Très bel hôtel ( sert à des marriages ), chambres aux hauts plafonds , tentures cossues , grandes fenêtres . Lit de 1m80 😃 Près de Stirling et de son château et d un super resto italien Le Chianti Idéal avant un retour par Édimbourg
Rien
Restaurant, plenty of parking, very clean, nice room Nice hotel
For the price we paid, we djd not expect to pay supplements on breakfast or in the restaurant. Suorised to find laundary stacked around the entrance to the garden wing during our stay
Fantastic evening meals, with good menu. Delicious breakfast. Wonderful friendly staff, always helpful and smiling -if busy. Lovely rooms, some with sea views. (Next time we visit that’s my aim). On this occasion it was a last minute find and a very good one. We will return - oh how I wish I lived closer so I could eat here often!
Nothing! Nothing not to like. (But some rooms have many stairs).
Frühstück war gut, das Zimmer an sich auch in Ordnung. Recht geräumig.
Wenn es etwas gibt, dass wirklich nicht barrierefrei ist, dann dieses Hotel. Man muss die Koffer nicht nur Treppen hoch schleppen sondern auch durch mehrere Brandschutztüren... das ist mehr als nur sperrig gewesen. Mit Baby im Gepäck... also... eher schwierig.
Lovely building just a tad dated. The room was comfortable and clean. It lacked plug sockets though. The only 2 there were not best placed. Other than that it was fine.
There was nothing else nearby. The hotel/ restaurant was isolated. You needed to drive if you wanted to go anywhere else. However the main attractions eg the Kelpies etc are only a short drive away
Great location for concert at Helix parkl. Big room, comfy bed and good quality breakfast
The room was expensive, hotel definately profiting for concert audiences. Next time we will drive and park in one of the many many industrisl estates close by.instead of staying over
Breakfast was very good
Nothing
The staff, especially in the restaurant, were great. Travelling solo, I'm often offered the worst and smallest table in a restaurant: here I was given excellent table for 4 (ate there on 3 occasions). Great location for gig in Helix Park Comfortable bed.
Only 2 X 13 amp sockets , no usb. Other sockets were v old 3 round pin. Early morning wake up call didn't happen
Comfortable, nice room and breakfast was good.
Too many laundry bags lying about the hallway.
The staff were extremely helpful, attentive, warm and welcoming
The room was very outdated, with a lack of electric sockets, lack of mobile phone charging facilities, the room badly needs an upgrade.
Les lits très confortables, le personnel adorable
Le coté un peu vieillot de l'hotel
Locatie op de route (niet eerst ver vd hoofdweg af)
Het bed. We hadden de executive room genomen met het grootste bed. Leek zacht maar bleek oud springverenmatras met een bekbed erop als topper.
Lovely, traditional hotel, walking distance to the Kelpies.
The evening meal in Cooks was excellent. The reception staff were efficient, helpful and friendly. The bed was very comfortable-the room and en suite was spacious and clean
The lift was not working ( though staff offered someone would help us with our bags) Our breakfast experience was not as enjoyable as we had anticipated
The main house looked nice, but we were in an outside building. This was very dated.
Very dated and worn, the bathroom was very dirty and we had no towels when we arrived. Beds were very comfy that was the best thing.
Consider it a stopover hotel on the way to the airport..
Staff who don't look at you or greet you when you arrive, only one towel between two people in the bathroom, a tiled soap dish with no soap dish that slipped into the sink, and an extractor fan that looked like a spaceship. Breakfast consisted of reheated mini-brioches that looked like they were made yesterday, and hot milk was already on the table in a lidless jug... so cold.
The property was close to the kelpies and wheel which is what we anted after spending the day at eh military tattoo
We were placed in the garden rooms away from main hotel Hole in the ceiling had been patched and painted Stains on carpet Moth bitten curtains Grout and damp on tops of tiles where meeting ceiling
Friendly staff, exceptionally clean and the perfect location for Falkirk attractions. Our boxer dog Bear loved it and loved his sausages for breakfast every morning, such a lovely thing to do. Thank you 😊
Only thing I could say is there is a lot of wasted outdoor space that could be so much more.
