Clifton Hotel

Room immaculate and spacious considering it was a small double. Bathroom in good order but some of the tiles In shower could do with re grouting. Bed very comfortable and sheets etc spotlessly clean and crisp. Room warm as central heating very effective! Reception staff very informative on arrival. Although continental breakfast provided we preferred just tea in our room. Plenty tea, coffee and milk provided. Only low point was the noise from the Oran Mor club! Think I would ask for a rear room if returning.

Good value Victorian hotel in the fantastic location of Glasgow's West End. My small double room had everything I needed for an overnight but I would have happily stayed longer. Room was clean and had big windows so it was bright and at the back of the hotel which meant it was quiet. Bed was very comfy, room was properly heated, wifi was strong, I had a bath but there was an electric shower as well with toiletries provided, TV, kettle and an open plan type wardrobe to hang and store clothes. There was a desk and chair if you needed to work and plenty plug points. Staff were lovely and friendly. Luckily for me my room (20) was on the ground floor so I didn't need to lug all my stuff upstairs but I believe there isn't a lift which may be a consideration if you had mobility issues. The bus stop to the city centre is right outside the hotel but there are lots of shops, supermarkets and restaurants around Byres Rd. Would recommend this hotel but be realistic about it considering it's a bit old fashioned in places but great for the price and the location. The receptionist told me they were renovating floor by floor so perhaps the prices will rise but the rooms will be smarter. I'll be back to find out!

We stayed at the Clifton a few years ago and embraced its quirkiness, e.g. uneven floorboards and old-fashioned features. We especially loved the room with the corner bath, so we booked again recently with this in mind. Unfortunately, this hotel is no longer just quirky. No effort appears to have been made to carry out simple maintenance and repairs. The bath couldn't be used as there was no plug. Even if we'd requested a bath plug, the filthy shower curtain (jammed closed on a flimsy piece of bare wood), would have been in the way. Floor and wall tiles were cracked, with some missing completely, and bedroom windows were unsealed. This hotel can no longer be classed as being in a quiet area, as the shouting from outside a bar opposite (on a Tuesday and Wednesday night) went on until after 4am. The smell of ********* as we walked back into reception last night was also interesting.

The hotel is fine, old fashioned but that’s okay, rooms well laid out and housekeeping check in daily. No breakfast available. The bathroom was a bit musty with mould evident. A requirement to leave room keys at reception when you pop out which is very odd . Staff nice and it’s a reasonable base for a couple nights.

We stayed here on Tuesday night go attend a concert. The building is beautiful and really well situated for food and pubs. Check in was straightforward and we found our room which was beautiful it had a 4 poster bed and dark furniture with huge windows. The room was lovely and warm and really clean. We were asked to hand our key in to reception when we left the hotel to make sure we didn't lose the key which I was a bit dubious about but it was fine. Bed was comfy and we both slept really well. The one thing I would say is the coffee sachets in the room weren't up to much I think they'd been there a while so it may be worth changing those but overall a fabulous stay and we'd definitely stay again.

This hotel is in a great location in the city’s west end. The deluxe twin had 2 double beds and plenty of floor space meaning we didn’t feel cramped. There is a small car park at the rear. The only bit I didn’t like was having to hand our key in key every time we went out. We had to buzz to get back in and staff may have been busy as we had to wait a few minutes. Apart from that, it was a great stay.

For the price paid this hotel absolutely suited our needs, the facilities worked, the staff were helpful and friendly and it was well placed for our visit. Do not stay here expecting a 5 star hotel, you are not paying 5 star prices and it is not that… it is however a very good standard for the money you are paying. The room was cleaned daily which I would not expect at all for the price point and our length of stay. The room had a kettle with and tea coffee making facilities, some toiletries were also included on arrival. Something to note is that there are no lifts here and you may have to climb stairs to get to your accommodation. This is advertised so I cannot understand why we heard complaining customers while we were there.

The hotel is in a great location handy for nights out in the westend. The hotel needs a bit of TLC and the decor freshened up I was in room 9 and could not get the TV to work but as I was only there one night it wasn't too much of a problem. I have rated it 4 stars due to location and the very helpful and attentive receptionist Nicci

Ideal for Botanic Gardens, Oran Mor and West End. Rooms very large, just a bit faded and frayed around the edges. Large bathroom inc bath was nice. Rooms at front will be subjected to noise in the evening but you get to sleep eventually. Check in very regimented, id photocopied is a bit daunting, especially if only staying for one night, not had that anywhere else in Glasgow ever..?! Takeaway continental breakfast in the morning provided.
