Found this little gem whilst looking for a stopover hotel traveling from Winchester to the Highlands. Fabulous hotel, friendly staff,good food and friendly service. Rooms are well presented, also we were traveling with a dog so good to find a dog friendly hotel. If we ever come back this way we will look at stopping here.

Stay was great. Staff were very accommodating and friendly. Having mobility issues they didn’t have lifts etc so for wheelchair access it’s not suitable but they did have a banister/handrail on the stairs and everything on the ground floor (restaurant and bar) was all on the same level and the main entrance is level too for easy access. The staff did help with bags to the room. I’m unsure if this is standard or because they knew I had difficulties. Overall we were thoroughly impressed

I had stayed in 2021 and thought the room decor was quite tired; I don't think that's changed really, although I appreciated having both an iron and an ironing board. Some Glasgow hotels I could mention expect you to collect said items from reception and get them in a lift yourself. While the restaurant- bar area is very modern, I think the food was quite pricey but attractively presented. While I slept very well, my only real complaint was my room was quite cold in the morning. However, the staff were all excellent- approachable, friendly and attentive. I would definitely stay again when visiting the town.

Positives - Easy parking and check in, welcoming informative staff, room was spacious, quiet and comfortable. Negatives - no lift, a maze of corridors to access our room, creaky floorboards, our meals in restaurant were well below par and expensive. On balance the positives outweighed the negatives.

The staff were good. The restaurant was modern & clean. The evening meal and the breakfast, in the restaurant, were good. The condition of the hotel (hallway, stairs and room) was poor. Needs to have a good clean and refresh. The hotel has the potential to be really good.

I've used this hotel several times over recent years and it is on a downward trajectory. The worst part was the toilets adjacent to the dining and bar area, they were truly revolting, what one might expect at a busy football stadium rather than a quiet hotel on a Bank Holiday weekend! No excuse for that! Most of the staff are very friendly and helpful but one rather slow barmaid let me sit in an empty bar for over fifteen minutes before realising I wanted to order food. Chipped paint, bathroom towels with holes and grubby carpets paint a picture of slow decline... I won't be back!

Single traveller, using the hotel as a half way stop during a long journey. Stayed just for one night. The staff, from the reception to the restaurant were absolutely fantastic. Knew my name and used it, I felt like their most important customer, even though the hotel/restaurant seemed busy. Hotel is clean and comfortable, room (8) is small but perfect for one person unless you really want to spread out or perhaps are staying a bit longer. Some of the pipework looks a bit "vintage" but to be honest all this does is to add to the overall comfortable charm of the place. Food in the restaurant was excellent. Would happily stay here again and would recommend this hotel to others.
