Guest Reviews

• Stephen (8/5): - The property had a really easy check in procedure. The room was clean and well equipped
• JAMES (10/5): - The check in was easy and we had no problems with noise or anything else
• Maria Elena (8/5): - Contactless check-in/check-out. No staff to interact with. Basic but comfortable room. Restaurant closed during our one night stay.
• Allan (8/5): - I have stayed here before, so kind of knew what to expect and the place didn't disappoint. I only have one comment on my stay there, this time. I checked in late as I'd been visiting relatives in Dunblane and spent the evening with them on both nights of my stay, so I arrived each night at circa 10:30pm. The room was cold and the heating was off. However, during the first night, I was woken by a noise in the room, which turned out to be the noise of the water pumping through the radiator, AT 3AM! Within a few minutes, the radiator was very hot, so I turned it off. The second night I turned the radiator off fully, before getting into bed. I suspect that the on/off heating clock may be out of kilter, explaning why the heating went off well before 10:30 and came on at 3am. Other than that, the stay was great, thank you, and I would recommend. Allan Dyer
• Anna (10/5): - Excellent facilities, very comfy bed, lovely setting
• Hilary (4/5): - Shabby and unkempt looking. Checking in was too late and the staff were not helpful. The hotel needs some work
• Sean (2/5): - Not sure where to start really. I'm sure many other reviewers have mentioned the lack of staff. The whole place clearly is a ghost of something far grander that used to exist. According to some locals we spoke to, in it's heyday Old Churches was a great hotel, had a lovely restaurant and was one of the town's cornerstones. This might be why is still enjoys a high rating on many sites. But for whatever reason (COVID maybe), the place has become a shell of whatever former self it enjoyed. It is all self check-in/out, there's no front desk. Which certainly wasn't the worst aspect of our stay, but added to the place's eary feel. The fact there are still so many signs for things that no longer exist (restaurant, reception, even a gym!) made the place seem like some old abandoned building. However, as I said, this wasn't the worst part. The hotel is very very dated. The room we had was one of the most tired and grotty I've stayed in, if not the worst. And it was quite dirty. A quick look under the bed, or behind a piece of furniture showed the room desperately needed a deep clean. And don't get me started on how uncomfortable the bed was. Overally the only enjoyable aspect of the hotel was the location. It is right in the centre of town and has a lovely view of the cathedral across the road.

• Neville (10/5): What’s not to like? - Great location in Dunblane near to rail station. Street parking right outside hotel door. Really easy check in and departure. Large comfortable room, clean and well maintained. Excellent value.
• Lisa (10/5): - Very nice place.
• Leigh Ann (8/5): - This was a cute little place across the street from a church. I would have liked fans to circulate air, but otherwise we were good
• Chris (6/5): - Needs some TLC
• Paul S (8/5): - I stay here a lot,very central for restaurants public transport. I like having no contact with staff as your sent room no and key us waiting for you when you go in to room,I love the size of their towels,no complimentary shampoo etc,room on the cold side for summer,I’m happy to recommend and il stay again
• Verified traveler (8/5): Good base and clean - This was good for us as a base and a comfortable and clean place to stay. The room was that just a room with a bathroom. Had twin beds rather than a double but didnt matter, beds were comfy enough but no space to move and no chest of drawers or wardrobe. This place was cheapest we could find for a gig nearby and seemed there was a few others staying doing the same. Shower was fab but some mould in shower and roof. Free parking nearby and outside( it was full when we arrived) and a few pubs/cafes within 5 mins. Train station 5 minute walk so ideal for getting about. Beech tree cafe was great for food and breakfast next day. Its not luxury but not basic(premier inn) so i would stay for a pitstop but not for romantic break or longer break.
• Derek (4/5): Would we stay again - No - Positive Location with Cathedral View Free parking close by Dunblane is great Negatives Would not stay again for a number of reasons: Not clean Tired rooms with mould on shower roof, cobwebs, no air conditioning, not cleaned to appropriate standard, general scapes and marks both in room and in communal areas. No staff appear to be on duty and no reception area.
• Sally (10/5): - We were very impressed.
