Stranraer hotellia

Plussat: Pool and sauna. Watching the Curling. Parking. Central. Breakfast very good.

Plussat: The quality of the meals and the suite accomodation.

Plussat: The room and bed was lovely the shower was great we didn't have breakfast or dinner so couldn't comment on that but we did have toasties and they were really nice

Miinukset: There wasn't much to do

Plussat: Very friendly and helpful staff.

Miinukset: Bed was a bit smaller than we are used to.

Plussat: Choice of Restaurant facilities very good. Excellent food though choices for vegetarians limited.

Miinukset: Facilities showing there age, musty smell in some areas of the hotel. No ramp at entrance to hotel so lugging heavy cases difficult.

Plussat: Staff were all lovely and friendly

Miinukset: The hotel is very old and very dated, rooms smell old and damp and the pool area is very run down, changing rooms were damp and smelly, we paid to stay for the night but refused to stay and after speaking to staff we were given a full refund. This hotel could be so much better if it’s brought up to date.

Plussat: Location/luxury/facilities/food/parking/room with sea view

Miinukset: Basic request not met. e.g asked for ice for the room but couldn't get ice bucket

Plussat: Excellent breakfast

Miinukset: Dinner portions could have been greater. Other diners seemed to be filling up on the sour dough bread too.

Plussat: Location, very picturesque and remote.

Miinukset: Ever so slightly dated in some areas

Plussat: Everything! Lovely, friendly staff. Beautiful, comfortable room. Fab food.

Miinukset: Leaving!! Another night would have been better. Only one complaint - I notified the hotel before we arrived to make them aware that I couldn’t eat mushrooms & was disappointed to find mushrooms on my chicken dish even though they hadn’t been mentioned on the menu. Fortunately my husband noticed and managed to remove them.

Plussat: Everything! Great hotel, quiet, comfortable with great views out to sea. Staff are helpful and knowledgable. Decor is understated, food is excellent. Breakfast sets you up for the day.

Plussat: The decor, the comfy lounges, the warmth, the breakfast. The dinner was well organised and presented, tho light. The positioning of the house is exceptional - walking down to the beach was a joy.

Miinukset: Felt the room was too expensive for what it was - it was just a small, ordinary room

Plussat: location, food, service, view.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Just simply amazing with fabulous food by an obviously very talented chef who should be recognised and a beautiful - get away from it all location. Bedroom was elegant and sophisticated with with great staff. What more could you ask for. I can’t wait to return. Thanks for everything.

Miinukset: See above

Plussat: Wonderful service, couldn't do enough for us. Breakfast here will always be memorably as first time we tried haggis.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Very professional, excellent breakfast.

Miinukset: N/a

Plussat: In light of the current pandemic we were very grateful to be so well hosted at this property. Staff were lovely and we wish them well in the current uncertain landscape. Will definitely stay here again!

Plussat: Lovely hosts, really comfy rooms and a good brekkie

Plussat: We were on the early ferry and needed a place to stay the night before. The hotel is situated right on the seafront with free parking on the road outside. The host was very welcoming and advised us where to go and eat. Always a must. Breakfast the next morning was excellent. Cooked to order. It was excellent value for money too

Miinukset: There was nothing to not like

Plussat: Very pleasant, clean and comfortable. Lovely helpful host.

Miinukset: We couldn’t stay longer

Plussat: Lovely room, nice shower and a delicious breakfast.

Miinukset: N/A

Plussat: Welcome was excelent with information on local eating places with nice touch in provision of small extras with good presentation. breakfast was good.

Plussat: The service was brilliant.

Plussat: the owners where very friendly, there was a choice of breakfast which was very nice and the views from the guest house were also very good. The rooms were far better than expected and very very comfortable.

Plussat: Extremely friendly greeting from the owners. They did not hesitate to make us feel comfortable and went out of their way to provide us with the information we required to get around Stranraer and Scotland. If you want a quant, clean & very comfortable guest house in this part of the UK, then this is the place. Our weather was perfect... clear blue skies, no wind, a bit cool and the perfect conditions for our channel crossing to Belfast on the HSS Stena.

