Whilst the older part of the hotel needs a little refreshing the newer rooms were beautiful and very contemporary. As a mixed family group we got to see all aspects. no one had any complaints as every possible request was catered for including awkward diet of both young, older and elderly. The breakfasts were amazing and the older twin room... More

Staff here are very welcoming and friendly, nothing a problem. My room was very clean and comfortable, bit a wee bit cold, but there was an extra heater which soon warmed the room up. I had a meal in the bar where the staff were very good and the food excellent, great selection of drinks at the bar if you... More

My parents, my husband and I stayed here on Saturday 17 September as we were attending a family function in the hotel. We had read the reviews before booking and were a bit wary but we all found the opposite. Check in was smooth and friendly, rooms were modern and clean. My parents had a twin room and their room...

My wife and I stayed here whilst on our vacation around Scotland. We stayed here for 2 nights. The surrounding areas is very beautiful and we thoroughly enjoyed our walks by the rivers. The hotel however was very dated. There were a few holes around the curtain area in our room, the window was jammed open and the room very... More

Stay was ok. The food was very reasonable. Bed was comfortable enough & I slept well. Cleanliness could not be faulted. The staff were polite and courteous. Parking was a bit of a problem. Free wifi with good connection speed. My only gripe is the place is very dated. Definitely not the best; Best Western I have stayed in. It... More

Read the reviews and thought "this isn't going to be good", but how wrong they were. The room I had was contemporary in style and was what I would expect from a building of this age. It was clean, well stocked with toiletries and a beverage tray, more available from reception. There were a couple of minor problems with the... More

We stopped here for a meal on Sunday 24th July 2011. The service was excellent, the food was very good, and the price was very reasonable. Would recommend this for a meal, in fact we will definately come here again when in the area. We did not stay in the hotel so we cannot comment on the rooms but the... More

We were enjoying a great dinner when we noticed about fifty people aged from 8 to 80 entering the hotel carrying violins . On enquiry our hostess Jacqui Melvin told us it was "fiddle practice night " and offered to serve our coffee at the back of the function room where it was being held . It was great experience...