• Elizabeth (6/5): - Missed having a breakfast. A pity about the UHT milk. Very anonymous - not even a receptionist. But otherwise comfortable and clean.
• Brian (10/5): - Great property for our quick overnight before heading North after our flight to Glasgow
• Lissa (10/5): - Lovely old house. Room comfortable. No staff on site. Checkin easy though and instructions sent in timely fashion
• Babs (4/5): - No service or assistance. Shower drain blocked, bathroom floor uneven and slippery when wet. Bed comfortably room adequate Not told room was up marrow stairs, not suitable bc for the elderly.
• Iain (8/5): - The property was nice and it was quiet, however during*the whole of my stay I saw nobody around. No staff present to greet or check to see that everything was ok.
• Paul Steven (10/5): Great as always - Amazing place to stay,straight across from Cathedral,handy for all restaurants and places of interest,I come to dunblane often and always stay here,I was upgraded to king room so very comfortable and a very quiet area to stay,highly recommended
• Verified traveler (10/5): Overnight stay - Simple auotmated check in. Clean comfy room.
• Catherine (8/5): - The property was situated in a very nice area of Dunblane opposite the Cathedral. Entry was by a keypad and we didn’t see anyone during our stay. Plenty of tea and coffee provided for the room. The room could have done with a freshen up with paint especially the radiator. We had a nice stay at a reasonable price.
• Alan (4/5): - There was no breakfast available despite this being offers on the Expedia site and there are no staff on site to deal with any questions. I booked this because my previous visit 2 years ago was very satisfactory.
• Shirley (8/5): - Beautiful view of the Dunblane Cathedral from our room!
• Cliff (2/5): - Stayed in room 10 2nd night:- In the evening when we went out, we couldn’t lock our room door. Tried a number of times, in the ned had to leave room unlocked. The next morning 14th tried to call the “emergency duty manager” at 09.30 hrs but no one answered. Left a message about the lock problem. Then rang the reservations number, But no one answered To this day no one has contacted us. Fortunately there was a housekeeper on site changing a room. She helped us by contacting maintenance who came and repaired the room lock Every night we were disturbed by creaking floorboards in room above every time people moved around. In morning woken by creaking floorboards. And when the above rooms shower was used it sounded like a bucket being filled from a hose in our room. Breakfast available for a fee - Doesn’t exist Free self-parking on site - Doesn’t exist. Free off-site parking is on the road outside or a carpark 100yds away. There is no bar. The restaurant / bar was closed a year ago. None of the guest services exist. All the outdoor areas are closed off. There is no communal areas or TV in lobby.
• Lorraine (10/5): - Have a lovely stay, room was lovely & spotless, Tea/Cofee/Shortbread (nice wee touch) also soap, Shamppo & Shower Gel provided, Excellent value for money & great location. Will definitely be back! Thanks
• Joanne (4/5): Very sad, unclean hotel. - Disappointed with this hotel. Despite the blurb on Hotels.com which was the reason I booked this hotel, there was no bar, no restaurant and no one around to help with questions. Our room, room 4, smelled strange on entering it as though it had been locked up for a while. Although the room looked clean it didn't feel clean to me. The blinds at the window were the cheap type and the pulley snapped off when trying to adjust the blind for more light. We fixed it though but it was annoying to have to spend time doing this. The sheets on the bed, while they looked clean, didn't feel fresh against our skin on sleeping. What I found strange about the hotel was that the restaurant was all closed up, the bar too, a locked door through which you could see a bar with stacked chairs etc. It felt eerie. If I had been a woman on my own I would have felt strange and would probably have left. The check in time was 4pm (not usual) and the check out time was 10am (too early!!). There was no place at the hotel to have breakfast, except in the town so we left and went to the Bridge of Allen for breakfast. The communal areas of this hotel were tired, grotty and not clean. The bed was ok but not overly wonderful. I stay in hotels all the time due to my work and this hotel, sadly, felt very sub-par to me. Dunblane is a lovely little town, quiet, quaint and sweet and very pretty. This hotel need a complete overhaul & a hotel reception with staff would add to the experience. It felt very lonely there.
