I arrived in Montrose early evening by train, and got a taxi to this hotel. What a charming and a cosy place to stay in along with great tasting food. The hotel staff working here are quite friendly to chat to… and they also give out good info on the surrounding area as well,…

Don’t stay!!

Absolutely awful hotel. Pretty sure the room wasn’t cleaned prior to us staying as it was disgusting. Breakfast option was awful too. Fruit all mouldy / bruised. Bread for toast but no butter etc even checked on fridge. Tried to complain but no staff around. Was advised by other guests no staff around until late afternoon. Awful. Don’t stay.

Pretty rough!

Really dated, run down place...right opposite a busy train line (commuter in the daytime and cargo during the night) Small room with thin walls, massive window with no soundproofing combined with paper thin curtains meant a terrible night's sleep.

Very helpful staff ,hotel is very dated , furniture looks like from 1980s thrift shop ,didn't risk the breakfast in the morning either The establishment is currently for sale ,I think a bulldozer would be a better option than a buyer

Not a hotel.

I arrived at 8pm and was told by the the receptionist that the kitchen had just closed, I was given a room on the top floor which was the size of a prison cell. The bed in the room was a childs bed. very narrow and when I went to bed my feet were out the bottom and I am only 5ft 10 tall. I came down stairs to go out and get some food that there is never and food available and they normally order and have it delivered. There was no heating in the room.About 7.45am in the morning I went down for breakfast, only to find the place in darkness. I could not find a light switch for the dining room and there was no one around to ask. There was a note on the door to say , On your way out lock the door and put your key in the letterbox.

The abandoned hotel!

Hopeless in terms of check in. Nobody there and waited outside for nearly an hour. Breakfast was a joke. Again building abandoned. Some bread, cereal, milk and a kettle to fend for yourself. Wouldn’t have minded but we were told there would be someone there! I’m sure it’s a staffing issue but the ad is very misleading. Rooms were clean (apart from the shower) and it is a quiet place.

Bit basic. Clean and comfortable though.

The room was comfortable enough and had all facilities youd except. Breakfast is a bit of palaver. Help yourself to cereals. Boil the kettle to make coffee once you find the bottled water. Then unplug the kettle to plug in toaster. Some lighting would of also been helpful in the dining area.

Bed for the night

The food was good in the bar for dinner. Staff were lovely. Mattress was hard/perished, could feel the springs and squeaky. Bathroom needs refreshed. Breakfast in bag was awful. Tangerine, belvita biscuit, stale pastry and carton of orange juice.
