Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The Craiglynne Hotel has a lovely exterior and attractive grounds, which gave us a positive first impression. Unfortunately, the inside of the hotel did not live up to that impression. The property felt tired and not particularly well maintained. My room had extremely squeaky floors, and I could clearly hear movement from neighboring rooms, making it difficult to relax. My mother-in-law’s room had a broken shower door, and after we left, she mentioned that her bed sheets appeared dirty. Unfortunately, she didn’t bring it to the staff’s attention during our stay, so the issue was never addressed. The hotel was also hosting several large tour buses during our visit. While that’s not necessarily a problem, the common areas were often crowded and noisy, which affected the overall atmosphere. On the positive side, breakfast was decent, and dinner was acceptable, though neither stood out as particularly memorable. Overall, the hotel has potential because of its location and attractive grounds, but the condition of the rooms, cleanliness concerns, and maintenance issues left us disappointed.

Room was very clean. Needed refurbished. Shower was a trickle and difficult to get the right temperature. Only one window in the room opened. No fan in bathroom. Bed very comfortable. Lovely places to eat nearby. (We did not eat in hotel) Ben Mhor hotel, Grant arms, The Wee Puffin and The Garth Hotel. Parking was interesting with no real car park but wasn't too busy so managed to find a space.

The staff, and especially Aaron at reception were very friendly and helpful. The lobby, bar and dining areas were pleasant and nicely set up. Our room was clean but a little tired-looking and required electrical maintenance, including repairing the fan in the bathroom.
