Freezing cold morning in sunny Scotland
Normally as i have stayed here on numerous occasions it has been really good, this time unfortunately it was a disaster. From being given what could only be described as a box cupboard for a room, no hot water so i had to have a freezing cold shower in the morning to being overcharged for my evening meal, which to be fair they refunded me.
When i complained i just felt they were trying to brush it under the carpet, to a point of i will not be putting this as a first choice of hotel in the future.
What makes it more annoying is that every other time it has been really good but it fell well below what i would expect for a 4 star hotel.
It was welcoming upon arrival, staff were
Friendly, processional and accommodating. Even asked if I needed help with my luggage taken to the room!
Room was great. Modern, clean and comfy.
Went down to restaurant and again all staff were pleasant and nothing was an issue. Food was amazing and not overly priced. I went for the soup and smash burger. Probably one of the best burgers I’ve had.
It’s worth noting that the breakfast was advertised at £22 when booking so declined offer. Arrived and upon check in, breakfast was £12.00?
What could be better was a better TV in room and being able to pay with American Express.

Hotel very basic , breakfast very poor, most of the hot food was cold , had a good selection just not warm enough , staff very friendly and polite
I brought my elderly mum who doesnt handle stairs well. They have a lift but there are still stairs to negotiate. Pool closes early. Looks old and creaky inside.
Nice historic hotel. Would recommend staying in a room in the original building. Felt like they were trying to cut too many corners to be called a spa resort.

Beautiful grounds around hotel. However inside the hotel is very dated and in need of upgrading.
The grounds were beautiful & reception staff were really nice. Room seriously needs updating. Old furniture, carpet & wallpaper coming away from the walls. Room service was great, all except 8 phone calls before anyone answered to take my order. Didnt get a chance to use the facilities, im assuming the pool & sauna etc will be kept to a decent standard. Wouldnt book again unless the rooms were rubbed out & dtarted again.
Some of the staff were not friendly and welcoming. There were black moulds in the room windows and bathroom areas.
The floor was not cleaned and bins not emptied on the second day.
