The Southfield Hotel

Very outdated! Bed uncomfortable. Pillows like a brick. Curtain ring unhooked. Plus lets light in even when closed. Carpets old worn and grubby. I cleaned bathroom straight away. Shower useless. Bath taps hard to reach as a shower partition would only move inwards so had to lean awkward to reach over to taps for bath. Toilet lid kept falling forwards.. Room very small for a twin. Not much space. Landlady polite only nice thing!

Our first visit to Girvan and stayed here based on TA’s reviews and we are surprised the hotel gets such positive reviews and such a high score. Girvan is a nice harbour town and the hotel is conveniently located for the town centre, the harbour, coastal walk and golf course. The lady who runs it is very nice and friendly, breakfast is good, a cooked breakfast has to be ordered the evening before but we didn’t find that a problem. The main issue was our bedroom, the bathroom, carpets and furnishings are a bit tired and dated and the over-bath shower worked poorly. Given TA’s reviews we had expected better

Expectations were high with a score of 9.2 but I was disappointed. Room a bit pokey, very odd matress & bedding, terrible shower. Decor throughout a bit tired. Residents bar very limited and nothing on draught. Breakfast was ok. On the plus side, staff were all very nice, location is quiet with a nice park opposite and there's enough parking. I'd stay again if in Girvan but can't say I'd look forward to it.

A really good guesthouse. We arrived very early, but that was no problem for the owner. Beds extremely comfortable. Great big bathroom, very clean. Brilliant breakfast. Yes, the stair carpet is a little worn, but that didn't detract from the place. Highly recommended

Very handy location for the town old fashioned building had to pre book breakfast room had everything you need wifi was good shower door did not close when in shower water leaked out and it jumped between hot and cold not serving evening meals when we were there so I recommend going Austin’s 5 min down the road Breakfast was fine good well cooked produce plenty parking right place for the money

The hotel was very good, with friendly, hard-working and competent staff. The breakfast was excellent - again provided by great staff. Our only real problem was that our double room was small, with barely enough room for one suitcase - let alone two.

Really wonderful staff, made it like a home from home. Clean and comfortable and the food was excellent

We stayed one night on way Ireland. Rooms with walk in shower on first floor. Had a lovely meal in the bar. Food was well prepared. Very good breakfast in morning. Just a short drive to Cairnryan. Queens Hotel is a very good place for a drink in comfort. Unfortunately not open on Wednesday Best place in Girvan for a drink.

We stayed here for two nights at the end of a two-week touring holiday in Scotland, the Southfield is very welcoming, and we found the bed to be the most comfortable of all the beds we slept in that holiday. The location is very good and the property has more than adequate parking. A generous supply of teas and coffee for the rooms. The breakfasts were excellent, well organised and laid out and the food was delicious. We had dinner on the second night and were really pleased that we did. Lovely home cooked food, ( the fish pie was delicious) with very friendly service and very reasonably priced, as were the drinks from the bar. Yes, It has been previously mentioned that the Southfield decor in some areas is a little tired, but it more than makes up for it in customer focus, comfort and cleanliness but above all value for money. All the staff were without exception friendly and very helpful.
