    We couldn't dine on 23 April (restaurant was closed) nor 29th (large party). Not a problem as there were excellent restaurants in the area.

    Excellent breakfast with a good choice of menu and cereals. A dram of malt whisky on arrival was a first !

    I needed to be away early. Breakfast starts at 8am which would have been ok but unfortunately the staff member with the key to the kitchen had slept in and I couldn't wait until breakfast was served a little later.

    Located in a quiet but central location in the city centre. A good size room and the welcome dram on arrival was warmly received!

    Amazing stay. All the staff were excellent and attentive. Special thanks to Sam for being such a gent and helping me with my suitcases when I arrived. The room and bathroom were clean. Great toiletries and other nice touches like the bottled water. The bed was very comfortable and the pillows are heavenly (I travel are lot and these are the best ever). The breakfast was amazing too. For a tired traveller after a long journey this was just the perfect stay to rest and refresh. Thank you .

    This was largely because I missed the detail on the info outside, so I cant say the info wasnt provided - I booked for dinner at 7pm, but staff didnt point out that set meal menu ends at 6.45 - frustrating when we could have been there just that bit earlier. BUT never mind because when I explained it was the risotto (not on al la Carte menu) I was after the chef made it for me anyway.

    Friendly, available staff who gave us all the info we asked for and extra interesting bits we wouldn't have thought of asking for. Very clear it's not 24 hour reception, but that was no bother as there is plenty of info provided around the hotel. Great breakfast and service.

    Nothing. If you had very heavy bags and were on top floor there’s no lift but , tho we didn’t need it we were offered help with bags.

    Super helpful staff, good location next to very interesting little museum about the history of piping. Very comfortable v large bed. Small hotel but perfect base and v friendly.

    Water pressure was a bit low. 8am breakfast start made it difficult to make a 8:45 meeting without getting a taxi.

    The location and quality of the hotel for the price were very good. Excellent breakfast. Friendly staff.

    Really didn’t have any problems. Seriously only thing I can think of was the seriously creaky floor in our room. Luckily no one was under us.

    The hotel was great and we especially loved the location an easy walk to the train station, food, and shopping. The room was fairly large with a comfortable king sized bed, a wardrobe, chair, desk with chair and coffee/tea service. A nice en suite bathroom with lovely shower. The best part was the friendly staff and the great breakfast service which we had with our room rate. It was served down in the pub where you could order anything off the menu or continental. They would also reserve a table for you for dinner if you wanted it. We also enjoyed the small bagpipe museum next door where the staff answered all our questions about piping.
