Welcome to Edinburgh City hotel
 ‘Glasgow’s Alive’ - in fact a gross understatement of a city which has seen a remarkable transfor mation over the last 20 years or so into one of the most vibrant, welcoming, characterful, cosmopolitan cities in Western Europe.
The Pond Hotel in Glasgow is ideally situated less than two miles from Glasgow's bustling city centre in its cosmopolitan, fashionable and stylish west end. From our superb position on Great Western Road you are a short drive, bus or taxi ride of the city centre, its wonderful shopping, great theatres and the Glasgow Royal Concert Hall (GRCH) - and its world class Gallery of Modern Art - and within walking distance of the west end, home of the Kelvingrove Art Gallery – and of a world class University and world class nightlife too!.
A very short walk from the hotel takes you to the pavement cafes, pubs and restaurants of the West End and the Byres Road area, vibrant, throbbing, chic, full of life and a fantastic venue for a night out. Alternatively take a short taxi ride to the city centre for some real Glasgow culture. The city is home to the renowned Scottish Ballet, boasts a magnificent range of entertainment venues, including the quite outstanding recently rebuilt Royal Concert Hall, and not least is deservedly proud of its wonderful awards as European City of Culture in 1990 and UK City of Architecture in 1999.
Sit back and enjoy the short city guide we have prepared for you, which follows.
