Thoroughly enjoyed an electric kettle, central heating and an iron in the room. All the staff were amazingly nice and knowledgeable. The friendly service and the attention to detail! Lucky me, got ironing free of charge too. The hotel had an easy location metres from St ninians.

The room was beautifully done, and that shower? Divine! Plus, loved having a private entrance to escape the noise of the bar.
But goodness, that bed seemed like a medieval torture device! I think I met more springs than I should have.

Clean room with a trendy feel. Soundproofing failed, heard neighbors clearly. Close to golf course and good transport. BBQ area is nice too.

A Mixed Bag Stay
Had a cozy 3-night stay with my partner. Dining was a highlight. The fresh haddock in fish and chips was so great. On the downside, the cleanliness of our room left much to be desired, particularly the bathroom. Would advise the management to address these issues .

The room was nicely decorated and super clean. It felt cozy and trendy, awesome. The bed was comfortable, so we slept really well. It was a bit small for our liking. It was surprisingly quiet even with the busy bar downstairs during rugby weekend.

Loved the shower in the Beautiful King Room. The bed felt cozy, and the decor gave a nice vibe. Staff. Convenient access to the city with nearby bus stop. Had some trouble with noise from the bar downstairs. Music was loud until late. Could hear neighbors talking at times, which disturbed my sleep. The room size was smaller than expected, especially with luggage around. Had an issue with the heating. The space heater was quite noisy. Still, the room looked clean overall and well-designed, though it could benefit from better soundproofing. Enjoyed my time at the pub downstairs, especially the breakfast options. Would stay again if improvements were made to the noise levels.
