families.

Ohh It was a suprise to ckeck-in to the Hotel. It was my birthday and my girlfriend booked the hotel but she didnt tell me that we will stay there. She just told me that one of her friend staying there and she invite us for a cup of coffee. Receptionist lady was soo nice and took us to the room which is on the 13th floor and she opened the door and said 'Happy birthday' and i realise what is going on. It was a nice suprise as much as the hotel. Ohh great view!! It was the best hotel and apartment i ever stay in. I stayed in some 5stars hotel but l can easily say Glasgow Loft is better than all of them.
I want to say thanks to my girlfriend for this fantastic accomodation.
Hope will come again.

stayed at glasgow loft mid week, was everything we expected. few minutes walk from city centre, and train station. concierge very friendly. we stayed on the 9th floor and had amazing views of the city, the weather was kind to us so was very warm & sunny on arrival. the only downside was that the apartment was very hot, but they did provide us with a couple of fans. apartment had everything you needed, we decided to dine in that evening & enjoy the views. glasgow is a beatiful city only wish we had more time to explore, will definately stay here again.

We stayed at Glasgow Lofts for 6 nights In May. From the moment we phoned to make our reservations, we knew we were on to a winner. Helpful staff with great advice and slick service made us confident that we would be well looked after. Arriving by car was a bit tricky --one way streets around the Lofts --so download directions--but once we found our underground car park and were welcomed by the concierge we were at home right away. Our apartment was on the 6th floor and we had great views of the city. Marks and Spencer's food hall was diagonally across the road and a late closing supermarket was one street away. Great restaurants were also close so there were no problems with choosing to stay in or head out. Rooms were spacious and the standard of cleaning first class. Beautiful linen, towels, toiletries (small bottles though and not enough for 2 people for 6 days) fine china and top of the range appliances in the kitchen made it a joy to prepare meals. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff--a request for extra china and cutlery to accommodate visitors was done with courtesy and every effort to assist. Previous reviews are spot on about the quality of the apartments. We were lucky to score brilliant weather which made the glass fronted lounge room quite warm--air conditioning is not on the Scottish radar--but cleaning staff ensured blinds were drawn and a fan (of sorts) was a bit of a help. The heating system was very efficient but Scotland was basking in May sunshine so we didn't get to use it. I would imagine it would make a winter visit very comfortable, Glasgow was a top place and our time there was much too short. However we have continued to rave about the Lofts to anyone who will listen and we'll definitely be back. Few hotels could rival the quality of the Lofts and for ease of access to everything a tourist wants and needs in a big city they are unbeatable. Well done to all staff

This was our first trip to Scotland and we were having a difficult time finding a place to stay in Glasgow. When we found the Glasgow Loft Apartments online we knew our search had ended! We hoped that our experience would meet our expectations from the reviews and photos on the website. The apartment managers were very accommodating with our booking. This was helpful considering we were calling from the US.

Upon our arrival we were greeted by one of the fantastic concierges that we had the privilege of meeting during our stay. We were directed to our room, and it was beyond our expectations. We had originally requested a room with a good view, hoping for an upper level apartment. To our surprise, they gave us the top floor apartment. This was not only was an upgrade from a one bedroom to a two bedroom (at no additional cost) - but was also, in our opinion, the best apartment in the building.

We were so impressed with the cleanliness, spaciousness, and sleek modern interior of our apartment that we took pictures of every room :). We also could not get enough of the stunning panoramic view of Glasgow!!! We also appreciated the free membership at the fitness club 1/2 block away which included a workout area, sauna, swimming pool, and jacuzzi. Other amenities worth mentioning were the jacuzzi bathtub and bidet located in our master bathroom.

The lofts were situated near the city center, allowing us to conveniently access major shopping areas and restaurants.

The concierge staff were very hospitable, knowledgeable, and possessed a great sense of humor. They went out of their way to help us find whatever we were in search of - which included restaurants, Loch Lomond, the SECC, and a last minute Glasgow Ranger soccer game!

If you are planning a trip to Glasgow, stay at the Glasgow Loft Apartments!!! From our viewpoint (which incidentally was the best view in the city) there isn't a better place in Glasgow to stay!!
