Guest Reviews
- rachel (10/5): - I received an email from the host with accurate check-in information 1 day prior to check in. The breakfast was very minimal with toast being the only hot food offered. The windows in the room opened, allowing a nice breeze. The bed was soft and moderately comfortable. The view of the Sterling streets was nice and the property is within a 15 minute walk of the sterling castle. Be advised of spiral staircases making it difficult to get luggage larger than carry-on size up to the room.
- Gerald (6/5): - Mediocre at best. Most disappointing stay in our 14day Scotland trip. We did not receive a code to enter building and after 20 minutes we were fortunate someone came to enter. No breakfast included unless you booked directly not through Expedia. Never came across this before at a bed n breakfast. I would not recommend this highly as there are so many more lovely places to stay.
- David (8/5): - Nice enough. Was sent check in codes ahead of arrival, and no real problems there although communication from hotel could be a bit better on this, as implied I would get charged extra for arriving after 7pm to check. Room had an enormous wardrobe located in such a way couldn't open either room door or bathroom door fully. More bizarrely no coathangers in wardrobe, so effectively useless.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Such a cozy, comfortable stay in a wonderful location central to everything. The hosts were so friendly and pleasant. What a gem!
- Lorraine (10/5): - Great location. Easy walk to train/bus. Cool medieval/castle property. Nicely furnished. Small but comfortable room. Ensuite bathroom very nice and all immaculately clean. Host/owner is very friendly. I ordered the light breakfast which was excellent in a beautiful dining room. There is also a very pretty back courtyard. I was able to store luggage for the day.
- seiko (10/5): - I have little trouble for self check in because the front door was hard to open. Beside that, I have wonderful time to stay there
- Tony (4/5): Great location for exploring Stirling - Property location was perfect for exploring Stirling. Check-in was quite stressful. Couldn't park outside, lots of stairs to climb with our luggage, and we were given a door code but not a room number. Parking at Wellgreen was £4 overnight, not £2.50 as stated. Room was sizeable with a really good view, and facilities were fine, but bed was uncomfortable. Host was friendly and very helpful when I explained the stressful check-in, and also gave good advice on where to go in Stirling.
- Charles (10/5): Cozy and Convenient - We found our small double to be as advertised SMALL, but cozy. Jackie and her staff were accommodating and breakfast was delicious. The location was ideal for those who like to walk around an old walled city and there were many dining options nearby
- Ginette (10/5): - Great location near the main downtown.
- PAUL (10/5): Fantastic service and location - great accomodation in a fantastic city centre location. a lot of attention to detail from owners and breakfast was excellent. would highly recommend and will stay again
- Michael (10/5): Our stirling stay - Ideally situated. Owners and staff were warm and inviting. Nothing was a trouble to them. Highly recommended.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - The location was incredible, walkable to everywhere you need to go. The breakfast was delicious and the view from the room was absolutely beautiful! The staff we met were very friendly and extremely helpful. We’d stay here again in a second!
- Jane (6/5): Great host but rooms need some work - Our host Jackie graciously helped us with our early breakfast requirement and we were able to get to our flight out of Edinburgh in plenty of time. Great location, but the room needs some updating. Bed creaked very loudly at any tiny movement and the shower had an unpleasant smell unfortunately.
- JoAnn (8/5): - It would be helpful to tell guests in advance that they will have to find parking on the street which is very limited and there is a charge for parking so they have the correct coins to do so. Also lots of stairs to climb to get to your room.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Early on arrival we made a call and Jackie arrived within minutes. Property is clean and tidy and the breakfast which was supplied gave an excellent choice. Property is in an ideal situation for all town centre amenities and on the whole in a quiet area of the town. We arrived in Stirling by train from Glasgow and had an easy ten minute walk from the Railway Station though I would imagine parking would be a problem. The one draw back was the size of the room which was listed as a double with an ensuite and garden view and in truth is a single with a double bed in it. This meant that it was impossible to exit the bed on one side without climbing over the other occupant! I acknowledge some fault in the room selection as the size in sq. ft. is given in the room description but this I missed. This room is also situated by the main entrance door so we were disturbed by other occupants returning late though this is hardly the fault of the property or it's owners as there are requests for residents to consider others. All in all a great City to visit and enhanced by a great day out at the final day of the Solheim Cup at Gleneagles, if you're European of course (and at this point we still were!)
