A unique Scottish hotel that is in the process of being renovated. Food was good and staff friendly, though reception appeared to be unstaffed. My room was one of the older ones so the renovation will be a big benefit but overall the hotel was great value and much better than an anonymous generic chain hotel.

I have stayed here several times, but always in a renovated room, so first time in an unrenovated one, it is dated but serviceable and good value. Great friendly staff and service is good. Food is good value.

Nice, spacious room with large en-suite. Freshly decorated and refurbished. Only small issue was a quibble over the breakfast, which had been booked with Hotels.com, but the Hotelier disputed. They honoured it when proof of booking was shown, but it did sour things a little. Otherwise it was a nice Hotel and we would stay again. Limited Hotel Parking, but plenty of free public parking around back.

There was a room description error on Expedia's website, which the hotel staff were very quick to resolve at their own expense in a very professional manner. The staff were friendly and helpful. Hotel was clean and rooms were generously sized. Lovely breakfast. Would definitely stay again.

Room was adequate, bathroom very tight but bed comfortable. Meal in evening very good and service good. Breakfast was poor as order was not delivered & when waitress advised rather than offer apologies and then got what was ordered she was very abrupt, sharp and told me I was wrong.

we stayed two nights with our dog. Room was ok and the overall experience was ok. The breakfast was decent quality. What was lacking was knowledge and personal care from all the staff. They did not treat us as customers. We had to ask for things and chase up for breakfast order. When we asked questions on the menu like, what is todays soup of the day, the person had to go to find out. If you get a good deal then it is what it is.

Ok place

5 minute walk from car park not ideal. Many items missing from the menu. Restaurant closed, so we were seated in bar area. Room ok, but dated. Shower like an old Mira type, more a drizzle than a flow. Really good breakfast. Manager, Ryan Lloyd, receptive and eager to please

One night stay

The room was refurbished well. We were unfortunate with our timing because there was a disco until late and we could not sleep initially. The hotel was busy with the wedding guests and so we could not eat there. Also, we were in the room above the kitchens and the air conditioning units were left on late into the night so we could not open the window due to the noise from them. Perhaps they could be switched off earlier? Bed had no support from springs and mattress needed replacing. Breakfast was a very good cooked scottish breakfast - good quality ingredients. Staff were very friendly and helpful.
