Staff were so nice and friendly, really accommodating. We dined at the grill- probably one of the best meals we’ve had in Scotland. The beds were really comfy and we had a large room. Really enjoyed our brief stay.

Very, very nice! Very clean. Bed was very comfortable. The restaurant was excellent. Good quality food. We had the lamb chump. It was delicious. The people were very friendly and professional. There were complementary umbrellas by the door which were very convenient. We had complementary ride to the airport by a very nice and friendly driver. Sorry I can’t remember his name. I recommend this hotel.

Largely excellent but very overworked front desk staff - one person for check-in and concierge. Very helpful and friendly but needed to wait 10 minutes to ask a simple question. Well lit rooms but hotel surprisingly dark in hallways. Great shower and bath sheets. Good size bed but very squeaky mattress well past its best before date. Town is quaint but not particularly walkable from hotel.
