This place didn't have much going for it. You get a dingy, musty room with no top sheet on the beds, dirty windows, a somewhat clean bathroom, an unappetizing breakfast and that's it! A tent in the middle of the street would have been better.

This place looks and sounds great on the internet. The experience for me was unpleasant. Arrived after a long and tiring journey and had I not been made to pay on arrival (clever, eh?) would have left on seeing the rooms. The shabbiest hotel I have stayed in for 40 years. Worn out old furniture and decor. Very dirty windows... More

The decor was bolted to the walls, the carpet was smelly, the top sheets were missing, the previous guest's garbage was left in our room. I hardly slept. The internet didn't work. The service was pretty friendly but it didn't make up for the surprisingly bad experience.

Maybe it was our own fault, having come from a great B&B in Inverness, but arriving at Willow Hotel was a chock. It was a long uphill climb from the bus station to get there, and once there, we were showed to a room with smashed insects on the wall and no top sheets on the bed, which didn't look... More

Yes, you can walk from the train station - it's all uphill, and bumpy side-walks. You do get to walk past the Art School, so that's cool if you're a MacKintosh fan. We booked ahead and arrived late - what do you know - they had no record of our reservation. We were put into a room that was small,... More

Booking through an agency, my single room B&B cost £31.50, which represents first class value for a hotel literally in the next street to the famous Sauchiehall Street in the city centre; it is a 15 minute walk from Glasgow Central Railway Station. Check-in was efficient, and my room, 25, was spotlessly clean. The room had a double bed and... More

Reading some of the reviews I get the impression some people want four star service for this price. My shower was spotless, my bed was comfortable and clean. The staff were friendly and the breakfast was good. The only point I would make is try and emphasise somewhere in the advert or on the internet that the climb from the... More

Stayed here based upon a recommendation of a tour book. It was a good choice. The staff was friendly, and the location convenient. On street parking permit was available through the hotel. It's a typical UK hotel, in what is probably converted flats. The room was clean and spacious, and the bathroom clean as well. The breakfast was very good,... More