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Small and old, but charming and had everything we needed. Fantastic views and location. Host was suoer helpful.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Great location near the castle and town. Pub right next door. Private bath across hallway was a bit inconvenient but very spacious. Parking inconvenient.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Property is in the heart of Sterling, easy to walk anywhere. Historical interesting building. Up 3 flights of stairs, impossible for me to carry luggage. Someone helped at check in but no one to help at check out. Rude and totally unhelpful woman owner. Would not stay there again
- Verified traveler (8/5): Conveinent - No elevator. Breakfast good!
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Part of the Castle wall, great walking area, Owners were very nice!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Very unique B & B in a unique city. Staff were great. Room was comfortable and clean. Breakfasts were amazing. Would stay here again.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - I great place to base yourself in Stirling. Had a great time and the view was lovely
- Verified traveler (8/5): - It wad a full flight of stairs just to get to the property. Then we were on the top floor so we had to climb two more steep flights.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Location is great and the breakfast was delicious. Only downside is parking in the area. We were fortunate that someone was leaving a paid parking space as we were looking for a space. We made sure to check-out in the morning before we would be required to pay again for parking.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - It's entrance is on the old city wall limits so it's on a bit of historical land with views to die for. I was there for the Marathon and this B&B couldn't be better situated for this. 5 min walk from the train station. 10 min walk from/to the start/finish line.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - The location was fabulous, the updating of this historic place was tasteful and complete. The breakfast was individually prepared and the coffee came as personal French press. The owners were gracious and personable, giving suggestions tailored to our interests and time.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Delighted B&B. And close to great restaurants for the evening meal. The breakfast at Castle Walk was great. Loved the service from Jackie and Adrian. Would highly recommend this B&B Ann
- Verified traveler (10/5): - It’s locarion was excellent. The bed covers were dusty.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Stay was enjoyable. Staff very attentive. Unfortunately there was a mix up with my checkout day and I ended up checking out late. Waitress was very helpful in finding a different place for 1 night. However I just got a surprise charge for L30 on my credit card.
- Arlene K (10/5): Our stay at Castle Walk - Friendly and a great location. If one does not do stairs , then this is not good. Great location for restaurants. Good wifi. Not all rooms are on suite but you get a privatre bathroom. Good breakfast. Hotrel is right on the castle wall. There is no private parking but hotel owner was very helpful in finding us a parking space and parked his car there until we could park. It just was a short distance. You need to pay to park. He also told us about a parking garage. Check in time is 4:00. We were early and no one was there but we had a phone # and we called and someone came to let us in and helped us to find a parking place. The only thing not listed was the correct gps directions which should list 4 Back Walk. We had to call to get this information. With this information it took us directly there.
- Tim (6/5): - Small room and cramped, 3 flights of stairs to get to our room. Convenient location close to shops, attractions, and trains
- Corie (10/5): - I loved the property! The staff is fantastic! Everything is very clean and quite updated. Breakfast was great! Location was ideal. I have nothing negative to say about it.
- Bill (10/5): Great location. Great town. - Guesthouse was in a great location. Very lovely. Our room was a bit small. But bathroom was quite large. Hostess was v Dry informative and friendly.
- Verified traveler (4/5): - Breakfast did not start until 8am which I was not aware before I booked.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Excellent service, breakfast, beds, location. Lots of info about surrounding areas. This B&B is not recommended for people with mobility challenges. There's a long flight of stairs to the front door and another one up to the breakfast room.
- Elise (8/5): - The staff was outstanding, very friendly and helpful. They even let us drop our bags off hours early. The biggest problem was that there was no space to put a suitcase other than the bed. The decor was tacky but it was made up for by the excellent breakfast, convenient location and kindness of the hosts.