Lovely staff, went above and beyond for a comfortable stay Comfy rooms, clean and spacious Great cooked breakfast (not a buffet) Convenient location Free parking
Nothing - some reviews say outdated rooms but it doesn't distract from the little extras that make this hotel a perfect choice
Nice location between Edinburgh and Sterling, next to the town of Falkirk, gives both a good launch point to explore the region and have options for eating and shopping. Hotel is old, in a good way - clearly historic, bringing an element of history to the stay. The executive room was large, especially for two people. Beds were just ok - a bit soft for our liking, but it seems to be a trend in Scotland. Decorations and furnishings were nice. When the heatwave hit, the staff was nice and gave us a fan for the room.
We had big issues with the plumbing in our room. The toilet, after flushing, keeps dripping into the tank for about 10 minutes - which is very annoying. Water pressure was nearly non-existent, with the shower head dribbling out water - it took several minutes to even wash off the soap from our bodies. Finally, the hot water line clearly runs parallel to the cold water line because the coldest the water from the tap got was about body temperature, which is not great for drinking. I think renovations, namely to the plumbing, are sorely needed.
Acceuil agreable. La chambre et salle de bain spacieuses. Bien positionné sur la route ente Edimbourg et les Highlands.
Legerement bruyant (autoroute et aussi soirée privée dans leur grand salon). Le petit dejeuner est correcte mais n'est pas a l'image d'un petit dejeuner britannique. Oeuf brouille médiocre sans aucune preparation (se rapproche meme des oeuf en brique).
Pas d’ascenseur plusieurs étages
Vieux et défraîchi
De grandes chambres, confortable et plutôt cosy. Environnement calme, parking et restaurant partenaire juste à coté de l'hôtel. Le restaurant est par ailleurs très correct. Un hôtel au charme un peu "à l'ancienne" mais qui tient ses promesses.
Le buffet du petit déjeuner est un peu chiche. Il est complété par une carte à la commande (inclus dans le forfait petit déjeuner). Pas de jus d'orange...
Grande chambre Propre
Collé sur l’autoroute moins de 10 m de distance entre la fenêtre et l’autoroute. Pas de climatisation donc fenêtre ouverte, beaucoup de bruit. Lit peu confortable. Environnement pas agréable vu la proximité autoroute. Pas ce que j’imaginais.
Good location for travelling in Central Belt of Scotland. Although on the edge of an industrial area and close to M9 motorway there was relatively little noise. Breakfast was a good way to start the day and staff were pleasant.
Parts of the hotel are rather "tired" and could do with some refurbishment. Most of the bedrooms are in the Garden Annexe and for an evening meal you need to visit Cooks (across Car Park). No problem in good weather but might be a problem in wet weather.
Stanza molto grande con tanti piani d'appoggio.
Un enorme tubo vicino alla finestra della camera faceva tantissimo rumore. Staff non gentile né accogliente.
The facility was lovely and the staff were very helpful. We requested a room change due to my husband not being able to do the stairs in the manor and the receptionist was very accommodating and was able to sort this out for us, despite the manor being very busy. Lovely people to deal with. We ate at Cooks Restaurant every night and the food was delicious with large portions. The host was amazing, so friendly and fun to talk to. We even managed to get a copy of the Potato and Leek soup (which was divine) from the chef Anastasia. Would recommend both the manor and the restaurant.
I only had 2 issues while there. 1. The mattress of our bed sagged in the middle. 2. There were 2 fire alarms (false ones as it turned out) which we immediately evacuated for and neither time did anyone come to the garden wing to advise all was okay. We had to seek them out ourselves to find out they were false alarms.
Fantastiska sängar och rymligt rum.
Staff pleasant and room etc was clean
Room could do with a bit of tlc
great location , friendly staff, comfy beds, rooms and bathrooms are spotless. lovely evening meal at the adjoining pub/restaurant. Fantastic breakfast. Would definitely stay again
nothing
Vriendelijk personeel, ruime kamer. Goede locatie als je de volgende dag vanaf Edinburgh moet vliegen. Restaurant wat erbij zit is goed.
