Top Cove Hotel Reviews

Golden Jubilee Hotel

Golden Jubilee Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Room was very spacious, modern and well maintained. The pool was clean and warm although the changing facilities are a little cramped and could be better for changing a baby in. The bar and restaurant both provided excellent service - food was tasty, came out quickly and staff were very polite and attentive. Parking was fine - managed to get a space relatively quickly mid afternoon (3ish) but was a very full car park due to it being attached to the hospital. Was much emptier after 4.30pm and before 10am. Overall an enjoyable stay, close enough to Glasgow's West end but far enough away that its a bit cheaper than a city centre hotel."