• Rebecca (10/5): - Spotless & very quiet room hot and comfortable very recommendable been here twice and will definitely come back
• Mark (4/5): - Be careful booking this property some of the rooms are across the road above the local pub. Bed was old and needs to be replaced, bar crowd stood on street under our window until 0100…no sleep.
• Catherine (10/5): - We highly recommend. Great location and everything spot on
• Scott (8/5): - The room itself was very clean and nice. The area around was spectacular. Our room was right above a local pub and facing the cathedral.
• Brian (10/5): - Lovely overnight stay
• Caroline (10/5): Amazing visit to Dunblane - What a brilliant find! Amazing view of the Cathedral from the room. Food was great in the restaurant and the included breakfast was fantastic. Room was very comfortable and I parked right outside the door. Dunblane is beautiful too! I would stay again!
• Chaz (10/5): - Just what was required
• Norman (6/5): Good location beside cathedral - Good location on a quiet street with ample free parking nearby. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The entrance stairs and hallway look very tired and not very clean which was not very welcoming. There was a very strong smell of cooking from the kitchen at the check in area. The room was very basic and grey monotone- the shower room was very basic and tired looking with a broken light fitting. The bed was large and clean but the mattress was very uncomfortable and should have been replaced. We had dinner which was very good and staff were very attentive. Breakfast was very limited in choice for Continental selection although cooked breakfast was ok.
• Philip (8/5): - very nice location right next to the cathedral. breakfast was excellent. room was small but comfortable
• Jill (10/5): - A hotel without its own restaurant!
• Gayle (10/5): Overnighter - Great stay from check in to check out. Room spacious and clean. Service great at check in quick and easy and breakfast tasty
• Olivia (10/5): - An adorable find at a great price. Wanted a place to explore the Stirling area from, and this place made us love Dunblane the best out of anywhere else! The room is simple and decently comfortable, and the amenities are certainly fine. Definitely has a bit of a countryside feel to it - had to ask a friendly chap about how to actually get into our place as we were in the annexe. For the insanely good price though, I'd have settled for much worse! Oddly, one of the best features was the breakfast! It is simple, and only really has two options (other than the standard cereals and drinks available from a buffet table) but the quality of the food is weirdly insanely good. It's not Michelin star or anything, but it is hearty, filling and actually tastes good, unlike hundreds of other hotel breakfasts we've had. We ate it each morning and it was the perfect way to start out day. Great place, cheap price and absolutely adorable location.
• Paul (8/5): Beautiful Chimes annex - Stayed at annex called Chimes,on other side of Cathedral,beautiful old house,but sadly for me too many stairs(my fault for not checking when booked) Also not at front of house so no cathedral view,I’ll make sure next time. Spacious big room,lovely big bathroom,enjoyed my stay as usual
• Jacqueline (10/5): Great find - Was't our first time staying and it was as good as the other 3 times, a lovely hotel
• Finlay (8/5): Poor meal - Clean room, comfortable bed, bathroom fine, comfortable chairs in room. Unfortunately, the meal in MBK was extremely disappointing. I ordered rib eye - run out. So they recommended sirloin. I asked for it cooked to my specification. It was cremated and very very tough. They didn't charge me as I hadn't eaten anything. But disappointing nevertheless.
• Steven (10/5): Excellent - Great location to walk around Dunblane. Excellent courtyard beer garden.
• Justin (10/5): Good value, perfect for a night or two. - Very straightforward contactless check in. Bathroom door gets stuck which could be alarming for kids.
• Donna (8/5): - Self check in. Thankfully everything was ok as no staff about had we needed them. Breakfast choice was poor. Cooked or nothing. Hopefully it'll be back to standard after restrictions are abolished.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Was in an ideal location in walking distance to pubs, eateries river walks etc. My only critique is the breakfast was a little stingey. With no buffet breakfast due to covid they plated for you and half a black pudding is no use to anyone. Im a big lad and can handle a whole slice and more than one little sausage.
• Connie (6/5): Disappointed in Annexe - Was disappointed being put in the annexe and having to walk across to main building for both meals. Bedroom was a bit tired with an uncomfortable bed!
