I recently visited the Soft Play area at Kelvin Hall, and it was a delightful experience for both kids and adults alike! The facility is impeccably designed with vibrant colors and a variety of engaging play structures that cater to children of all ages. From climbing frames to slides, and ball pits to interactive play panels, every corner is filled with opportunities for fun and exploration. nnWhat impressed me the most was the cleanliness and safety of the area. The staff do an excellent job of maintaining a tidy and secure environment, ensuring that parents can relax while their children play. There are also numerous seating areas strategically placed around the play zone, allowing adults to supervise comfortably. nnThe Soft Play area at Kelvin Hall is spacious, allowing plenty of room for children to run around and burn off energy without feeling crowded. The variety of activities available means that children can enjoy hours of entertainment, from physical challenges to imaginative play. ‍nnAdditionally, the staff are friendly and attentive, always ready to assist with any needs or concerns. Their welcoming attitude adds to the overall positive experience, making visitors feel valued and cared for. nnOverall, the Soft Play area at Kelvin Hall is a fantastic destination for families looking for a fun, safe, and engaging place for their children to play. Highly recommended for a day of laughter and adventure!
Not been here for some time and the place has be refurbished since the last time I visited many years ago. The building is of course magnificent. I came here not for the sports but the museum collections.nnHoused in the Kelvin Hall is a collection resulting from a partnership between the National Library of Scotland and other Glasgow museums. Kelvin Hall now provides a shared collections storage facility with public access called the Kevin Hall Open Collection.nnSo now housed in this one building are the National Library's digital and moving image collections, collections from the Hunterian and other Glasgow Museums. Nice place to to spend an afternoon of eclectic museum collections
Probably the only chance to see what was billed as the most complete 67 million year old t rex skeleton in the world, there was lots of interactive exhibits which my daughter enjoyed and there was lots of information about t rex , the entry fee was really steep, I paid £22 for me and my 6 year old daughter, £14 for an adult and £8 for a child, there was no free parking either
Great collection of different subject areas.nReally interesting time at the museum.nThank you.
It is brilliant amazing place sometimes I go there for classes they also have badminton courts
