Good day! I was very surprised when I arrived from 2 flights the room was ready and what a lovely room with a corner view in 8 th floor Jamie the front desk put me in! The river is there beautiful birds flying back and forth and I woke up seeing the birds flying and then I saw at night the full moon in the sky so spectacular while I lay in the bed!
I requested a news paper and they had it ready before I left!
I must mention staff are so warm including Katie, Gerry, AMANDA who helped me get the newspaper complimentary early and JAMIE who were all well trained!
Jamie was an exceptional well trained highly courteous and very sugar sweet personality! He knows how to make customers stress free and happy and I will recommend this hotel to others!
I arrived into a lovely reception area refreshments on the table !
Restaurant made me a delicious meal!
Breakfast was filling and very clean location!
LIDL is across the street for any essentials!
Central station is nearby !
Queen station is around 20 minutes non stop walk trains going rapidly to Edinburgh every 30 minutes!
There are lots of bars restaurants like busy and different styles nearby!
Buchanan train station buses go or walking 25 mins and train station nearby to get there fast!
Recommend taking the day tour Rabbie’s to OBAN and mountain viewing , Loch s and a beautiful castle
Take the train to see the TUNNOCKS FACTORY area AND BAKERY FOR DELICIOUS CARAMELs from glasglow to UDDINGSTON train stop!

We felt very taken care of and like our needs mattered. The associates we encountered were super friendly and helpful. The property isn’t in the most attractive area of the city, with the train tracks as our window view, but we appreciated the wonderful noise blocking from the windows. We barely noticed the trains running. The bed was very comfortable.

Only con was the amount of water that got on the floor because of the 1/2 glass. It seems like a slip hazard waiting to happen.

The bathroom was clean and amenities within the room we had were good, breakfast was varied with a selection of cold and hot buffet items.

The negative for me was the sound proofing of the room which was terrible, we were awoken with coughing from the room next door and use of the toilet, which would put me off using this hotel again.

We’ve stayed once before, and that time there were no issues at all, it was lovely. This time, not so much. Upon arrival we were checked in and offered a free ‘upgrade’ to a room further from the train tracks to allow for better sleep, which was kind, but the people in the room next door were loud (shouting and banging) so we had to call reception twice, midnight and 2am, to ask them to send someone up to have a word. The pipes/ something in the bathroom made dripping noises all night to the point of me fully worrying the toilet was overflowing. The room looked lovely, but one of the pillow cases had what looked like makeup stains and we found a fake eyelash under one of the pillow cases. I made reception well aware of this when we checked out and she seemed not to care one bit. Nice toiletries and a comfy bed, but we won’t be staying again any time soon.

We paid for a \"superior king\" room with a river view, we were two floors up from reception and the only thing we could see out of the window was the set of train tracks. The trains on those tracks kept us up late and woke us up early and were so noisy that we requested to switch rooms to a quieter part of the hotel. Something which I have never had to do at any hotel I've stayed at before.

We were then moved to a room for the next two nights at the front of the hotel which overlooked the main road. This room was even worse than the first one noise wise, we barely managed to sleep a few hours a night because of the traffic & road noises combined with issues in the room and people shouting in the hallways.

The second room had a broken air conditioner/heater which made a lot of noise, the fridge was missing all the shelves and the TV wouldn't work properly.

While I'm under no illusion the hotel can be responsible for noise outside, the stay was terrible because of these reasons. Considering we paid for a superior king room in an already expensive hotel we felt very let down by the quality of the rooms.

Second time we have stayed here and this time brought family we had recommend the hotel to. Only thing that could be improved is that despite adding breakfast on through Leonardos own pre-arrival email system this wasn’t documented and we were left to feel like we were trying it on by check in staff. Disappointing along with having to ask for the complementary drink that was part of our rate. Maybe Expedia can liaise so your systems align and avoid this embarrassing experience for future guests.

