Kimpton Blythswood Square Hotel, an IHG Hotel

Lovely hotel but room was slightly tired and not as clean as we would have expected with dirty spills and stains on table legs and skirting boards beside the bed. Chipped woodwork etc in bathroom. We booked specially to take our baby in the pool having called in advance to check prior to confirming the booking but on arrival were told it wasn’t possible. The lady was lovely and apologetic offering a free round of drinks but it was really quite disappointing and meant we couldn’t use the spa/pool facilities as planned together instead having to take turns within the select hours available to hotel residents - also not as expected. It was supposed to be a bit of a treat and it just didn’t quite work out as I had envisaged. I used my hotels.com reward voucher towards it but had I paid the full rate I would have been pretty unhappy. Wonderful breakfast, beautiful decor throughout. Parking available nearby at a discounted rate. Approx £20 per day. Reception quite busy, had to call numerous times before someone answered. I think the hotel may have been busier than usual though. Staff all very friendly and professional. I would come back but I do think for the money there shouldn’t be any snags and the cleanliness should be tip top.

First time staying at the Blythswood was extremely impressed. I stayed here on the day before my wedding and the night of the wedding. The staff made it extra special with some touches of class. The bed was extremely comfy and the room was so dark l slept like a baby Looking forward to staying again.

Only downside was booked this hotel so granddaughter could swim with family but two days after cancellation could be done, got phone call to say pool wasn't open but did get discount for this. However, the staff in this hotel are wonderful, very friendly and nothing was a bother to them. Room was beautiful so would def go back.
