We had a great stay at Hotel Colessio, the staff was friendly, and it’s in a great location to see Stirling Castle. Easily walkable from the hotel. Breakfast was good, had smoked salmon both days. I’ve seen people complain about the beds. Ours was firmer than we’re used to, but still comfortable enough for a good nights rest. I might be concerned about the shower accessibility if I was an older person. It’s a deep bathtub which was great but a little slippery and a large step over the edge. Parking was about around 18 pounds for 48 hours. Would stay again if I was coming to the area.

Colessio is in a great location, walking distance to Stirling Castle, the church, and many pubs. The rooms are nice, beautifully decorated and clean. The staff is very pleasant and accommodating. I do not recommend the breakfast, it was overpriced for what was provided.

The room was not the category that we had reserved. We had to argue to get this fixed. The paid for breakfast is disappointing: eggs are a supplement, as a latte. Finally, asked twice to get a second set of towels in the room (after all, there were two of us !!!). Never got the set. Location is incredible. But this is a common sell: looks incredible on the outside, underdeliver once inside. Will definitely come back to Stirling, but I will look for another "luxury" hotel.

Hotel & Staff absolutely amazing. Great bar with a great choice. Sadly only thing to let the hotel down was the breakfast, Scottish Breakfast simply awful (many others agreed) the amount of breakfasts left uneaten was a lot ! Fruit & Pastries were not replaced efficiently again leading to long delays and many people asking staff to replenish. I’m sure the breakfast issues can be sorted (although after speaking to regular guests it appears to have been an issue for a long time). We will certainly stay again as like I said staff and the hotel were great just the poor breakfast service and quality.

A bit odd, having to pay for parking, even though the car park is obviously theirs. Then having to book in at the bar was a bit weird. Room at some point had obviously been quite plush, good carpet and cutains, bathroom had nice fixtures and fittings, but was all a bit tired. Bed and pillows were comfy, room was very warm, and there seemed to be a building site next door that started at 7am. Most importantly, despite having a very nice looking restaurant, and an online menu they do not serve dinner (evening meal) at all, and had the gall to look surprised when I told them there was a menu on line.

The hotel is located in a striking, historical building and the location is great. Our room was also large, well lit and the ensuite bathroom was very nice. The hotel markets itself as a “luxury” hotel and has the makings of one. But the staff do not appear to be well trained, the food was not great, and the furniture in our room was moderate quality at best and somewhat beaten up by wear and tear. It is also strange that the hotel does not have control over parking on what appears to be its own property. With some money, quality management and training, this could be a true five star hotel. It was a pleasant place to stay as is.

Having read some less than positive reviews, we were a little bit sceptical about our stay. However, I can say nothing but good things about the hotel, our room, whilst not the biggest was clean, neat and tidy, the bar was lovely as was the dining room and the staff were all extremely pleasant and helpful. I would definitely recommend the hotel and will definitely stay there again. Only downside was the expensive car parking which is operated by a third party on the hotels land

A super friendly welcome and helpful people. The receptionist even carried my bag upstairs because I had hurt my back. My room was spotless and inviting. Even though the hotel is located on a main road, the traffic falls quiet in the early evening. I ate in the hotel both nights, and the food was very good. There was only one working socket in the room and just a single ceiling light. It would have been perfect with a comfy chair and a reading light.
