I had a mixed experience at this hotel. On one hand, the amenities like the spa and leisure facilities were enjoyable, and I found the staff to be accommodating. However, the dining options were frustrating, particularly with the inconsistent food quality and slow service. It feels like the place could really use some updates to elevate the overall experience.

I had a largely enjoyable stay, with superb staff making the experience memorable and delicious food being a standout highlight. The location was convenient, just a short distance from Elgin town, and the leisure facilities, particularly the spa and pool area, were well-maintained. However, the rooms do show signs of age and could use some updates to enhance comfort and aesthetics.

Rooms
7.0
The room I stayed in was clean and tidy, but it felt a bit dated and smaller than I hoped, especially since I was used to larger beds at home.
Service

Service was a mixed bag; while the staff were generally friendly and accommodating, there were moments where attention to detail slipped, like when a fan I requested was taken without notice.
Location

The location is very convenient, providing easy access to local attractions with a lovely green landscape surrounding the hotel.
Dining

Dining was a highlight; the meals, particularly the steak and chicken burger, were delicious and portions generous, although the breakfast hours could be more accommodating for early risers.

My stay at this hotel was a mixed bag. On one hand, the bed was extremely comfortable, which helped me get a good night's sleep. However, the dining experience was disappointing, especially with both dinner and breakfast lacking flavor and quality. The service in the restaurant also left a lot to be desired, with slow attendants and poorly executed orders. Overall, while the comfort level was decent, the food experience was not up to par for the price.

Rooms
6.0
The room was small but comfortable, though it had some issues like a shower that was only lukewarm and it was located next to a fire door that was disruptive.
Service

While the staff were well-meaning and had a friendly demeanor, the service in the restaurant was quite poor with slow response times and forgotten orders.
Location

The hotel's location was adequate, just off the main road, but it feels like it hasn't been cleaned in a long time.
Dining

I was really let down by the dining options. The burgers were dry and the breakfast lacked taste. For the price I paid, I expected much better food.

The hotel has basic amenities but they did not meet what I would expect from a spa-focused hotel.

I had a lovely stay at this hotel, enjoying the spacious and beautifully decorated room. The staff was welcoming and friendly, and I really appreciated the walking distance to the town center. However, the heat in the room made it difficult to sleep comfortably, and the shower was quite temperamental. Overall, it was a pleasant experience with some room for improvement.
