Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is located in a lovely area near the center of town. The rooms are spacious and modern with very comfortable king-sized beds. The breakfast served is excellent, although the bar inside the old building could use some updating. The hotel provides a nice atmosphere for pre-dinner drinks.
This hotel is a hidden gem, nestled in an old building with a charming bar on the top floors. The bigger double bed in my room was a plus, and the breakfast was excellent. However, the noise from the bar could be a disturbance at times.
My stay at this hotel was fantastic! The room had a very comfortable King-sized bed and the breakfast was excellent. The walk-in shower was a great feature, and the bigger double bed on the top floor was a nice touch. The hotel is located on a pretty square, making it a charming spot to stay, and it's centrally located to all tourist areas in and around the Clyde.
This hotel offers a comfortable stay with a very cozy King-sized bed, excellent breakfast on the top floors, a bigger double bed, and a walk-in shower. The location is fantastic, close to ferries for islands and near the center of town. The service provided, including room service, housekeeping, and a welcome drink, is top-notch. However, the dining experience, while offering cold meats and cheap bread for toast, could be improved with freshly prepared eggs. Overall, a great value for money option!
