Old and tired

The hotel is old and tired, and really needs complete renovation. The carpets are threadbare, the bed sagged, the white plastic shower tap and extractor fan had gone yellow with age, the bathroom mirror was losing its silver backing, and the furniture was chipped and worn. There were no usable sockets near the bed - only old-style round pin lighting sockets. On Saturday night you couldnt see the bar for all the dirty glasses, and tables were left uncleared for hours: just not enough staff to cope. We ate in the restaurant on Saturday night: the food was ok, but somewhat uninspiring, and expensive for what it was. Thirty years ago, this would have been a nice hotel, but it really needs a rethink.

This place was terrible. The bed had human dents in it and was not actually a king mattress but two singles put together. Not to mention it was older than myself I'd wager. The sheets and pillow cases were dirty and we asked that they were changed. That took nearly two hours. There was no hot tub as was advertised which may seem trivial, but after two weeks of hiking Scotland were looking forward to soaking in a hot tub as was advertised. The hotel is dated, and I mean dated. It felt like it may have been 4 stars in the 1970s, but this was no 4 star hotel. The only redeeming quality of the stay was the front desk staff who were incredibly kind and did everything they could to make a horrible experience not so bad. We booked two nights and cancelled the second after hurting my back trying to sleep in the destroyed mattress. Unfortunately all I saw the staff doing was apologizing for the experience of the hotel. Overall, Don't stay here. You can find far better for less money.

Down Grade not an upgrade

I arrived at 16.30 to be given a twin room when I had paid for a Double. I was told house keeping would change this to a double so I said I would go for something to eat while this is done. On my return this still hadn't been done. The receptionist said she would ask house keeping to do it straight away. At 19.30 I asked again how much longer, only to be told this couldn't be changed to a double. I was then offered another double which could have been done at 16.30 when I checked in not 3 hours later. Very poor.

The property is very dated actually and the room was not particularly appealing, albeit the mattress was comfortable, the whole place just looking a bit rundown and in need of some TLC especially around the tennis courts and the carpark / delivery area. The service in the restaurant was absolutely woeful; I don't think I've ever experienced worse table service anywhere. Just inexperience I guess and no leadership whatsoever. Disappointed with our stay.

What a fantastic place! The staff could not have been more kind and helpful! We arrived late back to the hotel after sightseeing only to find that the restaurant had already closed. They happily fixed us up a couple of sandwich plates. All the food we had here was exceptional. The pool and saunas were very nice and clean. A great treat after a long travel day.
