The water stopped working on the final night, although it apparently got fixed. I woke up this morning to it not working at all. Was unable to have a shower. When checking out I tried to let the staff know but I waited for 20 minutes at the desk rang the bell multiple times and no one came. So I had to just leave the key and and was not given an opportunity to make them aware and request a partial refund.

Excellent stay, would recommend
Lovely, comfortable stay in a large room which suited us having 2 dogs with us. Staff excellent, super friendly and accommodating. Hotel is comfortable and cozy and is a very old building which the owners are continuing to upgrade. Beautifully spacious and high ceilings with many period features. Breakfast was great too. Will definitely be back.

Disappointed
Oh dear. Judging by the photos shown here on “Hotels”, I must have stayed at another hotel by the same name. On the plus side, I found the manager extremely helpful, and the other staff I met, friendly and helpful too. I’m very thankful to management for including breakfasts for the 2 night stay as recompense of issues raised during my stay. I think the owners were trying to make a good go of the business, but local government charges and business fees have had an impact on them, and progress has stopped or slowed right down. This was not the hotel I expected to stay in, going by the photos and some reviews. Would I return, not likely at this time. Perhaps after many upgrades to the building and its fabric, I may consider it.

Dissapointed!
We've stayed here a number of times over the years and put up with the state of it as the owner was doing it up as it close to the HD rally site. This year we got a room at the top and although it had been renovated in the past it was terrible, torn wall paper, no tv reception, no towel rail, no toilet holder and the worst thing was my wife nearly got scolded with the shower. The lovely views are obscured by paint stains and cobwebs. The pigeons are obviously roosting in the part of the building that is blocked off. From the outside all the window frames are rotted away. There is major rot to the structural woodwork on the beams over the front so much so that most of it is missing. We told pur concerns on leaving and at least they removed our breakfast charge but we wont be back as it needs major overhaul before it even comes up to a decent standard.

Really friendly, helpful staff. The hotel was right across the road from the car ferry to Gourock, which was the reason we chose it. An old-fashioned, impressive building - but be aware that there is no lift to the upper floors. We had a nice seaview room, and the beds were comfy. Check-in/out was easy too.