Miinukset: The shops not being open on Sunday whilst we walked around Stranraer waiting for the ferry trip to Belfast at 2.30pm.

Plussat: B&B was very clean and the staff very welcoming

Plussat: Comfortable bed and all very clean and cosy. Able to park right outside chalet and short walk into town. Very warm and friendly greeting from owner.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Great location for getting ferry to Ireland - very helpful staff

Plussat: This was our second stay, and we have already booked again. The property is a no frills, small chalet behind a pub. The pub only operates at weekends, so the premises are quiet. The chalets are set back from the road so traffic noise is minimal. The chalet had all that we needed including free parking, free wi-fi that worked well, tea/coffee making and a decent bathroom with piping hot water. The Cairnryan ferry terminals are just over 10 minutes drive away. The town is barely 5 minutes walk and has supermarkets and restaurants. The owner is very helpful and welcoming. Don't expect a palace, but the accommodation is ideal for people passing through the port.

Miinukset: Nothing negative to say. Not related to the accommodation, but if returning to Scotland on the late ferry, take note that there are no obvious late night filling stations between Stranraer and Dumfries, so top up before boarding the ferry.

Plussat: We arrived very late at night, but the owner was on hand and very friendly and welcoming, check in was easy, there was plenty of parking and the room was absolutely spotless. The bed was very comfortable and we had everything we needed for an excellent price. We left very early to catch the Larne ferry, which is only a short drive away and very easy to get to. We would definitely stay here again.

Miinukset: Everything was great.

Plussat: Excellent welcome from Sandi and gave great advice on area for eating and drink

Plussat: Warm friendly welcome very clean and fresh room.

Miinukset: The shower didn't work only like warm even when on full heat. Toilet seat broken and moves.. room was cold when we arrived but did eventually warm up

Plussat: You can park the car literally in front of your room door. Friendly host

Miinukset: The showerhead didn't have pressure. In the bathroom it was coled, it was breeze coming from the extractor fan.

Plussat: The staff were extremely helpful and nothing was too much trouble. Traditional Scottish breakfast seved hot and on time

Miinukset: Size of bathroom particularly the wash hand basin

Plussat: place was clean breakfast good

Miinukset: very basic

Plussat: I was very pleased with the staff and the chalet I stayed in small but very comfortable with TV and teamaking facilities. The breakfast was excellent typically Scottish breakfast and would recommend to anyone.

Plussat: The room was basic, but clean and comfortable, staff very nice and helpfull, nice breakfast. We really enjoyed our stay at the hotel

Plussat: Clean and comfortable. Would stay again.

Miinukset: Rooms a bit "dated" and my chalet window was broken and did not shut fully. Also, walls are thin and visitors next door turned up at 1.40am and made a hell of a row!

Plussat: Cheap, and near the ferry port we were travelling to.

Miinukset: It was quite grubby and has a very tired decor. The door lock fell off and wasnt working properly. The breakfast was very greasy and seemed very cheap. The louge where we ate seemed dirty and there were lots of flies buzzing around. There was no real check out process. Presence of any staff was lacking. It was the most uncomfortable bed we have ever slept in.

Plussat: Very quiet location, very friendly staff,very large clean room with comfortable beds.Very handy for the ferry. Wonderful breakfast!

Miinukset:

Plussat: Friendly, Eager to please

Miinukset: Nothing! Excellent hotel!

Plussat: Just love the place xx

Plussat: The food was ok

Miinukset: Rooms small and needing updated en-suite was from a seventies movie no staff to serve breakfast had to enter the kitchen and ask the chef to serve us.Very difficult to get served in the public bar staff busy serving else where

Plussat: Lovely place just outside seaside . Atmosphere was nice . Food was amazing

Plussat: The staff are brilliant

Plussat: Food

Miinukset: Very friendly staff and great food and location.

Plussat: Great location and friendly staff

Plussat: Very disappointed in the room for what we paid for it. We could have had a nicer, bigger more modern room in a hotel with facilites for the same money....rather than the "room in a pub" which it was. Food was just okay...and choice of breakfast poor. Sorry but we won't be back.

