Hotels in Kirkton of Glenisla

"Pleasant refurbished hotel in a good location with free car parking. Clean modernised rooms with good en suite facilities and large TV. Room was warm throughout stay albeit radiators were not used. However room temperature became uncomfortable throughout the night and a very thick and heavy duvet together with a hard mattress made for an uncomfortable nights sleep. Breakfast was good with a nice selection of hot and cold food. The hot food was hot too! Something most hotels fail to deliver. Friendly staff and after check out guests can park their car for a further two hours which is a nice touch. Overall a 3 out of 5."

"Best avoid this hotel if booking through hotels.com or otherwise for that matter. Booked a twin room for as was sharing with my brother. Gave us a double and took 1.5 hours to sort it out (not ideal at 11pm after a 7 hour drive when we were waking at 7am to go skiing the next day"

"Liked lovely man that greets you on arrival and helped with our bags to the top floor when the lift was out of action. The room was spacious and very comfortable (the penthouse suite) however was freezing! No one thought to heat the room for our arrival?? First couple of hours kept my coat on. An engineer then arrived after asking reception twice to fix the issue. No toiletries for the bath - ixed to the wall by the sink out of reach. My husband told hotel it was a very special occasion a week or so before but absolutely no reference to this throughout the stay. That was a bit odd for a 5* hotel. The room wasnt cleaned after our first night despite asking for it to be done while we were out till 2pm and being assured it would be on our return. The spa is BASIC. Pool too cold to swim. Limited beds and crowded sauna/ steam room so stayed for 20 mins only. Treatment although lovely was not 90 mins. More like 75. And the noise from outside completely detracts from being in a zen like state! (£160 btw). Now the biggest issue is staffing. All are very very nice but theres just not enough so as a result service was so poor. Staff divulged they were working on days off to cover. The hotel was pretty full but owners clearly skimping on staffing costs which means that although a beautiful castle this is absolutely not 5 star service. So unfortunately left a bit deflated for what was an expensive weekend, not somewhere i would return sadly."
