This hotel is in a great location for exploring Stirling by foot, can't beat it! It's a basic hotel but has all you really need, with no frills. Staff were fast and helpful, parking on site. Bathroom could have been cleaner, shower pressure isn't great. But rooms were quiet, bed comfortable.
Das Hotel wurde im Zusammenhang mit dem Oasis Konzert in Edinburgh gebucht, da dort die Preise exorbitant gestiegen waren. Das Hotel liegt phantastisch gelegen in einem großen Park mit Aussicht. Wir hatten die relativ einfache Kategorie gebucht. Diese Zimmer sind leider etwas antiquiert,, aber gut ausgestattet, sauber und groß, sie liegen gegenüber der Parkplätze im Rückgebäude. Das Bad war sauber und etwas klein. Das Hotel hat viele Treppen und enge Aufzüge. Alles ist mit Teppich ausgelegt oder Parkett. Großes Entree und Terrasse. Der Service war gut in Ordnung. Die Bar wurde schon früh geschlossen. Das kleine Dunblane liegt vor den Türen von Edinburgh bzw von Glasgow und ist gut zu erreichen, auch per Bahn.
Staff very friendly and helpful.
Room very cold - air conditioning system that clearly doesn’t work. Did read other reviews prior to arrival and should have taken note as this seems to be a common complaint.
Staff clearly aware as delivered an electric heater without question when asked for one.
Breakfast okay. Will not cook poached or fried eggs only scrambled.
Inside the Stirling university which is a nice and quiet environment, but it requires travelling to the city centre. There is no restaurant which opens for dinner except that in the hotel.
The original room on ground floor given to us has a strong odour smell, which did not disappear after cleaning by housekeeping team. The reception initially refused to change the room. Only after we insisted then we were given another room on the first floor, but it wasted us almost 1.5 hour in waiting.
Otherwise, everything is very good including the excellent breakfast.
