A great hotel.

The staff were very friendly and attentive. The hotel was very comfortable with large clean rooms. We were in a dog friendly room as were a lot of the guests. The hotel is handy for walking around Rothesay Main Street.

We booked a twin ensuite room at this hotel. The room was clean and the beds a good size. Our ensuite was accessed via three stairs. The bathroom facilities were basic but clean. We ate our evening meal in the hotel bar area (same food as dining room). The food was attractively presented and delicious. Reasonably priced. Service was good. Breakfast was buffet style with plenty of choice

It’s an impressive property but it’s need of updating and repairs. It seems that some updating has been done but it’s still a work in progress. I have mixed feelings about the staff at reception. I dealt with a gentleman at check in and he was very friendly, helpful and clearly understands good customer service. I can’t say the same about his female colleague. She clearly does not like her job and does not understand good customer service. I went to enquire about extending my stay by another night and she cut me off without letting me finish my sentence. I found her to be quite ignorant. It was almost like she was on a power trip. I declined the opportunity to stay an extra night and booked a room in another hotel.
