10/10

Excellent from start to finish, every single member of staff was a credit to you. Lovely hotel, fantastic pool/Jacuzzi/sauna, great food and a lovely bar to sit and enjoy a few drinks. Booked this just to let us get to an early ferry easily but it genuinely added on a very valued and enjoyable night to our Holiday.

A lovely stay, nice big room overlooking the bay, if a bit dated. Food in restaurant was excellent but the portion size was way too big, my husband and I couldn’t finish our meal, so on the second night we only had starters.

Lovely clean room, we had dinner in the hotel which was excellent as was breakfast the following morning. The hotel is a little old fashioned & dated but we really enjoyed our stay and couldn’t fault anything. Didn’t have time to use the facilities but the swimming pool looked very good.

Outside of the building looked run down, rooms where very dated and the mattress tog must of been very high as I was sweating all night. Couldn't see the TV from the bed as it was so small. Food was lovely though

This is a really lovely traditional hotel . All the staff are really friendly & at the same time very professional. Yes, it’s a bit old fashioned but I really like this about the hotel . I love its traditional values. A very comfortable stay & a delicious dinner in a beautiful dining room. Great service .

My room was located in the Hotel Annex. The TV was poor quality and housed in a strange way on a coffee table. The Decor in the room was quite dated and the bathroom although functional was very tired. To me the annex which contained 3 bedrooms looked very much like staff accommodation.

1-night trip

8/10

Hotel was lovely and clean with spacious areas and rooms. Two negatives unfortunately. The bed was very creaky and uncomfortable and the evening meal was only Luke warm which spoilt the stay.
1-night trip

6/10

Feels as if the hotel is in need of TLC, but nobody wants to spend the money. The radiators may be switched off, but the pipework is still hot, so a summer's evening is very warm in the rooms. The bathroom glasses are plastic. The carpet has been around since Robert the Bruce's time. The toilet handle was hanging loose. Some of this can be easily fixed, some needs a bit more investment. If Stranraer had a Holiday Inn, it would be an instant preference.

A fabulous character hotel that we return to every year as we love the pool. the rooms are spacious, comfortable and warm (we always have a winter stay) and the staff are very friendly and welcoming
