Reviews and Ratings
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! It's located near all the bars and restaurants, close to the lovely seafront, and very convenient with the bus station nearby. The rooms were spotless with modern furniture, a private bathroom, and pleasing decorations. The service was top-notch, they even accommodated our early breakfast request due to our ferry time. The dining experience was a letdown as it was available but not included in our rate. Overall, a great value for money option with a few minor drawbacks.
The hotel is in a prime location, near the seafront and within walking distance of various dining options. The rooms are well-decorated with clean towels, but the en-suite facilities could be better. The service was accommodating, especially with early breakfast requests, but additional amenities like car hire and dry cleaning come at extra cost.
The hotel is ideally located in the historic area of Ayr, near all the bars and restaurants, offering a short walk to the town centre and the beach. The rooms are beautifully decorated with good en-suite facilities, but the bedding could be cleaner. The service was top-notch with accommodating staff, offering early breakfast upon our request. However, dining was not included in our rate but served on really hot plates. Overall, a pleasant stay with minor room cleanliness issues.
