We had a fantastic stay at a hotel in this city. The cleanliness of the rooms was exceptional. The hotel facilities were great, with a warm and inviting bar and restaurant that had historic features. The location in the center of old Stirling was convenient, and it was easy to find with parking available at the rear. The staff, particularly the receptionist and the manageress, were extremely friendly and helpful, going above and beyond to assist us in a difficult situation. The hotel's proximity to the train station made transportation easy, and the value for both the rooms and the food was excellent.
