7 GREAT REASONS TO BOOK DIRECT

A perfect stay! We were lucky to spend two nights at the Acorn as part of a family weekend away in Glasgow, and truly can’t recommend it highly enough! The hotel was wonderfully pleasant and welcoming, located in a lovely leafy area of the West End that was perfect for exploring the Kelvingrove Museum, University of Glasgow and Botanic Gardens, as well as the many excellent bars and eateries of the Finnieston district. (We particularly enjoyed The Finnieston for its seafood and Ox and Finch for its small plates.) Glasgow Central Station and George Square were also under 30 minutes away on foot, and regular bus links were available into the city centre from close to the hotel on Sauciehall Street. After a busy day exploring the city, our rooms were an ideal place to relax with their comfy beds, tasteful decor and thoughtful little touches like a teapot and biscuits, tissues and even GHD straighteners. The single room was just as comfortable and cosy as the doubles, and a great option for solo/uncoupled travellers who can sometimes be forgotten about. We would like to say a special thank you to the hotel manager, Alan, who made our stay a pleasure from start to finish with his warm personality, helpful recommendations and map directions, top-notch breakfast and flexibility with checking in early and leaving our bags after we checked out in the morning. We are also grateful to him for introducing us to potato scones as part of his delicious Scottish breakfast, and we are all avid converts! Our only regret is that we only stayed for two nights, and we very much hope to return soon to discover the other riches Glasgow has to offer and to return to this lovely hotel.

Very enjoyable stay Great welcome, clean and comfortable room, excellent breakfast, quiet location. Very good value. Short walk from Charing Cross Station. Easy walk to Kelvingrove Museum and Glasgow weather through park.

Strongly recommend Great location. Good room. Kevin was exceptionally helpful at check-in. Will be happy to stay here again. Close to parks, cafés and restaurants. Only quibble was lack of soap in shower which we were told will be rectified.

Wkd Stay Very warm cosy comfortable room. The hotel is very accessible from the centre. 20 minute walk or 10 minute bus journey. Also 20 minute walk into tge West End through the lovely Kelvingrove Pk. We arrived quite early and the lovely Kevin really accomodated us on early Check In. Room was very clean and well facilitated. Breakfast was grand. Probably the best aspect of the stay was how Kevin treated us. Really friendly approachable and accomodating. This guy is a real asset to the hotel. I hope the hotel appreciates him.

Excellent hotel in west end of Glasgow This hotel is ideal for city centre and west end of Glasgow on foot. I have stayed here a number of times, always my first choice when in Glasgow. Quiet, comfortable, cosy, and staff are excellent. Fantastic value for money.

A gem of an Hotel We had an excellent one night stay at the Acorn Hotel. Very welcoming and friendly front of house. The room was well maintained, bathroom was modern and spotless. Superb breakfast. Alan was a terrific host. Highly recommend.

Excellent value in the city The hotel is easy to find and we had no problem parking opposite. The welcome was efficient and friendly, and we got some excellent suggestions for local eateries. The room was very comfortable and looked over to a nearby garden though trees stopped us seeing in. The bed was comfortable and the room clean. Breakfast was a good but small buffet selection and the cooked breakfast was done to order. We would choose to stay here again.

Great place to stay in Glasgow Stayed here several times and it’s always been a pleasure. The staff are friendly and helpful and their breakfast is recommended. The rooms are warm, spacious and have the usual facilities. Location is great for us as it’s on the edge of Kelvingrove park near Glasgow Uni (to visit our son) and within a 20min walk to the centre of Glasgow or 20min walk to the SECC/Hydro for concerts etc.

A great base to explore Glasgow A perfect location for exploring Glasgow. The hotel is clean and staff are really friendly and helpful. It has a family feel and as a solo female traveler visiting family I feel very safe and looked after. It’s so close to Kelvingrove Park and all the West End sights and also just a wee walk to the city centre.