Have no real complaints. Room (601) was satisfactory, and I had a good comfy night's sleep. A decent sized room, with all the expected facilities - tv, tea/coffee etc.Also a good sized bathroom. Heating worked great, once I worked out how to operate the thermostat. That wasn't easy as it was hard to see the thermostat properly. Which brings me to my only real issue with the room ...

I found the room to be quite dark. There was no \"MAIN\" ceiling light in the room - only a small spotlight in the ceiling of the entranceway. The only other lighting consisted of bedside lamps and one single floor lamp in the corner of the room near ther window. This really wasn't enough to light the room in order to see the thermostat properly, or read the information book. Basically, the side of the room where the TV, wardrobe and coffee making facilities were was just too dark to see anything.

Other than that minor annoyance, I found the room perfectly acceptable.

I stayed at this hotel for two nights and, unfortunately, the experience was extremely disappointing due to constant noise and lack of comfort.

Housekeeping on our floor early in the morning was excessively loud, with continuous rattling of glass bottles outside our room and staff talking very loudly. Throughout the night, there were repeated loud door slams on the floor, random door clicking noises, and the air conditioning made intermittent loud sounds that disrupted sleep. Between approximately 6–7am, there was also a loud noise that sounded like water draining, which was particularly disturbing.

The room offered no real sense of relaxation. Despite the TV volume being capped at 40, it was barely audible due to the surrounding noise. As a result, we had very little sleep over the two nights we stayed. The mattress was also extremely firm, adding to the discomfort.

Because we were so exhausted from the noise, we were unable to make use of the breakfast we had paid for, as we needed the time to try to sleep instead.

Overall, this was the noisiest hotel we have ever stayed in, and the level of noise was completely unnecessary and unacceptable. Sadly, this stay fell far below expectations, and I would not choose to return.

The hotel its beautiful and big. Staff at the main bar reastaurant are not. No personalities ' young inexperienced. Really upset me and my husband . 1st ordered baileys coffee & cream' they came & told us after 5mins no cream in whole hotel' then orderd americano' came down cold 'sent it back 2nd one was fine' kids food came down cold' our starter was a joke chilli prawn' we then cancelled our own food. Was so frustrating ' then while one of my sons was still eating and my husband was finishing his pint they came down & asked for payment . That was the last straw for me. I explained it to young girl that was sent down to us who does that ' her supervisor send her down. I went up to her supervisor & said it to her. Why would you come down for payment when we were not finished' she couldnt answer. To me it felt like she taught we were not going to pay little did she know we were staying in the hotel. I was so upset. I brought it to hotel management they were nice. They were looking at receipt to see if money was taking off the bill. As we said it had nothing to do with the bill it was how we were treated. How does a chef not get the food out hot. We had to leave and go else where for dinner. This is at 8 in eve out in the freezing cold kids hungry and us.The next morning the manager came over & said we would get our breakfast for 18p and kids free to make up for night before. Breakfast was lovely fresh
Made omelettes infront of us and kids pancakes. Rooms were lovely.

Absolutely fabulous hotel in a central location.

We were offered and paid for an upgrade on arrival, which allowed us to access the executive lounge, which meant we had free hot and soft drinks and snacks for the whole stay. We used this extensively.

The room was very quiet, even though we were next to the central station and the lift. The room was very comfortable and cosy.

The hotel was spotlessly clean and staff were charming and very helpful. They were all also extremely industrious. No one was ever idle, nothing was left undone, and they worked constantly and seamlessly, e.g. at breakfast everything was tidied and cleaned straight away, everything replenished, at the front desk, staff were ensuring they had everything to hand and the public areas were spotless, etc. It was a seamless operation. I felt that everyone genuinely cared about what they did and this enhanced the customer experience.

Breakfast was varied and good. The guy on the desk at breakfast was a delight.

This was a great stay, made exceptional by the staff. Highly recommended - I certainly will be back.
