Noisy

Other guests were very noisy for a Saturday morning between 6:30am + 8:30am. The cleaner also tried to enter at 9:30am. The bed was very uncomfortable unfortunately. However staff were kind, check in was easy. I enjoyed the ease of it.

Charming old hotel with modern amenities. We were upgraded to the Victorian Suite which was a large room with vanity area and sitting area. The front desk was very accommodating and they answered all my texts prior to arrival.

Great hotel and location, breakfast was good. We had a problem with a leaky window and were immediately upgraded to the beautiful honeymoon suite. The staff were all exceptional!!! So friendly and welcoming. Unfortunately had to cut our stay a day late due to unforeseen circumstances but were refunded for the extra night that we couldn’t stay. A wedding was on and it was awesome to see the bagpiper and the wedding guests all having a great time.

Lovely welcome, large clean well appointed room. Decor is fresh but respectful of the age of the building. Staff invariably friendly and helpful. My only glitch was a somewhat fitful supply of hot food at the breakfast.

Good but tired hotel now

Sadly this hotel needs an update all round, the restaurant downstairs was great but the food wasn’t exactly great and to the description on the menu. Rooms are quite small, too warm, and Beds aren’t great. There isn’t many options in the Greenock area so this Hotel will always do well but a major refurb would help.
