"On arrival, staff were welcoming and pleasant. Room was comfy but needing some TLC from maintenance. No towels so had to call down to reception, then later that evening we noticed no toiletries, tea of coffee. Informed reception who said they’d look into it but nothing….not even an apology! Luckily we had our own toiletries and went without hot drink in our room. Food was lovely although items were missing from mine and my husbands meal that were mentioned on the menu. All in all, a pleasant stay but seems like simple things are being missed which would make this stay better. Did not use the spa so unable to comment."

"Reception lady was cheerful and very helpful, explaining the various aspects of our stay with good clarity. The staff in the restaurant were also friendly and helpful, although the "Scots Bar" barman was probably one of the worst I've come across anywhere- not only did we wait to be served for over ten minutes while standing at the bar, he gave no eye contact, had no idea who was next to be served, but instead focused on serving the locals (who were effectively jumping the queue), he disappeared several times and on his return continued to only serve the locals. Anyone who was a guest of the hotel, including me, were ignored unless by some miracle he had no choice but to serve them. To be fair, there probably should have been two people serving in what was a busy bar. We eventually gave up and were served immediately in the main hotel bar without issue. This was the only downside to what otherwise was a very enjoyable stay - it would be unfair to tarnish the hotel because of one individual's complete lack of professionalism"

"Perfect stay, we had a great view from our room so made note of the room number for the future - slightly dated decor, but everything was clean and in perfect working order :)"

"Had issue with room allocation initially at check-in but resolved."
