avoid at all costs!!

Liked: nothing
Disliked: The only good thing about this stay was the size of the bedroom due to having our dog with us, other than that the two nights spent here were the most unpleasant out of our 9 day tour round Scotland. The staff were miserable and unhelpful and we felt like we were a hindrance to them just by being there which is an absolute joke because it was the most expensive hotel out of all our stays! The restaurant was closed for the two nights of our stay with no notice of this until we arrived, when I asked where can we go for food the Victor Meldrew behind the counter said he had no idea. Montrose is a ghost town and I would only recommend staying in Montrose if you absolutely had too and even then I would suggest you look for a b&b as you will without doubt get a far better service. The review the hotel has stated about itself is completely unfounded and just leaves a disappointing bitter taste instead and feel I have been hoodwinked into booking this place under false pretences.

Very Good

Liked: Almost everything

Warm and friendly hotel in...

Liked: We had a lovely time in this warm and friendly hotel. All the staff we met were very friendly and helpful. The room itself was spacious and decorated to a high standard and very clean. We had an evening meal in the restaurant which was one of the best meals we?ve had and the breakfast the following morning was also excellent. I recommend trying the Arbroath Smokie.Montrose is a fine town and a perfect base to explore the stunning Angus countryside. The hotel is situated in a quiet area and within walking distance from the beach. We were fortunate to see dolphins on our visit there. I hope to return in the near future and would certainly recommend the hotel to others.

For the star rating of...

Liked: nice room, excellent staff.
Disliked: I found a bit of plastic in my food. I know it was just an accident from some packaging but it wasn?t nice. I think the kitchen was struggling because the main chef was off ill. Didn?t get any shower gel. in fact the toiletries were poor.
