University in Glasgow

“Can't beat a private tour. First time booking with ToursByLocals. Glad I found Matthew! Weeks before our arrival, we were back and forth selecting the best way to spend our day together for my family of 5 adults from Canada of Clan Cameron of Erracht heritage. Matthew was knowledgeable, funny and accommodating!! Shortly after meeting us, we had an excellent banter. We all laughed a lot. Despite a mix of sun and quite miserable wind, rain and hail, Matthew made our day touring the Inverness area perfect!!”

“Beautiful place to visit. Do not miss it if in the area. The whole university is stunning.”

“We had our first visit here last evening and have to say if we stayed in Glasgow we would be here all of the time. I had put in a request for a quieter area if possible due to our daughter struggling with busy areas. They went above and beyond making sure she was comfortable and it made her evening to feel so special. The food was 10 out of 10 for all meals, the kids came out as soon as it was ready. Really the best evening.”

“An absolutely stunning campus to visit! The University of Glasgow feels like stepping into history – the architecture is breathtaking, with its Gothic towers and beautiful cloisters that look like something out of Harry Potter. The Hunterian Museum and the university grounds are free to explore, and the views over the city are amazing. Even if you’re not a student, it’s a must-see attraction when visiting Glasgow. If you're visiting with kids, like I did, it's definitely an inspiration for them.”

“Had a fantastic weekend stay with my husband at the Radisson Red Glasgow. We went over for the Skyline weekend and the hotel did not disappoint. The service is second to none from easy check-in, to the restaurant and bar staff at the amazing roof top Sky bar. The rooms are spacious and cosy with a great breakfast in the morning. The restaurant provides great lunch and dinner options and I would personally recommend the simply red or Red Devil pizzas! The hotel has a great vibe with classy decor throughout. The Sky bar is a beautiful bar with amazing views of Glasgow. The skyline events are brilliant with great music from world class DJs and the Sky Bar providing amazing atmosphere. If anyone looking a great place to stay I would definitely recommend here.”

“It was easy to find with lots of parking and plenty of green spaces to walk the dog before going in. The reception staff were very kind and helpful and the waiting area is bright airy and very spacious, there are wee individual pods to sit in so nervous/excitable pets have space. I think cats had their own room. The vet/Dr we saw was very kind and thorough and we were kept informed of our dogs progress throughout. Nobody wants to visit the hospital with their pet but if we had to go again it would be reassuring to know it was the UoGSAH we were returning to.”

“I enjoyed the film about Dir William Macewen”

“Had a coffee. A perfect, lovely, delicious coffee. This place has a bathroom in the close next door and the tables are about the size of a large skateboard and the atmosphere is Mom n Pop meets 1920s Cafe, and the smells coming from the kitchen are miraculous... and I had a perfect coffee there.”

“Fantastic place. I came for a study holiday. Comfortable and spacious rooms and apartments. Good food, excellent teachers, friendly and helpful staff. I wonder what more needs to be asked”

“Ben was brilliant on our flight experience even convincing my partner to come along for a quick flight over Loch Loman and she had a lovely time. Thanks very much and I hope to be back maybe next time in the N-registered plane!”

“Fantastic quality work wear, great prices and quick turnaround time. Sonia and the team couldn't be more helpful!”

“Abhinaya is the best institute for Bharatnatyam.. Ester Binu, the teacher is very hardworking, dedicated, excellent and gives each and every student equal and undivided attention. She takes a lot of effort with the girls and it is truly commendable. My daughter is learning since 4 years and I would recommend anyone looking for Bharatnatyam, look no further than Abhinaya! Thank you and we are happy to be a part of this great institution.”

“Razz!!! What a place.My daughter has been going here for 4 years alongside lots of her school friends and they all absolutely love it. Amanda and her staff are brilliant with the kids and make it a place for them to look forward to going to every week”

“Fab place, everyone goes above and beyond for your ponies, staff always friendly and helpful, always a pleasure :)”

“The teachers are all native speakers and are very good teachers. They make the classes interesting. There are some courses which are not just language courses, for example one which I did about France's overseas territories - very interesting but also very good for my language skills.”

“Very well situated campus in the city centre just across the Buchanan bus station and train stations like Queen Street at Central Station a short walk away.”

“A good inclusive place of education, offering diverse courses and supporting students properly.”

“Just spent 11 days in Ayr Hospital and can't praise the staff enough for their expertise over all aspects. Surgery was first class, care and attention in both Critical Care A and Station 2. There are a few staff who went above and beyond to make my stay as comfortable as possible but in general, all staff were kind and caring. Thank you all”

“The care they provided my dog was second to none. And they were also incredibly caring, kind and patient with us. They did their very best to make fees affordable and genuinely seemed to care about us and our dog. Thank you so much to the oncology and surgery team.”

“Just back from an overnight stay. Fab hotel. We were going to concert at the OVO. Great location for it. It is literally round the corner from it. Check in and out was easy and fast. Kathleen was amazing so helpful and friendly. She remembered us in the morning when checking out too which was amazing considering how busy it was. All the staff were so friendly and helpful. We had dinner at the bar and service was quick and meal was fab. Breakfast was great too. Fab Team keeping things running like clock work . Pool, jacuzzi, sauna and steam room great too. We stayed in Room 210. It was quiet and great sized room. Fridge was bonus.”

“Great well rounded university. Excellent facilities. Good clean building and wideranging curriculum qcross a variety of degrees. Also has an adult learning centre”

“This is, without any doubt, the best college in Glasgow. I spent 2 years in the East end campus studying art & design with "Jane's" and I miss them so much. Their approach with the student is really friendly and they know how to make yourself feeling like at home. They gave me a lot of one by one teaching and they always make sure that every student meets their goal as individual. I was also pregnant the first years that I studied in this college and all the staff makes sure that I was comfortable and they were always asking me if I needed any kind of help or support. I would give them 10 stars if I could! They're just the best! If you're thinking of what college to choose, definitely consider this one, I'm 100% sure you're not going to regret it! The only thing is that wasn't an HND course in graphic design or a BA course in graphic so I had to move to another college and this was the worst part or my student journey. Hope they're going to open a new course there soon ❤️”

“The teachers are very supportive of the students and their approach to teaching is commendable. Additionally, the staff members in the college are kind and helpful.”

“I have recently just finished my post graduate degree in Project Management and must commend University Lecturer Irena Spanovic for her support when dealing with any queries relating to my studies - she always went above and beyond in her role and always has the student's best interests at heart. She is a pleasure to deal with and a real asset to UWS.”

“Pretty great hostel for a good quiet night. Rooms are one bed each, allowing for more privacy and quiet than most hostels. Bathrooms are clean, kitchens are well stocked, internet is fast, and it's close to the center of Glasgow. Staff is very friendly. One downside is that it's a bit hard to meet people since there's no real communal room.”
