Leonardo Royal Hotel Glasgow

10/10 Excellent

"This is the perfect hotel for any train lover. My son is a massive fan of the trains and we had a lovely room overlooking the Glasgow central platforms. I have never seen my child so excited to be in a lovely room whilst being able to watch the trains come and go. Our room is as extremely comfortable and everything was to a high standard. The coffee, tea and bottles of water were well received and the white company toiletries in the bathroom smelled divine. The bathroom was spacious and the shower was clean, warm, powerful and felt luxurious especially with the tiling. Our beds were very comfortable and I haven’t slept so well in ages. We would highly recommend because the hotel is wonderful and the location is perfect for everything"

Point A Glasgow

8/10 Good

"The hotel is ideally placed within Glasgow City centre and very close to both main train stations and the city bus station. The hotel is maintained well. The room allocated (402) was a good size for a single occupant. The bed was comfortable and a good size. Unfortunately the temperature in the room was very cold.☹️I attempted to alter the temperature (unsuccessfully). The shower in the morning was lukewarm.☹️Breakfast was very good.👍😊 All of the staff I encountered at reception and breakfast were very friendly, helpful and courteous. I would stay in the hotel again but look at the heating in Room 402. Thank you."
