If you stay in this area, you are surrounded by Neo-Gothic buildings, parks and gardens, artisan eateries, and a wealth of vintage shops. The luxurious Hilton Glasgow Grosvenor hotel is located near the Byres Road where you can explore several chic cafes and shops in the small by-lanes. You can also consider the Argyll Western Hotel which is a small family-run hotel offering traditional Scottish hospitality.
