Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers cozy and clean rooms with everything you need, but some noise from the kitchen area can disrupt sleep. The service is friendly and accommodating, managing to provide extra comforts. Its fantastic location near the seafront and various attractions makes it convenient for travelers. The dining experience is enjoyable with good food options. However, being located below a bar could affect the quietness of the stay.
The hotel is in a lovely older property with a clean, fresh style. Despite the room being like an oven due to the inadequate radiator, the service was friendly and helpful. The location was fantastic, close to everything in Brodick, with excellent dining options. However, I found the rooms too hot to sleep comfortably.
I had a lovely stay at the hotel. The rooms offered a pleasant view of the garden, although they were a bit small. The bathroom, on the other hand, was spacious and had a nice modern shower. However, my room was a bit too small since it was a single room.
