The Spotlight on Argyll Guest House

Cozy, budget-friendly base near Glasgow's top concert venues

Located just a short stroll from the heart of Glasgow, Argyll Guest House is a warm and welcoming spot perfect for music lovers on the move. Nestled on Sauchiehall Street, it's only a 10-minute walk to the SSE Hydro and even closer to Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum. This guest house offers simple, comfortable ensuite rooms with free Wi-Fi, tea, coffee, and those all-important biscuits. It’s a charming, no-frills option with a touch of Scottish hospitality.

Why Concert-goers love it

This guest house is all about location, location, location. Whether you're heading to a gig at the Hydro or catching a performance at the SEC, you can be there in under 15 minutes on foot—no late-night taxi stress. The area is relatively quiet at night, making it a restful spot to recover post-show. Check-in from 3:00 PM and a check-out time of 11:00 AM gives you enough time to sleep in after a big night.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for an affordable stay near Glasgow's entertainment scene
  • Solo travelers catching a once-in-a-lifetime tour
  • Couples making a weekend of it with live music and local culture
  • Fans who value peace and quiet after a loud night out
  • Budget-conscious music fans who want great value and comfort

Food and Drink Options

Start your day after a late night with a hearty full Scottish breakfast, served buffet-style just across the road. Prefer to stay in? Room service is available for extra convenience. While the guest house doesn’t have a restaurant on-site, you’re just steps from the lively West End with plenty of walkable eateries and pubs to choose from.

Nightlife Options

While there's no on-site bar, the area is full of atmospheric pubs, cool lounges, and local bars—many with live music and late-night service. You're also a short ride or walk from Glasgow city centre's bustling nightlife.

What People Say

Guests often praise the friendly staff, clean rooms, and excellent location for concert events. Many reviews highlight the value for money and the quality of the breakfast as unexpected perks for a budget stay. The quiet surroundings also earn high marks from those looking to unwind.

Areas for Improvement

Rooms are a little basic in décor, and some guests mention that they’re a bit on the smaller side—especially when traveling with lots of gear. Also, because it's a guest house, you won’t find some of the amenities of a larger hotel, like a bar or gym. But for the price and location, most concert-goers find it more than fair.

The Bottom Line

If you're after a budget-friendly, walkable stay near Glasgow’s top venues, Argyll Guest House hits all the right notes.

Great location very close to...

Liked: This is an outstanding location almost right across the street from the university. The guest house and the hotel are right across the street from each other. The hotel has a desk which is handier than you think. Rooms are small but clean. Lots of stairs but we were staying very budget. Student area, so lots of cheap eats but we had some excellent pub food. Eat early if you can, gets very busy later. Lots of music in area too! I would go back!
Disliked: Excellent for the price.

Cheap and cheerful guesthouse in...

Liked: Great location. Short walk to restaurants and bars and the hydro arena, which we were heading to. Room decent and clean. Booked a triple room, and there were 3 comfortable single beds, with 2 pillows on each. Nice decor, with tartan accessories, which was a nice touch. Tea and coffee provided in room. Bathroom with shower over bath. It was clean. Staff friendly. Good value.
Disliked: Hallways looking a bit shabby, and didn’t smell very nice, but room was fine. Breakfast not the best. One vegetarian in our party, and not much stuff for her in the hot food - menu stated vege sausages and potato scones, but there were no sausages and the potato scones were all gone. Meat sausages weren’t very nice, and bacon was quite overcooked. Boiled eggs were freezing. Breakfast was included in our stay, but if I’d paid additionally I wouldn’t have been overly thrilled.