Gedateerde inrichting, badkamer zat vol met schimmelplekken. Matrassen zijn erg hard. Ontbijt erg Schots georiënteerd. Er is wel iets anders, maar daar is niet veel keuze in.
Kvalita snídaně nic moc.
Food is good
Thick dust on woodwork, mould in kettle, ripped curtains, bathroom vent Thick with dust.
Vicinanza all’autostrada e all’aeroporto di Edimburgo.
Struttura molto datata, moquette logora e in parte rotta. Lenzuola macchiate e cimici in camera.
Das Frühstück war sehr gut
Zimmer waren sehr heiß und laut wegen Straßenverkehr.
Room facing very noisy front road, awful shower pressure, nice big room. Nice breakfast
Shower pressure
The property is close to the highway and The Kelpies. The restaurant The Cooks was great, with excellent service.
Rooms and bathrooms are tired
Not much. Location was convenient
Staff was not professional. Rooms were very outdated.
The room was nice and large and bed comfortable. Location to get to the kelpies was great.
We felt the hotel was a little run down and needed a refresh considering the cost per night. The breakfast options weren't great either.... we opted for a boiled egg.
Staff were excellent friendly and helpful
The breakfast was amazing! The staff were so kind and friendly and helpful. The food in the restaurant next to the hotel was lovely. The room size was brilliant. Good parking. Great location. Main thing is that it was clean.
There was a funny musty smell in our room on arrival, also just personal choice but I would take out the bath and have walk in rain showers. The beds were put together to make a big bed, but I kept falling down the middle! 😆 A bit of modernising and updating it will be perfect for the price.
The breakfast staff , superb especially Connor
Nothing
Perfectly placed to see both the kelpies and falkirk wheel. Great to have a restaurant right on the property. BEST BED EVER super comfortable.
No lift up yo our room
On our return trip from the Highlands to Edinburgh, we were delighted by this stopover. The room was very large, with comfortable beds, and an easy to access and safe parking lot. From the hotel we were able to walk to the Kelpies, which we did during the late afternoon, then drove back to see them after dark. What a treat! Breakfast offered a fabulous selection, served in the hotel dining room by very friendly staff.
There was nothing I didn't like.
Good Location
Lifts were not operating. For elderly people it’s hard getting up the stairs with their suitcase.
Fantastic hotel - staff friendly and room very clean and comfortable! Always have a good nights sleep when I stay here
Absolutely nothing - everything is perfect
Everything
Nothing
Everything went as I had expected
🫖/coffee in the room with be a bonus Mattress was near the end of its life
Bed was comfortable and room size was good. Staff was friendly, parking was ample and secure. Food in restaurant was fresh and good value. Bathroom was clean and fresh. Wi-Fi was very good.
Shower was very weak and no water pressure was in the shower. Also if a little gym is added to this hotel, promoting health and fitness, it will be much better.
Comfortable room. Good dinner in Cooks.
Breakfast was pleasant although not a huge choice and the staff serving were lovely
The overall decor of the room is tired and dated. The room had a musty/dusty smell to it
Lovely big bedroom. Good breakfast
Nothing
The onsite Cooks Restaurant served great food and generally the hotel was very good with professional and helpful staff.
A bit of traffic noise in our particuler bedroom but the room was generally good.
Really clean and convenient to where we needed to be in Grangemouth
Nothing
Location was good as visiting family close by.
Following 5 hr drive, arrived and was a wedding going on at hotel. Checked in , stayed in garden wing. Room dated but passable. Went next door to cooks bar for meal and couple of drinks. Went to unwind in the hotel bar and was full with guests attending wedding. Took our drink to our room to relax and children from the wedding were running up and down the hall screaming and banging on doors. Was ongoing between 9pm & 12:30am. Rang reception to complain and still continued and now children also circling outside around from hallway to garden outside window. Until finally guests must have left. Bed was very uncomfortable with hard slats or something? 2nd night arrived back from visiting family and thought would attempt a quiet drink in bar abt 8:30pm only for bar to be closed and no staff around. Paid £270 for 2 very disappointing nights stay.
