Hotel.com don't care at all!!

Just expect to get your breakfast plate taken away before you are finished! I have tried to tell the proprietor about this issue via the app also via X with no feedback whatsoever! Maybe Hotels.com don't really care or want to hear real feedback! Just get InTouch with me please!

Always know what you’re getting. Good breakfast and nice pub across car park for evening meals. Clean rooms. We had a twin room but only one bedside table between the beds. There was easily room for a small shelf on the other side. No need for plugs just somewhere to put phone, kindle, etc.

It’s a no frills stop if you’re only staying in Stirling for a night. It’s located in a business park so the area around it isn’t great and there’s not much to offer close by. Thankfully there is a pub/restaurant in the hotel across the street with a more substantial menu than the bistro downstairs here. Not going to give it top marks, but it is a good, clean place to crash for a night.
