Hotel was lovely and staff were very helpful. Only slight negative was bathroom being slightly dated and shower control proving difficult to turn off, i.e., water continued to drip.

this is an amazing hotel. the car parking is very convenient. both the breakfast and dinner in the hotel is great. the location is very convenient to go to the stirling castle. also, i really enjoyed the staff, they were very friendly and courteous. it's a bit of a walk to the wallace memorial, but well worth it if one is able to go on foot.

We really liked this place. The staff were professional and courteous. There was a small lap pool for swimming which was great. It is a perfect location for checking out the Sterling Castle. Her only complaint is that they have a machine dispensing coffee for breakfast the breakfast otherwise was delicious with haggis offered as well as other things like eggs and sauce. I would definitely stay here again, but I hope they make real coffee in the future!

Nice hotel in a good position. Lovely staff. Room was fine. Good value for money. Unfortunately the lift was out of order. The dinner menu was sufficient but a bit underwhelming for a hotel of this calibre.

Not a modern hotel and the only heating in the room was a portable heater. We were told the main heating system was on a timer, but that did not happen. Staff was very friendly. The dining area was very busy with bus tours. Great location close to Castle.
