Independent pet-friendly review by Four Legged Guests · updated October 2026 · paw rating built from 1 verified guest review mentioning pets
Bring your dog if
- You're happy with a standard hotel-room stay where the property explicitly welcomes dogs
- You're basing yourself in Glasgow / the Scotland and want a pet-friendly anchor for day trips
- Pet-mentioning reviewers spoke positively about the dog-friendly setup
Worth knowing
- Paw rating sits on a single confirmed pet review - expect movement as more data arrives
- Pet fee and any size restrictions aren't published - confirm directly with the property before booking
- Shared corridors and common areas mean nervous or vocal dogs may find it harder to settle
How this review was built Evidence, sources, refresh cadence
- Evidence: 1 pet-mention guest review sourced from major booking platforms - guests who explicitly mentioned travelling with a dog. Each review is screened for pet-relevance, then judged for sentiment to compute the paw rating.
- Not a personal visit. We don't stay at every hotel we cover - we summarise patterns from real guest reviews, paraphrased and never quoted verbatim. Full standard on our editorial policy page.
- Wider context: The property has 1,065 guest reviews overall across booking platforms, averaging 8.3/10 - the paw rating reflects only the pet-mentioning subset.
- Last refreshed: October 2026. Policies and pricing drift; we re-check on a rolling basis. Confirm specifics with the property at the moment you book.
- How the paw rating works: Full detail on the methodology page, including the three verification gates and known limitations.
Pet policy at a glance
- Dogs are specifically listed as allowed (not all pet-friendly hotels include cats - check directly if travelling with a non-canine pet).
- A pet fee may apply - the property's booking listing flags an extra charge for pets. Contact the hotel for the current amount.
Pet-friendly summary
The Crookston is a long-standing hotel on Crookston Road in Cardonald, on the south-west side of Glasgow, and it treats its dog welcome as a selling point rather than a concession. Dogs are specifically listed as allowed, which is worth more than a vague pet-friendly badge if you are travelling with a non-canine pet and need to check.
A pet charge is flagged on the property's booking listing, but no amount is published, so agree it when you book. There are no dedicated pet facilities advertised, and dog-specific feedback is still thin here, so treat it as a hotel that accommodates dogs willingly rather than one built around them.
What guests consistently praise is the staff. Reception and porters come up repeatedly as quick to fix problems and unfailingly polite, which matters more than it sounds when you are checking in with a dog and need a ground-floor room or a quiet corner. The kitchen also earns steady praise, with breakfast a common highlight.
The location suits a car-free trip. Crookston railway station is a short walk and the run into Glasgow Central is only a few stops, so you can leave the car at the hotel and take the train in rather than hunting for city-centre parking with a dog in the back. The surrounding streets are residential and quiet, which makes late and early walks straightforward.
The honest caveat is noise. Sound carries here: guests report doors slamming in the corridors, plant noise outside some windows, and at least one guest kept awake by a dog barking in a neighbouring room. Dogs clearly do stay, but a dog that reacts to corridor noise may not settle, and a dog that barks when left will be heard.
Best suited to dog owners using Glasgow as a base who want easy rail access and a quiet residential setting, and who do not need dedicated pet facilities. It earns a 4.5/5 paw rating.
