"Great Location"
8th March 2013, BrenandJo, London
Nice hotel in a great location right in Merchant City. Overall the hotel was fine, with a good Accor Hotels Priviledge card rate offer, I can't complain too much! The hotel itself is a liit;e worn and old fashioned, if not out-dated/ Walls very thin and at times the noise from the 'hen party' in the room next door was unbearable, door constantly being opened and loud banging when closed! Even laughing and gnerally normal talking could be heard... The corner room I had, also had an odd layout with parts of the shelving not being easily accessable. These were also dusty, along with the bedside lamps... Bathroom needs a tidy up, extractor fan was very dusty and the tiling around the bathroom was messy and unnattractive! Other than that the reception staff were charming and very helpful, interested in my visit. Weekday breakfast staff were an older employee (and seemed local) they knew what they were doing, were very professional and rated excellent!! The weekend staff, much younger and possibly Eastern EU employees were not so.... Poor!!

"Perfectly acceptable"
25th February 2013, JeremiahHuff, Edinburgh, United Kingdom
A good clean hotel, efficient service, nice bar, but room was a bit cold and no air conditioning, only a radiator which wasn't always on. Location is central and handy for shops etc. Just about qualifies as value for money - pushing the top end of that category for me!

"Good Location - Friendly Staff - Need for Refurbishment"
11th February 2013, Cityboy92, Rome, Italy
Overall, I have enjoyed my 6-night stay at this hotel. The staff was very kind, and although I was given a small room that urgently needs refurbishment, they immediately agreed to move me to another one the second night.

"Glasgow on Foot"
1st February 2013, RabPBris, Bristol
We had used this hotel perviously for a base to attend a wedding last June. The hotel was good as was breakfast. however they promote use of local produce but to be hionest this was only honey, not everybody's favourite early morning. I was disappointed not to see ayrshire bacon, square slice sausages tattie scones and black and white pudding. These are as much a local flavour as the honey, again while not to everyone's taste or dietary needs coudl be offered, nonetheless the breakfast was good and the staff in the restaurant attentive.I alos have sent a seperate complaint about certain thngs that were not in place as advertised by mercure, a welcome pack, even after not receiving this nor discovering in rom allowed time for staff to realise it had been forgotten to discreetly place in the room, the other disappoinment was that it took so long to queque to offer the complaint that our schedule took over and we got on. It was also too late on the last day then to complain about a welcome gift. The hotel for all that had friendly staff, good location for all of Glasgows attractions and is convenient for the airport bus . I am a Glasgow man so can certainly recommend but if you book at a price make sure you get what you were promised. The location offers opportunity to see City Centre attractions on foot.

Management responseDear GuestThank you very much for your review and feedback about your stay at the Mercure Glasgow City.Where possible, we do endeavour to use as much locally sourced produce as we can on our menus. Sometimes, whether or not a certain product can be used comes down to availability and supply in order to meet demand. I will pass your comments onto the Head Chef in order to ensure any changes are made as we can.I am sorry that the welcome gift was not in your room for arrival nor provided during your stay. This was an oversight by our front office team and I can only apologise for this. We would have provided it for your onward journey if you had mentioned it at check out however, I do understand the circumstances and I am very sorry for this.I do hope that this has not put you off booking with us again in the future, as we would be delighted to welcome you back to the hotel.Kind regardsMonica DochertyGeneral Manager

"Tiny room..."
30th September 2012, showbizandi, London
This hotel was previously something else and was taken over by Mercure. My room was so small that I had to turn sideways to move around the bed. There were only 9 inches (22cm) between the bottom of the bed and the desk. One very small window over an alleyway and in Glasgow alleyways are NEVER quiet places. Breakfast was very low quality and the dining was in Reception as there was a function going on in the restaurant, so I was able to watch people check in as I wondered if my bacon had seen a grill. Additional charge for cappuccinos at breakfast time is poor. Wouldn't recommend it. Staff were fine, didn't make me feel welcome or go the extra mile but were fine.