Miinukset: Paid extra for a "queen room" with a sea view. Yes it was a queen bed....but the room was so small and had dormer style window and we had to duck our heads to get round the bed! Bathroom was very tired and looked unclean because it needed updated. The resturant menu had a limited choice if you aren't a fish lover. The vegetables were very aldente and there were very few prawns in the dish my husband had. Breakfast was disappointing too. No choice of juice....only orange. Fresh fruit as described on the menu was a few rather withered looking prices in a bowl. 6 yogarts to choose from. I asked for flora or some kind of spread instead of butter....and was told it was butter only. My husband had a cooked breakfast which was very nice looking.

Plussat: Bed great

Miinukset: We book for dinner with friends as it was my wife's birthday, room was cold, food was poor,plates were cold,prices sky high, breakfast was the same, won't be back.

Plussat: Friendly staff. Great views.

Plussat: Everything the room was lovely the bed was comfy the food was delicious and the staff were all very nice and made you feel so welcome to be there .I would gladly come here again

Miinukset: Nothing

Miinukset: Needs updating

Plussat: The food was first class, I will go back to sample more of the menu

Plussat: Staff were very friendly and accommodating. Fantastic location and view of the Harbour.

Miinukset: Unfortunately the room was a little disappointing. Lack of power in the shower, crack in the sink. Shaver charger not working. Windows not fully sealed so noisy from outside. Springs felt coming through in the mattress. Poor selection of red wine only 2/5 Basic food menu though tasty. Strange rugs in bar area looked dirty.

Plussat: Breakfast

Miinukset: The room wasn't even in the Hotel ,it was a tiny attic up 3 flights of stairs in an apartment building next door . Informed manager that this was not acceptable, eventually moved us to another hotel but could only have 2 nights ! Would not refund us for the 3rd night as we had paid in advance !!

Plussat: Staff were friendly and welcoming. Room and bed were comfy. Breakfast was hot and plentiful and we really enjoyed it. Also we had dinner in restaurant with friends and we all enjoyed-good selection to choose from. Location was excellent.

Miinukset: Only observation I would like to make, and it’s not a complaint, was that the bathroom towel rail was scalding hot and could potentially be harmful, particularly to a child. I meant to mention to the staff before we checked out but I forgot.

Plussat: food was excellent cost of room was great value

Plussat: Staff were great and friendly.

Miinukset: Had to ask for clean towels as room wasn't cleaned. I understand it's a quiet time but I do expect my room to be cleaned, bed made etc. Too much fancy food at fancy prices. Need to include some down to earth dishes on the menu.

Plussat: Stunning setting.

Miinukset: Food not allowed in room.

Plussat: lovely room very spacious and great view.

Plussat: The hotel was beautifully decorated throughout and very comfortable. My wife and I were warmly greeted and very well looked after. Dinner was really excellent and breakfast was very good. The service throughout was friendly, cheerful and efficient. We had booked on a Dinner, Bed and Breakfast package which was excellent value for money and we will make a point of staying at the Torrs Warren hotel again.

Plussat: Exceptional value for money, although we were on a special dinner, bed and breakfast basis. Close to Cairnryan port: we stayed the night before travelling to Ireland. Dinner menu was great as was our server.

Miinukset: Room was a little cold, although there was an extra heater so easily sorted. Limited choice of draft beers. Continental breakfast choice was also limited, although cooked was great.

Plussat: Great location, right on the waterfront although our room was facing the side street. Big comfortable bed. Restaurant food and breakfast we're very good. Definitely great value for money.

Miinukset: We were booked into Waterfront but ended up being moved to it's sister hotel a few buildings down the road. The place feels a little dated. The pub didn't have great choices (no local beers at all).

Plussat: Everything about Blinkbonnie was excellent. Great location, Friendly owners, exceptionally clean and breakfast great. We have already booked for next year and that says it all.

Plussat: The cleanliness. Unfortunately for me there was a strong smell of room freshner in our room which affected my breathing but at least there were windows to open but the smell still too strong. The bed had a protruding end of a few inches which was sharp... just at knee height .....as there was not much room to walk around the bed my husband knocked his knee twice on it and is now still in bed with a badly swollen knee .

Miinukset: To cut off the piece of wood protruding from the end of the bed so other guests won't knock themselves. The mattress could have been more comfortable
