    The hotel and room was great. The food didn’t quite live up to the surroundings and was over priced for what it was. Also the bar was closed when we arrived at 11:30pm even though a 1am closing was advertised. But Very pleasant and helpful staff. Overall, a great stay.

    It was a great experience for us as a family. The place was great to stay with family. Rooms and other services were excellent.

    A little far from city center, if you don’t have car, it might take longer time if want to visit city center.

    Nice building and room, very comfortable bed. The golf courses are beautiful.

    The restaurant food was terrible, the reception staff was very unkind. We were sent a message that if our room was available before check in we could get our keys otherwise if we wanted to guarantee a room we had to pay. When we arrived a bit earlier they said our room was ready but we still couldn’t check in unless we paid extra. I do not like being told one thing and then something else is done. Also they were very unkind, and snobby. Not even acknowledging us when we walked it.

    The grounds are stunning, the wildlife is beautiful and the building itself is lovely. The location is not too far from the city, only a quick and easy 25 minutes on the bus.

    Rooms average; no a/c; small beds (superior room); instant coffee, no machine; some flaws in bathroom (no brush, handle toilet weak) bar above swimming average: 3 burned pizza's; swimming pool nice, but some times too busy (around 20 in pool), no changing rooms; coffee in restaurant for bf is bad, tea in Scotland is always from cup? No nice presentation with e.g. tea pot, real tea? For this price a bummer

    Staff didn’t explain on how breakfast service was run or where ie like which location in hotel. Hotel is very large and was like a Rabbits hole corridors, lifts and stairs everywhere.

    Leisure facilities were amazing. Lovely decor throughout the hotel and amazing location

    The bed were « okay » but not that comfy The breakfast I was very disappointed, first the service is terrible, secondly, nothing was homemade (croissant, cake, muffin… etc). Not even simple thing like fresh orange juice, local cheese, local jam. For a 4stars standing it is a shame. The service was awful. When we arrive there was a lot of food from the rooms in the corridor, when we left one day later, nothing left from their places. The restaurants of the hotel had a terrible services (wrong dish, wrong drinks, never giving water, not taking of the plate correctly…) The toilet were making a huge sound, we asked for it to be repair but it kept doing a small sound that making you not sleep… Isolation was so so

    The rooms were very clean The breakfast had a lot of variety. The size of the room was big The staff was very nice The location was wonderful, in the middle of 400ha of golf, trees, garden, a beautiful property. The view of the bedroom was beautiful, on a private garden, the decoration of the room was old but okay.

    Walls are paper thin and we could hear the baby next door crying. You’d have thought it was in our room.😳

    Rooms didn’t live up to expectation, breakfast on 2 days short staffed and not great

    The grounds were lovely! The rooms were pretty standard not to much like to pictures and the building shown on only the very front of the hotel it’s actually all extended/not original

    Room service menu was quite limited. The whisky selection wasn’t the best in the Braids Bar. Minor things.

    Bed was huge and very comfortable. There was plenty parking, the beer was well kept and the food was excellent. The staff were excellent and the hotel had excellent facilities and great wi-fi.
