Good Choice for us
Staff were very good and helpful. Good breakfasts and great to have server come and take orders for a freshly cooked breakfast. It was very convenient to the P & J Live venue where the event we were going to was held. Nice bar and prices reasonable

Quiet, Comfortable, Convenient
Perfectly located for P&J Live - less than a 5 minute walk. Stayed for two nights, very quiet and I slept very well. Breakfast was really good and so much variety. M&S Foodhall and Co-op 10 minute walk. Would recommend.

The staff is extremely friendly and very helpful with requests. The room we had was small, and the bed was also small. Everything is kind of old and needs an update. The bathroom was awful as the shower was basically over the toilet and everything was soaked by the time you finished showering (toilet, vanity, floor). The bathroom was basically never dry, and if I showered that day and I could not use the toilet in socks because it's basically just a big puddle all the time.

Ideal comfort stop for then P&J or airport
Great stay for Michael Macintyre. Ideal location with just a 10 minute walk away. Free parking also.
Comfortable room although a bit dated, but didn’t take away from the stay.
Good nights sleep dispute a couple of planes from the airport.
Very good breakfast and plenty choice. Large Scottish cooked breakfast and a full contintial with fresh baked and fruit.
Will return if at another event and the P&J or at the airport.

Nice Hotel and very helpful staff. Room was clean and warm. Ideal for show at P&J Live with a short walk along a direct path. The menu looked good for evening meal but couldn't get a table so would suggest pre-booking a table.

Clean room. All the staff are really friendly. The hotel is handy for P & J Live as it's not even a 10 minute easy walk. Would definitely stay again if up to P & J

Amazing Hotel
We stayed for 1 night in a twin room which was great for us. Beds were lovely and comfy plenty of pillows and blankets if needed. Tea and coffee was good in the room with hot chocolate and shortbread yum yum lol . Shower was great plenty of room to hang up clothes in wardrobe. Breakfast was amazing I had smoked haddock and poached eggs which were amazing. Filtered coffee plus apple juice also plenty of other options for breakfast and continental. Staff were all amazing and very helpful will definitely stay again when watching a band or comedian as short walk to venue.
