10/10 Exceptional

We were instantly upgraded due to a leak caused by storm Amy in our room. The staff were so good and nothing was too much trouble for them. The breakfast was wonderful, we had the full Scottish breakfast and enjoyed a lovely meal and cocktails in one of two bars. Can’t fault this place! I’d go back for sure!

8/10 Very good

The place was great… totally felt like I was in an Agatha Christie novel… great vegan options too… my room was cute and clean… only complaint was the obvious damage of something previous on the ceiling so it felt a little less special.

Nice enough but nothing special

Room was clean and small but adequate. Reception very polite and helpfull. Breakfast poor only 3rd days breakfast much better. Bar seemed nice enough but busy had a meal in the breakfast room. Housekeeping could be improved

10/10 Exceptional

It’s a charming older hotel with a lot of character. Rooms are quiet, clean & tidy. Stayed for a week & was extremely comfortable. Used their restaurant for all the breakfasts and sometimes their lunch or dinner menu’s too. There were a variety of options on the menu, good value and very satisfying.

Average

Super comfy bed, good sized room & bathroom. Bathroom had quite a strange odour & the floor could do with a better clean. Two showers in the bathroom both of which did not have hot water, quite cold.

It was the closest to where I was going.

8/10 Very good

Nice hotel and bar with a friendly atmosphere. Good value for money. Large parking area. With single glass windows and no heater the bathroom was a bit cold. Not a big problem though. Will stay again when in Helensburgh

It was convenient to what I wanted to see.
Mark, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Comfortable but rubbish shower

The staff were really friendly and helpful, we arrived early and were allowed to drop our suitcase at reception whilst we went into town. We were also allowed to do an early check in which was really great. The bed was super comfortable, I did have to ask for extra pillows and toilet roll but this was provided promptly. The only let down was the shower, which was awfully low pressure and basically just a dribble. This was very disappointing. There were also no surfaces or shelves to put our toiletries, toothbrushes etc in the bathroom. Breakfast was nice, with a good selection to choose from. The location was great for us and overall we would stay again, however I would ask for a different room next time due to the rubbish shower.
Emma, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very friendly staff from all parts of the team (restaurant, bar and hotel). Extremely clean and comfortable with a view to being eco-friendly. The restaurant for breakfast, lunch & dinner was high quality & value with a variety of choices. Had a small problem with logging onto the Wi-Fi at one point and seemed to be a little slow, but not really a big deal.

Lovely hotel

Friendly staff and lovely clean fresh room. We didn’t eat there but the food looked good. Only issue was check in and out. Had to ring the reception bell multiple times then go to bar and ask for help. If you fix this issue it will be a perfect place to stay. Would definitely go back

good beer, bad place to stay

It was very bad. more like an old seaside B&B

10/10 Exceptional

Great escape with incredible views.

Have just had a wonderful 2 night stay. The outside is magnificent, but at night it has such a magical feel to it. We had dinner both nights in the bar area and it was idyllic and had a cosy feel to it. The fireplace was one of my favourite things, I have a great love of old decor and I adored the mix of old and new decor. The portions were incredible generous and would definitely recommend the burgers!. It’s been beautiful renovated throughout and I loved the country cottage style decor feel of our room. I think it’s a wonderful touch that all the rooms are named after paddle steamers and boats. The staff were all so friendly, welcoming and accommodating. The views are incredible too, both during the day and the twinkling lights at night.
