We had a fantastic 5-night stay. The location was perfect, right on the harbor, providing beautiful views. We enjoyed a delicious breakfast each morning, including a full Scottish breakfast to start our day. The staff, particularly Joan in the dining room, were friendly and attentive, making our stay comfortable and enjoyable.

The hotel's location in the town centre facing the harbour provided us with a fabulous view from our room. The breakfast menu had excellent choices and the staff were friendly and attentive. The hotel facilities were clean and well-maintained. We were relieved to find parking available in the small hotel car park, considering the busy nature of this city.
