Guest Reviews

• Böhme (9/5): - Die Lage zu den Kelpies und Anbindung zur Schnellstraße. Grandioses Personal, groß Zimmer, bequeme Betten., Es ist in einem Industriegebiet. Ein Auto ist Vorraussetzungm
• David (8/5): Comfortable and convenient rest. - The history Nothing
• Lesley (8/5): -
• Mark (9/5): Great clean hotel, nice breakfast - Great location for where I was heading Nice welcome from the staff Room in need of a paint to refresh Previous room was nicer
• Roslin (8/5): Lovely and will stay again. - Its far away fm the city and its a start of my journey. None.
• Mathilde (9/5): -
• christine (8/5): Great location, friendly staff, plenty of parking, great breakfast. - Great location, friendly staff, plenty of parking, great breakfast. Comfortable beds. Slept well. Ideal stop on our way home from Scotland. Friendly reception on checking in and out. The Mira shower control in the bathroom was very hard to twist on. Breakfast had many choices though I’m not sure the egg bread was made with rustic bread as described on the menu. It looked more like white sliced bread was used.
• Nigel (9/5): -
• mylenecheynet (8/5): - Emplacement et tarif correct
• Lesley (7/5): Ideal location with very attentive bar and restaurant staff - The staff were very pleasant The person in the next room was playing music and singing at 05.30am
• Helen (8/5): On average very good just bathroom not very clean although didn’t mention it to staff as too tired and left at 7am - Meal was wonderful. Staff very friendly and helpful Bathroom not very clean
• Milde (10/5): - Neuvěřitelně ochotný personál a výtečná restaurace. Že musíme odjet.
• Julia (8/5): -
• Christine (10/5): -
• Susan (10/5): More than happy to go back again - This is the second time we have stayed here. The food in the restaurant is extremely good The property is decoration is looking tired but it is so busy I don’t see how they can get time to redecorate!
• Christine (10/5): - Great value and convenient location. The staff were very kind and accommodating.
• Mary (10/5): Perfect for our needs. - After two weeks of traveling around Scotland, we chose this location primarily for its close proximity to the airport, as we had an early flight, and were pleased to find such a great place. The hotel is not new but has been well maintained, and has character you don't find in more modern places. The room was spotless, and the bed comfortable. We would particularly like to thank the maintenance man for his quick and pleasant help fixing a problem with our TV. The desk clerk was also competent and friendly. If a microwave and/or a minifridge could be offered in at least some rooms it might be nice, but a key attraction is the low price, so don't do anything to change that!
• Lydia (9/5): Convenient, quiet and comfortable. - Everything Food was ok in restaurant.

• Elmore (9/5): - Double booked by accident Staff sorted refund by next day (thank you)
• Mandy (10/5): Warm and friendly - Very friendly staff. Check-in is smooth and welcoming. The food is amazing. This is my 3rd stay and I’ll definitely be back. 😁 Nothing
• Navigate57434775645 (4/5): Give it a miss - 2nd time staying here. Won’t be staying again. Hotel is a bit tired and that’s okay. The odd bit falling off never bother me. Large family rooms. However I have never been treated so badly in any hotel. Thought I had booked two nights in the family room but I had mistakenly booked only one. Staff did not contact us during the day to say our stuff was still in the room. We returned in the evening and all that was missing from the receptionist was a headscarf and rolling pin. She was so out of order. Her lecturing tone was a disgrace and obviously something that she does really well. We were told that we were lucky they actually had a room for us. I told her that she could have just contacted us during the day to sort it out. However she continued to lecture myself and my two grown up daughters. Then she said quite nastily. “You didn’t pay for last night and you will now have to pay for tonight” I advised her that paying was not an issue as I had already thought I had booked 2 nights. Reception insisted that I had not booked the room direct but that I had used Expedia. I did not use Expedia. My confirmation email came from the ABBOTSFORD. I asked her to refrain from speaking to me like I was a child. As a 65 year old I do not take kindly to being spoken too like that. She however continued on the same vein. In my room I decided to write an email to the manager. He then came to the door. He enforced the fact that by rights they could have packed up our stuff. I said why didn’t you? I would rather stay elsewhere than be spoken too to like a naughty child. He apologised and saidd he would be having words with her. Tried to have a shower but there was no hot water. Whether it was turned off or not who can say. Owner returned to say that I had definitely used Expedia. Which I have never used. So obviously he wasn’t really apologetic. He did however turn the hot water back on when we asked him too. Don’t stay here. I definitely wont be. There is no apology like no apology
• Kimberley (6/5): -
• Janet May (10/5): -
• Gary (9/5): A good resting place for journey into the Highlands. - The convenience of its location and staff were friendly. N/A
• carl (10/5): -
• nicola (10/5): A enjoyable hotel to spend a night in when continuing on your journey - Friendliness, quality of bed and dinner and breakfast were great. No nice outside space to enjoy the sunshine.

