Fairly basic but nice enough room. Lot of noise from functions suite on Saturday night but did stop before midnight - not so good if you have children. Some problems getting our room key to work. Unusually small TV. However, pleasant enough for the money and would stay again.

Gilvenbank needs a good clean

The staff were pleasant however our room need a good clean. The carpet obviously had not been vacuumed for quite some time. The edges were full of thick dust with remnants of previous customers over the main areas. The fan in the bathroom was disgusting. I have taken photos and will be contacting the hotel management direct. hame as we had stayed there at a family celebration 10 years previously and it was very clean then.

Hotel is in a very dated & tired condition. Decor hasn’t been updated in years. Our bedroom had stained carpet and broken lampshade. Bed mattress very soft giving impression it needed to be replaced. Bathroom very basic. Shower over bath which leaked onto bathroom floor, consequently bottom of door warped. Toilet seat not attached properly. Staff were pleasant and helpful.