• Pauline (10/5): Two night stay to visit family - We stayed here for two nights to allow us to visit family. Self check in due to Covid worked well. Room well presented and all amenities in good order. Bed very comfortable. House keeping left a trolley in landing to allow people to collect additional towels etc. We are in the restaurant one night and the food was lovely. Recommend the haggis Bon bons. Breakfast both mornings was well organised and food of great standard. Outstanding value and great base to explore the city and surrounding areas.
• Hugh (10/5): enjoyale stay - Really nice stay. Lovely breakfast and close to town centre.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - I had 2 nights in Dunblane, first night in the Chimes above the Tapped Hen, i didnt realise i would be away from The Old Coach Inn, we were put in a room, right at the very top of the building, and as im disabled, struggled with all those stairs, but it was a gift, and didnt realise my friend didnt book us into disabled, The following night i had booked a disabled room, it made a big difference to my hips and knees, i was on the same level as the dining room. We just loved the village and hope to book at some point in better weather.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - We had small twin room, but we knew that before we went and were not disappointed. The place was spotlessly clean and everything we needed. We certainly plan on using Old Churches Houses again.
• The (8/5): - The Staff where lovely. The room however was small and not what we had booked. The window and blind area was rather grubby and could be cleaned better.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - The old churches house is a lovely place stay and the staff couldn’t be more helpful. Service was excellent and the good just as impressive. Would definitely recommend this place.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Fantastic small hotel, rooms were nicely decorated and staff very welcoming. I have no hesitation in recommending this hotel for your stay. Breakfast was also good.
• David (8/5): Excellent - No complaints clean good breakfast convenient parking
• Verified traveler (10/5): - nice and quite pillows were comfortable and you dont sink straight through them
• Michael (10/5): - Great place to stay. We think Dunblane is a lovely place to visit.
• Verified traveler (6/5): - All staff very welcoming and helpful.....food excellent.....room very small, bed rather hard but very clean. Excellent location beside Cathedral. Enjoyed our short visit and would certainly use this hotel again.
• Nigel (8/5): Lovely hotel with great food and staff - Did not get the rooms we had booked due to information not been relayed to the hotel, so rooms on the small side Fantastic staff, great food and very clean would stay here again
• A (10/5): - Located directly opposite the cathedral so an impressive view out of the window. Great restaurant, I really enjoyed the food. The tea cakes in the room were a nice touch! Powerful shower a plus too.
• Maureen (8/5): Quirky, but nice! - Hotel is in a convenient location right opposite the beautiful Dunblane Cathedral with parking right outside on the street. My room was comfortable and perfect for a 1 night stay before a conference the following day. Breakfast is included in the price and is adequate.
• Elizabeth (10/5): Lovely hotel with excellent service - Lovely hotel/B&B, excellent service and location. Food and drink excellent also.
• ELLEN D. (8/5): A comfortable base for exploring central Scotland - Old Churches House and Dunblane were the perfect central location from which to explore Central Scotland. The hotel is located within a 15 minute walk of the train station which was our main source of transportation. The rooms, although small, are comfortable. No closet for hanging clothes, but plenty of hooks with a few hangers. Bathroom and shower were nice. Mattress was a bit hard, but pillows were comfortable. Breakfast was exceptional. We had dinner there the first night and found it to be quite good. Food is well-prepared and artfully presented. Dunblane is a delightful little town. I wish we had reserved more time to explore it.
• Eamonn (10/5): Lovely little in town hotel - Staff were super friendly and helpful. Rooms were compact but very nicely done and the overall style was really nice. I like this hotel and would stay again if I was in the area.
• Harry (8/5): - Excellent value for money break for bed and breakfast
• Alison (10/5): Excellent - Great stay & breakfast
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Quaint, clean, interesting property. Nice, cozy restaurant, very friendly staff.
• Dave (10/5): Cosy rooms in the centre of Dunblane - We were in the annex. Cosy, clean, comfortable, very good breakfast. Excellent friendly staff. Suggested improvements: a mirror over the dressing table, heat and a shaver point in the shower room. But these a minor points- we really enjoyed our stay, would definitely stay there again and looking forward to trying the restaurant next time.
