Macdonald Forest Hills Hotel & Spa

"It was a lovely stop over on the way to the highlands and was dog friendly which was excellent, the staff were all very friendly and helpful, it was in a beautiful location , highly recommended"

Fletcher's Restaurant Bar & Rooms

"We stayed here for two nights. Room was clean and comfortable. Bathroom was large. Very friendly staff and the restaurant/bar were also good. We ate here on the first night. The Venison was perfect; blade of beef was melt in the mouth and the cheesecake delicious. Service was friendly, helpful and cheerful. Would definitely stay here and eat here again."

Travelodge Stirling M80

"Despite being surrounded by motorways, there was surprisingly little if any traffic noise, other than on-site. We had paid extra to pick our own room so went for one on the other side of the building from the main car park. This may have been a mistake because the service road outside our window was lined by large lorries, two of which left by 5 a.m. early car departures my by quieter… The room was very clean and, being down the end of the corridor, quiet. This was also our choice, so there was less corridor noise to trigger our dog into barking. The service station is very small, but has a useful range of outlets, including Costa, Greggs, M&S food. Options for dog exercise are limited, although we did find a rough path through some trees that led about 100 metres up to a mobile phone mast, leading off the service road."

Golden Lion Hotel

"Lovely hotel with a great bar area. Room was clean with modern decor. Friendly helpful staff. Only downside was a poor breakfast. Ordered eggs Benedict which was not very nice at all. Each dish had to be ordered separately and worked out expensive. Prefer a buffet style breakfast. Would stay here again but would have breakfast elsewhere."

Carr's Hill Luxury Safari Tents

Rob Roy Hotel

"Our whole stay was excellent. The hotel, although a wee bit dated in parts, is spotlessly clean, smells really fresh and is warm and cosy. The staff are so friendly, helpful and efficient and the evening meals were excellent with good choices. The buffet breakfast was extensive and always hot. There was entertainment one of the nights. This hotel and its staff are very slick. There were multiple coaches every night we stayed but their presence did not affect nor did it impact on the service provided to other guests. Equally, the whole hotel is very spacious and never once felt crowded given the numbers staying. Centrally located for so many wonderful places to visit. Will be back and highly recommend to others."

Rachel's Farm Luxury Escapes with Hot Tubs

"I had an absolutely fantastic stay. We stayed as part of an art retreat and it was great on every level. I loved my room, so beautifully decorated and we used the hot tub every day. The food was fabulous and all the staff were so friendly and attentive. I would absolutely recommend Rachel’s Farm whatever the occasion."

Aberfoyle Inn

"We booked this hotel as we were attending a wedding near by. I explained that my husband has a bad back and we were offered a room in the cottage at the rear of the building. They did say there were stairs but not as many as in the main hotel. We checked in and were shown to the room which was out a fire exit, across an uneven courtyard and up a very steep flight of stairs. The room was dreadful. An old couch with one foot, 2 windows had blinds, one of which was broken, and one did not, the hanging rail was in the eves and the rail was so low you could not hang anything. Didn’t matter as there were no hangers and an old chair took up about 80% of the space. Bare plaster patch on the walls and the odd cobweb or two. We went down to the bar and the lady was very helpful and showed us 2 alternative rooms. We took one at the rear of the hotel and it was slightly better. Old furniture which had seen better days and the bed was very uncomfortable. The mattress was so soft and had a board underneath. The shower had a rusty soap stand and the water trickled out. We were told breakfast would be delivered and we are still waiting! Turns out a continental breakfast is served in the bar. We did not eat so cannot comment on the food but given that the fish and chip shop is part of the premises, you certainly got that aroma throughout the building. It such a shame that no investment is being made to this hotel as it’s in a great location and the bar has the promise to be something interesting. The staff were all very pleasant and helpful but I feel for them as they are trying their best in a very challenging building."
