Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Kimpton Blythswood Square Hotel is praised for its beautiful location right on Blythswood Square, near the City Centre, offering some rooms with great views of the square from floor-to-ceiling windows. Guests often appreciate the spacious rooms, comfortable beds, and complimentary mini-bar. While generally appreciated, a few guests have found the furniture to be slightly worn. The spa is a highlight for many, particularly the snow shower, and the restaurant is noted for its excellent service and delicious breakfast with freshly prepared dishes.

The staff was FRIENDLY. They remembered my name and room number several days after I checked in. The hotel also accommodated me when my flight was cancelled. They allowed me to keep my room and matched my original rate. Breakfast was quick with fresh and good quality food.
The gym was small. It had low ceilings and no natural light. Three pieces of equipment required electricity, but some did not work. Signage was terrible. I got lost going to and from my room. AC was inconsistent in the rooms. Some were freezing while others were too hot.
