8/10 Very good

Nice location, good quality food and comfortable room. However, we were disappointed with the quality of the room given the price. The decor was tired with stains on chair and our location in the hotel was quite noisy.

Lovely stay. Good location. Food good although breakfast disappointing- good selection of cooked dishes but continental buffet not kept topped up and ran out of basics like croissants early.

Food was delicious, a bit pricey but everywhere is pricey nowadays. Bed very comfortable. Just small things like sofa could have been vacuumed and areas in room that are touched a lot could have been cleaned, but the room was clean overall.

ALEXANDER, 1-night trip

A quality stay

Excellent stay, only one night but well worth it, staff were fantastic and so hard working the boys in the restaurant/bar never stopped and still kept up with requests from the reception desk. Room view was great across the firth and the sunrise was a particular bonus treat. The quality of the food was excellent including a wonderful Sunday roast and continued to a delicious breakfast, the kitchen staff should be proud of the dishes they have served.
