Best Western - accommodation in Biggar

So, the good stuff first. Price is fantastic value. Location is ideal, just off the M74. Room was warm, quiet and clean. Bed was great. Now the real let-down. The smell of dope on the first floor would have knocked you out, despite the ‘No Smoking’ signs on all the doors. I reported it to reception. It was clear to me which was the offending room and I invited the staff to take a stroll past. Not sure if they did or not but the smell was still there the next morning when I left. You wouldn’t need to have been Miss Marple to track down the offender. Apart from the smell it was a clear fire hazard. I’m due back in Scotland soon and would love to stay again. But that has made me hesitate.

Have stayed at this Hotel a few times and felt this time the food/bar service poor. Had an evening meal with very limited menu and had to go and collect yourself from the kitchen bar area. Tables not clean or trays. Felt like we were at our old school canteen!

Warm welcome from staff. Beautiful room.