La posizione e lo staff
Nulla da segnalare
The size of the room was excellent. We felt all facilities were present for the price point and possibly a little more, e.g the offer of fresh milk should you require it, biscuits, comfy arm chairs, tissues. I have paid more for less. Was an easy, safe walk to the Kelpies - pavements and tarmac tow path.
We felt the breakfast let it down. Everything you would wish was there, including fruit salad and fresh fruit, but we did not enjoy the coffee and cooked breakfast.
Limpieza. Amabilidad del personal. Hotel antiguo pero con habitaciones amplias y muy bien cuidado. Y muy limpio.
No había ascensor.
Location was good for the kelpies
Was super needing renovated - for the price per night we were expecting a really fancy stay and it was anything but that unfortunately
Good location.
Not enough towels, a bit run down , bedside light did not work but we were told it was fine.
Very comfortable and location was excellent
Nothing didn’t like
It’s in a great location for helix park and any concerts or festivals held there.
Overpriced (probably due to demand for concert accommodation) and the rooms smell damp and musky.
Staff are wonderful, so friendly & helpful. Everywhere was very clean & facilities were excellent. Bed Very comfortable. Hotel very dog friendly. Breakfast selection was very good. Great to have Cook's Bar & Kitchen so close for evening meals.Location really good, lovely walk to The Kelpies & handy driving distance to Falkirk Wheel
Only minor niggle is no bin outside or nearby for dog poop. No accessible general waste bin out back that we could find.
Excellent staff
None
The room was very spacious with lots of character, the bed was excellent and the bathroom was spacious.
Lovely clean hotel room...staff could not be more helpful..food was lovely too.
Leaving lol
Welcoming by staff, clean and nicely furnished room. Close to places we wished to visit.
The hotel is in a good location plenty of parking the staff were very helpful. The food was good only had the breakfasts but they were excellent and the service very good.The room was spacious and the beds comfortable.
The main complaint is the room we were booked into room 6 thats had a big noisey kitchen fan outside the window. We got moved to room 3 that was better but had a hopeless showers that the fan in the bathroom was really noisy. Also some parts of the room looked worn out dust behind the bed and cupboards. Not really deluxe as we paid for.
La colazione preparata al momento e l’ambiente
Nulla in particolare
The hotel is lovely, clean and up together. It was perfectly located for the Kelpies and the Falkirk wheel. We had evening meal in the adjoining pub, excellent value for money and really tasty. Breakfast was couldn't be faulted, Megan and the girls looked after us really well. Nothing was too much trouble.
Nothing
Good location for Visiting Edinburgh and going North. Very comfortable bed and excellent steak in restaurant
Needed a little love
Very clean staff very good
Nothing
Excellent staff, cracking breakfast, good restaurant on site and 15 min stroll to the Kelpies. The wee dram of lowland whisky was delicious.
Not a lot to complain about at all. Bed was a little soft for my liking, but slept well
Staff member Jennifer. Had a problem with our room, reported this to Jennifer who was working at reception. No fuss, no drama, new room straight away. Phoned the room later on to check that everything was okay and provided complimentary drinks. Excellent customer service, turned around a problem into a positive.
Some cheese to go with the cold meats at breakfast would have elevated the breakfast just that wee bit more.
good breakfast
N/A
We were assigned a room with the worst mattress for anyone to sleep on. The room was also not very clean and with old tired looking furniture. After complaining the next day, the staff helped us out and assign a much nicer room to us with a great bed and much cleaner than the previous one. Thank you for this.
The staff lacked warmth and we felt that we were a bother to them. The breakfast was not very good and the breakfast staff rushed us to order. The toast was dry and cold.
Breakfast was very good. Room was nice apart from the stairs, which we were advised about the number beforehand.
On our second night, the Cook restaurant tried to serve my wife, who is Coeliac, non gluten free chips in spite she wss ordering from the gf menu.
Wasn't far from where we were going.
Wasn't very clean , needs updated . Curtains were filthy , spider webs in the bathroom, the remote for the TV looked like it had never been cleaned. One if the windows wouldn't open. And needs a fridge in the room. Very disappointed was thinking from the pictures it was going to be lovely.