• Anne (8/5): Very comfortable hotel. - Very convenient for town centre. , With various pubs, shops and eateries. Staff very helpful and friendly. Hope to visit again in the future.
• Verified traveler (8/5): Great location, comfortable beds and great breakfa - Stayed one night for a wedding at the cathedral so was an ideal location as could literally see it from our bedroom window. Comfortable beds, spacious family bedroom with all necessary amenities and very clean. No shortage of hot water and nice strong shower. Breakfast was very good, a nice selection of items and cooked food to order was enjoyable too. Only negative would be the £20 charge for an hour late checkout which seems expensive.
• David (8/5): - A comfortable hotel in a central location.
• Diane (8/5): - We were right on the street but really not a problem. This is an older building but the rooms are quite ok! We were in 2 rooms, one a family room with 3 beds which worked ok for one night. The queen bed in US terms would really be a double. My husband and I stayed in a 2 queen room which are really 2 double beds. Again very ok for us! We were directly across from the Church. Dunblane is a sweet little place. We wish we had more time to stay and explore but we had picked this location to visit Sterling Castle. I would give this property a 4. Breakfast was great and staff was helpful!
• Gwen (6/5): Eat elsewhere - Quaint old building but room we were given as a twin was really only a single. It was only possible to fit in two beds because they were 2'6" instead of usual 3' width. Also floor sloped and this made for uncomfortable . Breakfast was good but dinner the evening of our stay was very disappointing. We opted for entrées and dessert. My friend had three very small lukewarm scallops, a few frozen peas and a little sauce for £7.95 while my grilled halloumi was served stone cold with a little salad, two thin slices for about £6.
• Verified traveler (6/5): Great location - Annexe rooms are basic. Shower was tiny with a shower curtain sticking to you. Lumpy bed. Staff are great accommodating breakfast our early departure
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Lovely hotel with friendly and helpful staff. Will definitely be returning.
• David (6/5): - WiFi wasn’t great in my room so had problems getting access to work folders
• Verified traveler (8/5): Highly recommended hotel in delightful location. - Extremely friendly and helpful staff. Lovely location. Made to feel very welcome. Excellent food and standard of cleanliness. Excellent shower, toiletries, towels etc.Bedroom as stated was small and a little difficult to move about with 2 cases, but imaginative use of space. Would certainly stay there again.
• Tara (8/5): - It is an old inn which lends itself to bathroom challenges. It was comfortable and clean and very nice staff.
• blair (10/5): A perfect place to stay in Dunblane! - This was the second time I have stayed here but a first for my wife , daughter and her son( our grandson). We really enjoyed our stay. The room was good and breakfasts were awesome!
• Verified traveler (10/5): Excellent - Great room and accommodation for family of 5. Very comfortable, great beds, two rooms, good shower, and great breakfast. In a great location and small town.
• Amrik (8/5): Great stay. - Booked a double and two singles. Room had two doubles. Lovely breakfast.
• Verified traveler (4/5): Terrible stay at Old Churches House Hotel - The room given on arrival was appalling. No number on the door so as we were in the annexe, we had to return to the main hotel for location of the room. It was situated behind a door marked private?? The room (No.16) had no wardrobe or drawers only 5 coat hooks with hangers and no bedside lights. The two double sockets were on the skirting board at floor level so it was impossible to plug items in without over bending the flex. There was a kettle but no electrical socket other than the ones on the floor to plug it in which would have been extremely dangerous.The bathroom door was unpainted. In the shower room the window covering was a shower curtain tied in a knot.Certainly nothing like the pictures on the website.We returned to the Receptionist to ask if we could move to the main hotel. She asked a supervisor and instead of coming to speak with us we heard him shout down the corridor that only Room 15 in the annexe was available. We were given keys to inspect the room ourselves. It was marginally better but still did not have wardrobes. There were drawers and better placed electrical sockets. The room did have coat hooks but not hangers for clothes. There was no covering whatsoever on the shower room window and there was a large stain on the carpet. At check out the following morning there was no mention of how our stay was unlike others who checked out at the same time.We feel that Room 16 was just an old room with a bed thrown in. Never ever again.