- Cynthia (8/5): Nice accommodations! - Nice accommodations with attentive hosts. Excellent breakfast! Great location to activities and Stirling Castle.
- stuart (8/5): Would stay again - Good location good breakfast room small but typical for an historical building
- Jon (8/5): Nice place in a good location - Great location, half way between the train station and the castle, and close to good restaurants. Very interesting and unique building. Very nice couple running the B&B. I talked to them at length and they were friendly and helpful. The downside is that the interior needs updating, which the couple says they are in the process of doing (as they took over the B&B earlier this year). If/when we return to Stirling, we will stay here again.
- scott (10/5): easy place to stay - Friendly staff, Great views, comfy and quiet.
- Samantha (10/5): - This B&B has only been open for about a year and they are doing a great job with trying to do it right! They are very friendly and helpful. The nice little touches around the B&B to make you feel comfortable show they put in thought and care for your stay.
- cathy (10/5): Lovely B & B - The location couldn’t be better - close to town centre and walking distance to Stirling Castle. The owners were friendly and couldn’t do enough for us. The room was clean and comfortable with all necessary amenities and a great view over the city. Breakfast was excellent, and cooked to order. There is a good pub next door, and many restaurants and cafes within walking distance. Will definitely return on our next visit to Stirling!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Great location. Very comfortable room and hearty breakfast. Staff friendly too.
- Larissa (10/5): - Friendly and accommodating owners and staff. I was especially thankful that they let me stash my packs both before check-in and after check-out. Also, the convenient location can’t be beat!
- G (10/5): Cozy, very scenic location - Newly refutbished, Very nice, in city walls near city centre
- Phillip (8/5): Great location - We checked in before the official check-in time which was really nice but we were initially checked into the wrong room but this was sorted quickly. The location is great, actually on the town walls and right in the middle of Stirling and the staff were friendly. Breakfast was hectic to say the least, there are only a limited amount of tables and only a small window to have breakfast in. Overall very nice though.
- Shannon (10/5): Historic house - Check in was a breeze, but there are a LOT of stairs! When they found out we would be gone before breakfast, they told us they'd have a take-away breakfast ready for us in the morning. Walking distance to some good restaurants and pubs, but when we returned the door key would not open our door! The proprietors were very quick to come and remedy the situation though, and got us a key that worked. The coffee the next morning was fantastic!
- Lyn (8/5): - As an older building built into the wall of the city there are quite a few stairs to manage. Breakfast was very good and outlook from room very pleasing. Very easy walk into town
- Hovs (10/5): - We felt right at home — the staff are so helpful and friendly. Nice, hearty breakfast. Really good location.
- Laura (8/5): Guest house with a lovely back garden - the accommodation was easy to find, Parking is a challenge but manageable. It is centrally located. There are plenty of restaurants nearby and the old city is just blocks away, in fact the guest house is built into the wall of the old city. The rooms were small but clean and comfortable.
- Wendy (10/5): Great location and value for money - Stirling is beautiful and this bed and breakfast is located right in the heart of things. It was perfect for us as it was a short walk from the station and a bus ride from the university. Great pizzeria and Indian a stones throw away. Our room had a lovely view and beautiful furnishings. Tunnocks Tea cakes a great touch. Breakfast delicious and host very friendly and helpful. Highly recommended.
- Kathy (10/5): Beautiful B&B with incredible view! - Lovely historical site, very friendly and helpful staff and great location! Parking was the only issue - ended up quite far down the street after having to back down the steep driveway onto a busy street after checking in.
- Anonymous (8/5): - Nice hotel in a good central location. Very good walks from here including castle (ten minutes uphill). Five to ten minute walk from public transport to other Stirling tourist spots. Good location for shops, restaurants and pubs. Room was good size for one guest but would be tight squeeze for two. Staff were very pleasant.
- Nicole (8/5): - Staff was amazing. Went out if their way to take care of us when my son wasn't feeling well.