• Sonia (10/5): - El personal muy amable
• Helen (9/5): Really enjoyable - Friendly staff. Excellent meals Cosy friendly atmosphere excellent service
• Mick (9/5): Comfortable - Location Evening meals stopped at 2000hrs
• Denise (9/5): Excellent food, staff friendly, room temperature was very comfortable, shower was great. Just such a shame about road no - Restaurant was very nice. Beds were very comfortable Unfortunately our sleep was disrupted by the road noise.
• Desmond (9/5): - Very hospitable staff, friendly and keen to help. The hotel was very clean. The evening meal was good quality with great portions. Breakfast was also great. Building was a bit dated but everything else make up for that. Would definitely stay there again.
• Terry (8/5): -
• Andy (9/5): very good - Breakfast reasonably priced, it was near Dumbarton East station and the restaurant was a good one for the evening meal. In fact the hotel was also the location of the reception for a funeral that we'd come to attend. The staff were very helpful about us leaving our luggage until the reception was over. Nothing really
• John (7/5): A very decent budget hotel. - All staff were helpful and friendly, the lounge and restaurant were both pleasant and welcoming. The food was good and there was a fair selection of beers and spirits. The car park is large and free, and the hotel is conveniently located directly on the A82 with access to Loch Lomond and the north. The hotel is rather old and everything in the room creaks (literally). There is no soundproofing, so you can almost hear people in the next room breathing. The Wi-Fi signal in the main hotel area is good, but in the room I was in it's very poor or (mostly) non-existent.

• Lally (8/5): -
• Mairi (9/5): Good value for money - Room & shower facilities very clean & comfortable Staff helpful & friendly Would have preferred a more tradituonal Scottish menu . No haggis!! American pancakes for breakfast? A wee bit disappointed
• John (9/5): -
• Bowie (7/5): -
• Odette (8/5): Very comfortable - Lovely food, very nice staff, comfortable bed Decor is a bit dated
• Alysha (10/5): -
• Michael (8/5): -
• David (10/5): Enjoyed our stay and would absolutely stay again if I’m ever in Dumbarton. - The Staff were very friendly and helpful. They offered us advice about the local area and helped us arrange a taxi to the location of the party we were attending. The Stoater breakfast in the morning was also excellent. Nothing to report.
• John (10/5): - Friendly cosy atmosphere snd great staff No plug socket at beds
• Sally (9/5): Very Welcoming Place to Stay - We chose this venue because they were hosting our close friends funeral Reception,. It was everything that we expected. Staff went above and beyond, food was excellent and we were made to feel very welcome.
• Joyce (9/5): A comfortable stay. - Convenient location. Spacious rooms. Quiet. Plentiful parking. Breakfast could have been better. Felt a little restricted. Tiny buffet with juices and cereal but no fruit or yoghurt and nothing like that available on the menu either. The items we ordered were ok.
• Gordon (10/5): Abbotsford weekend away. - Stayed here a few times...it is still a great venue. Good food and the bar is open to locals alike. The breakfast is exceptional value especially the signature French toast , but be aware its a big plate of food.I boxed some of mine ,delicious. Room immaculate and for a 3 star hotel above average and the staff are fabulous. Nothing to report!
• Mark (10/5): -
• Nick (9/5): -
• Nina jo (7/5): Served us well for the occasion, value for money im not sure - Very big carpark, well sign posted, great room/bathroom size plenty of room to move around without being under each other’s feet. Very dated (our twin room had a new bathroom, the family room didn’t!) if your above 5ft4 you struggle to fit under the shower head. Beds are very hard, felt like we slept on a wooden block. We were in their function room, they had locked us out of the hotel by 11pm and weren’t answering the doorbell to let us in - the key systems also very date and not hugely secure. £210 for 2 rooms 1 night, no breakfast - given the dated property I’m not sure it’s the best value for money
• Paul (10/5): Very comfortable night, would have liked to be able to stay longer - Friendly and helpful receptionists,good bed, good shower… Not to have just two steps!
• Chiara (9/5): -
• Callum (8/5): -
• Fiona (1/5): Damp, tired building, very budget place - Location was suitable for our journey Damp smelling toilet and corridor, radiator was leaking in the bathroom, I asked for a menu then 10 minutes later told no tables available from the very rude receptionist, spoke to the duty manager and he was cheeky and very unhelpful. I would not stay again and would not recommend to anyone else. The rooms require an upgrade as it is old tired and smelly.
• Isabel (7/5): satisfactory and ticked all the boxes needed for our weekend. - location is perfect, walking distance everywhere and the price is affordable. The shower had a leak and had to move to a different room, but this was sorted very very quickly.
• Marco (8/5): -
• Jacquie (10/5): -
