My stay at the Glasgow Grosvenor Hotel was a mixed experience. While I enjoyed the charming historic character and the lovely location near the botanic gardens, the quality of the room left a lot to be desired. I faced issues with noise from the nearby Waitrose car park and fan ducting, which disrupted my sleep. Additionally, the breakfast was quite disappointing, lacking variety and freshness, leaving me to seek out local cafes. Overall, I felt the hotel has potential but requires significant refurbishing.
