This property is tired, the mattress was shaped like a W. Location was good, easy walk to everything. Thankfully we only had one night here, the bed was terrible.

Lovely old style hotel. We were fortunate to receive an upgrade to a bigger/better room on our arrival, which made our experience even better. Staff were really friendly and hard working. Only a couple of minor flaws stopped me rating the hotel 5 stars :- WiFi - was good in the reception/lounge area , but was poor/non-existent in the bedrooms (or at least in the room we were in. Breakfast - cereal, tea /coffee , fruit etc were good , but I was a little disappointed in the buffet style cooked items - black pudding was dry , haggis was a bit pale and fatty, sausages weren't great, and potato scones were bland. ( I'm usually quite the fan of a cooked breakfast) . Bacon, mushrooms, beans, eggs (scrambled/fried) were nice however

Liked: Staff & service
I stayed in the hotel for a business meeting the next day. I wanted to be fresh and ready, so decided to pay the £120 for a room for the night. Unfortunately, the mattress I had made it almost impossible to get comforatble and sleep, meaning I almost spent the whole night awake. Poor show.

Old world charm

Lovely little traditional family hotel with many historic features. Lovely and quiet at night and extrememy clean. Nothing was too much trouble for the great staff, especially our breakfast server. What a lovely character and a real asset to the hotel.

Just a one night stay on our way up north . It’s an old building so no lift but full of character . I’m the carers for my brother who is traveling with me & the hotel made sure that we had rooms next to each other . The rooms are ok , comfortable beds , nice ensuite bathroom but obviously as it’s an older building they aren’t like a travel inn. The breakfast was excellent & as a vegan the staff went out if their way to make sure that I had a good breakfast that I could eat . My brother thoroughly enjoyed his full Scottish breakfast. Amy , in reception , deserves a special mention as she sorted our rooms for us & carried my heavy suitcase up to the first floor for me bless her ! Would certainly stay here again .
