Turret suite
Really enjoyed our two-night stay in one of the turret suites. The hotel was still beautifully decorated for Christmas but very peaceful being a few days after Hogmanay. Overall condition of the building is excellent, especially given its age and historic nature, which must make it a real challenge to maintain. Our room, bathroom and the turret lounge above were very clean and well presented. Excellent comfy super-king bed. Public rooms were lovely - warm and welcoming. Swimming pool area was very clean and a pleasure to use.

Overpriced and dated
We booked a night to stay at a castle during our trip to Scotland. We were placed in a room on the main floor which was towards the end of a hallway. The room was very musty of which the stench stuck to our clothes even after we left. For the amount we paid, we expected a bit more. The breakfast was better than expected and the staff in the breakfast area were very friendly.

Never again
Room 136 was located above a pub with very loud live music. It kept us awake until midnight and completely ruined our stay. Can't believe we paid £175 for this experience. Will Hotels.com give us a refund?

The hotel was really nice. The staff were friendly and helpful. The cleanliness of some areas was not good, this includes cobwebs. The bar menu was good, a bit pricey but it is expected. The Al a cart menu on the other hand was very disappointing, no imagination when it can to the menu and very limited. The breakfast buffet was great. My partner and I had a good time though.