• Verified traveler (4/5): So disappointing - Arrived at hotel and front door was locked. A sign states the door will automatically lock at 10pm. It was 9.10pm. We eventually found an access door and was greeted by staff who advised we entered through a fire escape door. But the front door was locked I said, it automatically locks they said. I said but it isn’t 10pm. No that’s not correct. The other member of staff advised that it was better late than never! So we were booked in the annexe which is actually across the square and through a door next to the pub. The room we stayed in was akin to a 1970’s B&B. So requires a refit. Also no emergency evacuation plan in the room, however there was one on the landing table for all rooms to share. I’m sure the rooms in the hotel are nice but definitely not the so called annexe.
• mchael (10/5): - problem with window staying open in a hot room otherwise a good place to stay
• Graham (8/5): Good experience - Great but short stay. Excellent facility and great staff. Very good value. Close to Sterling for Wallace Memorial and Sterling Castle.
• Patricia (10/5): Anniversary Treat - We made a last minute decision to go away for our wedding anniversary and came upon the hotel by chance. Dunblane is a lovely place and the hotel is in the right area to be easily located - right across from the Cathedral. We had a small but very comfortable bedroom (our choice) and the staff were welcoming and even treated us to Prosecco when they heard it was our anniversary. The gardens at the back are easily accessible and lots of interesting nooks and crannies including a restored chapel. Food was enjoyable with enough choices to please most
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Had a really nice time and left relaxed.
• abigeal (10/5): Beautiful views well decorated - This B&B was like a hotel from a movie! It’s was beautifully decorated and the view of the church was charming. If I ever find myself in dunblane again I would definitely stay there again!
• Anne (8/5): Dunblane old church house hotel. - Hotel was quaint and spotless. Staff were lovely. Would have liked more of a "continental " choice at breakfast- particularly prepared fresh fruit and natural yogurts.. bar closed at 10pm. Residents lounge opening later with a wee night cap would be good. Comfy beds. Enjoyed it overall. A trip round the cathedral is a must.
• avila (6/5): Good value for money - Good value with very clean rooms, pleasant house keeping staff and a decent breakfast. Staff not firiendly on reception-particularly when leaving as we weren't asked about our stay. It was a bad experience due to lack of sleep as a result of dreadful noise all night long coming from the room next door.
• Fiona (8/5): Scottish escape 2 - Caroline was very professional. The waitress was quite disorganised at dinner. Food exceptional at dinner. Breakfast was a disaster hard poached eggs that tasted of vinegar. Veggie sausage I could not even cut it. Although Caroline got it changed straight away. Not much veggie selection.
• Jacqueline (8/5): Pleasant enough stay. - Our stay at this hotel was ok. The room was fine but lots of noise. People stomping along the corridors and slamming doors. ! No car park at the hotel. Parking is in a car park over the road. Breakfast was good. And the staff were pleasant.
• joan (8/5): Great location, friendly staff. - I did think that my room would have been better if a small wardrobe was installed. It was ok for a short stay for one person using 4 hooks with hangers. But the room felt a bit cluttered even with my few bags, shoes etc on the floor. Also on both mornings I ordered the same item on the breakfast menu and was told it was unavailable as the pancakes had not been delivered. It wouldn't be so hard to make them in the kitchen surely? If they cannot do that then just take the item off the menu.
• Verified traveler (6/5): Great location, shame about the service - Waited over an hour for breakfast before deciding that I'd waited long enough and left. No hot water, no orange juice, no white bread and no cups on the self service. Total joke. Won't be back.
• moira (10/5): Handy for everything in Dunblane. - An excellent place to stay on Dunblane. Very clean and comfortable. Next to Cathedral and handy for everything.
• Malc (8/5): Great Location - A warm friendly welcome awaits you. Room was comfortable with a view of Dunblane Cathedral (worth a visit). Good selection of Scottish gins. Thank you.
• Peter (10/5): Great find - Great find! Great location en route North but would have been good for a longer stay.
• jeanette (10/5): Ideal hotel - went for the Christmas Night in Dunblane, hotel was perfect, position, comfort and service. will definitely return
