The location is excellent—just a short walk from the university, making it super convenient for students or travelers exploring Glasgow. The staff at reception were incredibly friendly and helpful, always going the extra mile to ensure everything was smooth. While the room isn’t perfectly soundproof—some noise from neighboring rooms could be heard—the comfort and cleanliness more than made up for it.

I stayed here overnight for an event, and while it served its basic purpose, the room was perfectly adequate. That said, the hotel's overall decor hasn’t seen a refresh in years—there’s a real sense of outdated charm, especially when you consider how it looked back when it was known as The Pond. It definitely shows its age. However, the one standout was the front desk staff—a genuinely helpful and friendly person who made a big difference. Their professionalism and warmth turned what could’ve been a forgettable stay into something more pleasant. I wouldn’t choose this place first if I had options, but I’d consider it again as a last resort, simply because of that great service.
Staying at Campanile Glasgow Secc - Hydro was such a convenient choice—just a short walk from the University of Glasgow, making it easy to explore the city on foot. We took a local tour to Loch Ness from here, which involved a long day on the bus, but it was worth it for the experience. We spent about two hours at Loch Ness, and I highly recommend taking the boat cruise—it’s an unforgettable way to see the famous loch.

The big windows flooded the room with natural light, and being at the back of the building meant it was quiet and peaceful. The bed was incredibly comfortable, the room was warmly heated, and the Wi-Fi connection was strong and reliable. I appreciated having both a bathtub and an electric shower, plus complimentary toiletries. There was a TV, kettle, desk with a chair (great for working), plenty of power outlets, and a spacious open-plan wardrobe for storing clothes. The staff were genuinely friendly and helpful throughout my stay. My room was on the ground floor (Room 20), which made checking in easy—no need to carry luggage up stairs—but I did notice there’s no elevator, so guests with mobility challenges might want to consider that. The bus stop to the city center is literally right outside the door, and Byres Road is packed with cafes, grocery stores, and dining options. While some areas of the hotel feel dated, it’s still a great deal given the location and price point. What impressed me most was hearing from the front desk that they’re renovating floor by floor—so future upgrades could mean smarter rooms and possibly higher rates. That said, I’m already planning to come back to see what changes have been made!

Our third-floor room faced the old town, offering a charming view of the city’s character. The elevator worked smoothly, and the room was well-insulated—noise from the street didn’t carry in at all, even late into the night. The double glazing made a noticeable difference. Inside, the space was clean, well-presented, and thoughtfully designed: a comfortable bed, excellent bathroom with a strong shower, ample wardrobe space, a safe, mini-fridge, and complimentary tea, coffee, and water. Breakfast was generous and varied—great quality and a real highlight. The only minor note is that the room felt quite warm during our stay; the air conditioning didn’t seem to be activated, possibly due to the season. Still, that didn’t dampen the overall experience. This is a top-tier choice in Glasgow, and I’d highly recommend booking here without hesitation.
