Guests say
Guests consistently praised the hotel's excellent location, friendly and helpful staff, and the unique experience of staying in a castle. Many enjoyed the atmosphere, comfortable rooms, and special touches like whisky tastings. However, several guests noted issues with breakfast quality and selection, noise disturbances from the bar or kitchen, and some accessibility challenges due to stairs. While some rooms were found to be small or had poor views, the overall sentiment was positive, especially regarding the setting and service.
