Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort
Hotel has so much potential its a shame that there has not been more attention to detail. Staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming but bar was closed at 10pm on a Saturday night and i was unable to gain access to wine glasses or bottle openers for the room. Breakfast was barley warm and service was slow in being seated. Room was beautiful and overall we really enjoyed our stay.

Great location
Interior a bit tired looking but clean and comfortable. Lovely view from room and lounge/dining room balcony. Paid £5 for parking but hotel advised free parking when we got there. Limited evening meal menu. Central location. Would stay there again.

We feel fortunate to have stayed at this historic hotel. There are certainly cosmetic improvements to be made to the property but our room was easily 3star lovely and the view spectacular. Breakfast was good. The hotel shutdown for 2 years due to covid and we’re grateful it reopened.

Great views
Impressive building in great location with great views. You can still see the grandness of it but slightly outdated decor now. Cosy restaurant and porch with sea views. Lots of breakfast choices. The new owners introduced continental cut meat and cheese but you could tell the personnel did not know how to present (no serving forks and located openly without cooling on table in walkway). Good location for exploring Isle of Bute.
