What guests think

At Leonardo Royal Hotel Glasgow, guests praise the central location by Glasgow Central Station, friendly staff, clean modern rooms, and a popular breakfast, while recurring drawbacks include train noise in some rooms and intermittent heating or air‑conditioning issues.

The gym stands out as excellent, and some rooms include access to an Executive Lounge with complimentary drinks and snacks. Several reviews note the immediate area feels rough after dark, and light sleepers should request a room away from the tracks. Dinner and bar service can be inconsistent, and on-site parking is via a nearby garage with a hotel discount. Expect a modern, well-run city base with potential noise trade‑offs.

We stayed in an Executive Twin room, and the beds were large and everything was clean. Fresh towels (even washcloths, aka flannels) were provided daily. And we had access to the Executive Lounge for bottled water, juices, coffee, tea, and snacks. Excellent gym! All of the weight machines and cardio equipment you’d want + free weights, mats, kettlebells, and a side studio for yoga / Pilates. Lots of windows. And there’s even a view of the river and trains coming and going.

Fantastic nights stay in the Leonardo Royal Hotel in Glasgow. We had an executive corner room which was very spacious and comfy, also with the added benefit of the executive lounge with free refreshments and snacks. We decided to have dinner in the bar/restaurant which was very nice and reasonable.

The hotel is only a few minutes walk to the main shopping area and has lots of good restaurants and bars nearby. We were staying overnight as we were attending a gig at the O2 Academy. The venue was a 7 or 8 minute walk from the hotel. The hotel is clean and decorated to a good standard with complimentary tea, coffee, water and shortbread in the room. A nice touch was a free welcome drink in the bar. The bed was comfortable and the shower had decent water pressure. The breakfast buffet had a large selection of hot and cold food, drinks and pastries, with an omelette bar where you can get a fresh omelette cooked to your own specifications. The hotel doesn’t have parking but if you pre book your vehicle into the car park across the road using the hotels discount code you get it for £12 a night, a good price for city centre parking. The car park had plenty of spaces and the bays were extra wide so lots of room for large vehicles. Entry and exit was via number plate recognition so no fumbling around for a ticket. All in all an excellent stay.

Cleaning was bad, they forgot to remove some blood stains at the shower and some other small mistakes. Room was really cold and heater didnt work that well (also turned off automatically after 1 hour when the room was finally starting to become normal temperature). Breakfast was good, but the same every day. Location is pretty good with malls around and the staff are very friendly. Overall this felt more like a 3* hotel.

Decent property. Better lighting and clothing storage for rooms. Only have a small closet. No drawers of any kind. Brighter light for bathroom and at the door, where there is another mirror but very poor lighting. Restaurant needs a change in menu items for lunch and dinner. I stayed 6 days. Very near to train station. Trains can be heard, if you’re a light sleeper. Overall, it was just ok. Oh, type c outlet at least on one side of the bed. I had to charge my phone and watch, out of reach.

Hotel has been nicely renovated, is in a convenient location and staff where polite and helpful, but depending on room allocation can be very noisy- I was unfortunately very close to train tracks, which run very frequently and very late. Was fine for me but wouldn’t be an option for families, young children.

Overall the hotel was conveniently located for Glasgow Central and shopping areas, breakfast was fine. The big negative was our room overlooked the train platform and we were woken up at 5am with constant train noise which was very disappointing and for this reason alone is why we wouldn't choose this hotel agan.

We were given a room on a higher floor which was nice but the noise from the railway station spoiled any chance of a peaceful night. Bed was not the most comfortable and it was difficult to get the room warm. Otherwise it is a lovely hotel in a very central location

While the location was very good and the staff and service were also very good, the room itself had virtually no space for clothes. Other than about six hangers, there were no drawers or other places to put your clothes. We had to live out of our suitcases - and I haven't done that since my college days - not something I like doing in retirement.

Lovely stay and the hotel staff were kind and helpful, we would love to stay again. The dining staff, however, ignored us for fifteen minutes despite it being very quiet and several staff members standing by the bar chatting. Not one person spoke to us, brought us water, or even told us that there was no service at that time, we were just completely ignored until we just left to eat somewhere else. I have never had an experience like that and it was incredibly disheartening.

We can’t say enough good things about their service. Thank you again!

Nice hotel and great location. Room was great and nice Breakfast. Let down was called ahead to place surprise bottle of Wine and message in my Mums room for her 60th Birthday. However hotel did not execute as promised. Apparently this was due to the bottle not being payed despite me offering to pay over the phone and being told to pay on check in at hotel. To top off was given 2 free drinks at the bar passed these on to my parents who then ordered their favorite GnT to then be told can only be used for Beer/House wine. Pretty embarrassing for me and my Wife. Simple comms not executed very well at all

Overall it was terrible. The car parking arrangements are a disaster and with road works between the hotel and the actual car park it took me 40 minutes to get parked. The night staff were oblivious to the local difficulty and were entirely uninterested. Also coming late to the hotel the bar closed 20 minutes before midnight which was the time the bar was supposed to close - again no empathy.

The hotel is in a great location right on the river and only a five minute walk to the shopping area of the city and there are many bars and restaurants within walking distance . The hotel is right next to the Grand central Railway station but the noise is minimal and the trains don't run all night. The staff are extremely helpful and efficient and go above and beyond to give great service . The breakfast is a great self service buffet with a really wide choice of food both hot and cold with an omlette station , a great way to start the day.
