charming hotel

attentive staff

we loved the charm of the ambassador. the staff was really kind and attentive. the front desk even provided parking tickets for a small fee, which saved us a lot! the rooms were small but clean and practical. it’s within walking distance to the bus stop by the kelvin river, making it easy to explore. breakfast included a full scottish spread.

A Delightful Stay with Charming Character

I enjoyed a solo stay in a cozy single room. The quirky creaks of the old building added charm to my peaceful retreat. I recommend exploring nearby cafes for breakfast, especially the one serving delightful pastries. Remember to bring earplugs for the occasional street noise!

Great service and cozy stay!

I recently spent a night here and was super impressed! The staff was super friendly, especially a guy named David who helped with my bags and pointed me to the best bus stop. The room was compact but cleverly designed. The only thing was the curtain could be a bit tricky to close if you're not tall enough. a comfy spot to stay in Glasgow.

Clean, updated rooms with modern bathrooms. Close proximity to the botanical gardens and other attractions in the West End.

The mattresses in room 4 felt old and lumpy. The parking situation was confusing, with charges that seemed contrary to what was advertised. Walls are thin. Any noise from neighboring rooms and hallways can disturb your peace, and the bathroom door creaks rather loudly.
