The hotel had to provide extra duvets and a heater for our room --- apparently the heating wasn't working on 2 floors of the hotel but they still put guests there.Had I been told that the heating wasn't working we would have gone home.We were there for The Nutcracker-- the hotel was a special Xmas treat--- first time I've had to sleep with 2 duvets and a jumper on!
The heating system not functioning in guest rooms, hallways. No notice given as though it was perfectly normal. Provided small space heaters. Fire alarm sounded at 5:55 AM. No notification, I.e., announcements of the problem or of it not being a drill. The alarm finally goes off after evacuating, but still not one word from the hotel. When checking out about 30 minutes later I was simply asked, “how was my stay?” Beautiful hotel, but wow.
On arrival we were told that dinning that evening was not available, due to numerous functions.
Trying to order a drink at the bar was a nightmare, staff not attentitive and focused on party goers. When we did eventually get a drink there were no seats again all taken by those attending functions.
As for the room, not what was shown online. Smallest bathroom ever.
On arrival the room was cold so we increased the temperature, however on our return some hours later it was obvious that the thermostat was not working properly.
It was noticeable that the room had no drawers either not ideal.
Room was sold as having two Queens sized beds, not true, one Queen and the other was slightly bigger than a single.
We intended to use the swimming pool, however again due to the hotel being busy made this impossible.
Plus point was the location.
We always feel safe when we stay here on our yearly Christmas shopping trip. There are lot's of works going on around Sauchiehall Street to improve the area. This never spoiled our stay at the hotel. The hotel has a very festive atmosphere.
