Hotel & Accommodation
A prestigious address since the early 19th century, The Kimpton Blythswood Square Hotel overlooks a beautiful private garden square. A five-star hotel in Glasgow City Centre, it has 113 rooms and resides in a building which was once the Clubhouse for The Royal Scottish Automobile Club (RSAC). From a geographical perspective, it sits pretty much at the centre point of the city.
The hotel’s restaurant and cocktail bar is in the former ballroom of the RSAC, and provides a relaxed but nonetheless refined atmosphere serving a seasonal menu of locally sourced produce. The Salon on the other hand is a 35-metre lounge area on the first floor, characterised by comfy sofas where teas, drinks and afternoon tea are served.

From my arrival the reception staff were helpful, polite and friendly. I chose to have a cappuccino before going down to the spa which staff accommodated for me and couldn’t have been more helpful. I was shown round the facilities in the spa a given 2 fluffy robes and 3 towels which I did not think I would need but in fact it was most helpful to have a second robe to put on before going for my treatments. I made good use of all of the different experiences that the spa had on offer and as the day went on my highly stressed mind and body relaxed more than I could have imagined. My therapist Rachel was wonderful and talented at both the massage and facial treatments so much so that I dropped off to sleep during both treatments. Lunch was lovely and I enjoyed a glass of Prosecco with my meal. I was impressed by just how lovely all of the staff were and they could not have done more to make my spa day experience any more enjoyable. I will definitely make this city retreat a regular treat to myself but maybe have an over night stay to make the experience even more luxurious. It truly was a wonderful pampering day. Thanks to all the Kimpton Spa staff x
Really enjoyed our experience, took my mum for her birthday and she really enjoyed it. My only problem was with the price, I paid £150 for skin scrub and mud mask and although it included use of the facilities I feel like it should have included a treatment of some kind
The staff were very kind and helpful
Spa breaks great for booking with always pleasant and helpful. Unfortunately I cannot day the same for The Spa at The Principal Blythswood. It was totally disorganised and seriously in need of a make over. One person didn’t know what the other was doing. The treatments and therapists were superb. Disappointed in the “thermal experience”. There were 4 of us booked for the Indulgence Package totalling £580. Afternoon tea was booked for 2.30. We were told to go back to the rest room as they weren’t ready for us. After 20mins Cameron came for us. Menus given out and another 15mins past! He came back for our order of 4 afternoon teas and at the end of 30mins I asked how much longer we needed to wait. Eventually food came but no tea or coffee. We had already eaten our sandwiches before it arrived. I have to say we were thorough disgusted by the whole experience. Not worth the money and definitely not worthy of five star quality. Total waste of money.
