Excellent. Cannot wait to visit again.
Pros:

Beautiful rooms, comfy beds, lovely staff, excellent spa facilities

Cons:

Nothing about the property or stay is negative in any way however it would be good if people in the spa weren’t allowed mobile phones in such communal spaces, feels a bit strange to be in the background of someone’s video when you’re not fully dressed and trying to relax but that’s a people problem not the Blythswoods.

Superb spa experience with great facilities, afternoon tea a nice addition
Pros:

Visited Blythswood Square for the spa and afternoon tea and overall it was a great experience.

The spa is the standout — really high-end with excellent facilities and a proper luxury feel throughout. Everything is clean, well maintained and very well run, and it’s a great place to relax and unwind.

We also had afternoon tea. The food was very good, but the setting itself felt fairly average compared to the rest of the hotel. It didn’t quite match the same level as the spa experience, but still enjoyable overall.

Staff were friendly and professional throughout.

Superb spa and well worth a visit — afternoon tea a nice addition, even if the setting doesn’t quite match the rest.

State of the room - broken bits of flooring, old fashioned electric heater, windows covered in putty etc. Felt very tired. Shore was a bit blocked.

Great staff and venue for drinks reception
Pros:

The staff here were outstanding. Sep and the team were so progressional and helpful, as we were hosting a reception that day after the fire our numbers were low and the team were so accommodating helping us adapt our setup. I’d really recommend this venue for a drinks reception.
