Enjoyed our stay, it was our fourth visit. Location is good, especially for access to the city by car. Staff work hard and are friendly. Food is to a high standard and breakfast is delicious and plentiful. Some of the furniture needs re-covered or updated. The cleanliness is not up to the same high standard it was previously. Main areas are cleaned but not aroubd the edges or ceilings, plenty cobwebs. Hoping to return again

Check in slow as only 1 member of staff on. TV not working - eventually got moved to another room. In new room windows would not close! Heating made a noise. Key card failed to allow me entry to my room. On leaving receptionist wanted £39 for room service which I never ordered (I didnt even know they did room service as there is no menu on details in the room!) It looks grand externally but on the inside the walls and carpets are marked and seats in the reception area were damaged.

Chilled out at Ardoe House (Hotel&Spa)
We came here for a much needed “chill” break. It was just perfect. We had a privilege room with a king size bed. It was very spacious, clean, well equipped and comfortable. The pool, sauna, steam room and spa areas are immaculate. All of the staff are very polite, courteous, extremely helpful and friendly. There was a great selection of food at breakfast and both restaurants in the hotel offer a very high standard of food. We would highly recommend staying and eating in this hotel, we will certainly be back. Karen & David (Room 138) Cumbernauld

Not worth the money
Attended a wedding at the beginning of October and booked to stay the night. When i contacted the hotel to book with the wedding discount code, noone could tell us the price with the discount, i ended up booking on a different booking app.On checking in to our room it appeared ok.After the wedding meal which was poor, part of the meal was missing and it was cold. We went back to the room for my wife to get her medication only to discover none of the lights were working. after 3 attempts to contact reception someone came to the room and said they would try to find us another room. After waiting for about 30 minutes she came back to tell us we had a room on another floor. There was no offer of help to get our stuff together in the dark and move rooms. The new room was dirty, cobwebs in the bedroom,windowsills paint coming off and bathroom mould on the tiles around shower. Cost of drinks extertionate £13.95 for a small glass of white wine !! Only 1 person serving at bar who had to keep going to another bar for drinks and change and glassess. When there is an event on surely you would make sure there is enough staff on bar and bar is stocked with drinks,glassess and change. Breakfast was ok. I would not be recommending this hotel it is in need of a makeover.

Nice hotel but needs a lick of paint in corridors!
The room was not part of the original granite building. Some doors in the corridors were totally battered and desperately in need of fresh paint. Room itself was nice and bathroom was new. Great cleaning staff.

Room very inaccurate compared to description.
Well, despite the advert stating that the "Executive room" booking had "2 bedrooms' and could sleep 3 people, there was only the one king size bed. Quite how that could accommodate 3 people, i could not understand. Perhaps if you were a broad minded "thruple'..? Anyways, this room was for my son and i. We questioned this on the night and the receptionist said she'd "never seen that ad", despite it being prominent and stated many times on the hotels.com website. However she stated that they would make our beds into twin beds the next day. This turned out to be a false promise as zero was done about this the next day. Also there was no remote control for the television. Again i asked about this at the reception and the less than cheerful lady gave me one which turned out not to work. So we had to make do with the 1980s style of working the telly by the buttons on the telly itself. Overall the room was fairly comfortable, but very inaccurate compared to the hotels.com website. Plus the total disinterest and lack of help from reception was not ideal.

Mixed views but lovely hotel
Check in was very poor. Had to wait for receptionist to send a message on her mobile (although she did apologise) but our main issue was that we were given no directions to our room….and got lost! Check out was marginally better but staff could have been more engaging. It doesn’t take much to ask you how your stay was or wish you a safe journey and thank you for staying. Room was excellent. Very comfortable and well furnished. Staff we met in the corridors always spoke and were helpful. Big plus was the Leisure Club. Lovely pool with jacuzzi, steam room and sauna (although steam room wasn’t working when we were there!). Very friendly and helpful staff. Dining in the hotel was mixed. We used Soapie’s which offered a good choice of well priced meals. Settee was badly ripped but otherwise good environment. It was hard to tell whether some of the staff were guests as they seemed more interested in chatting to friends. However as the evening wore on I thought they got better and were more attentive. Food was a good quality and served quickly. Hotel is set in lovely grounds and is well situated for touring the area. Be aware that you have to go outside the main building to reach the leisure club.
