Stirling Court Hotel

Very good

Liked: Stayed for graduation and there was always parking available for guests which was great. Good breakfast. Good location to walk to the Wallace Monument and Bridge of Allan river walk/station as well as the university. Plenty of busses to town and main station. Nice and quiet room overlooking courtyard

Disappointing

Liked: Good location and good breakfast
Disliked: Unable to have a shower or bath as the tap was locked solid. This was very annoying.

A good stay with a...

Liked: Great facilities. Super clean and nice size bedroom.
Disliked: Unfortunately for us there was a big activity going on that night with around 500 guests and it was noisy. Also the room was very hot and the hotel didn’t have any fans to provide comfort.

Very pleasant

Liked: Beautiful location and room.
Disliked: There was a wedding going on at the seem time and normal guests were treated by the staff as "secondary".

Very good

Great transport links, comfortable enough...

Liked: Transport links were excellent. For a buffet breakfast it was actually pretty good, in that the food seemed to be as freshly cooked as is possible in this situation.The bathroom was decent sized, clean and adequate. Our dinner on our final night was very nice indeed.
Disliked: The plates for the breakfast buffet were in a "warmer" but this never seemed to be switched on, so our breakfast went on to cold plates, meaning it cooled down quickly which was a shame, because it was a nice breakfast. The bed was a bit on the small side, that is, narrow, for a double and the sink in the bathroom was miniscule with a tap over it meaning it was difficult to splash your face when washing. The main issue with the room were the footsteps that paced up and down above our heads until the early hours in the morning, whether it was a guest above who couldn't sleep or a staff room/work area, I'm not sure but it was rather irritating. Dinner was very nice indeed but there was still an advert running on a screen at the bar for a special "two mains for £25" which was apparently over but no date indicated this - as far as I understand this is a breach of advertising law, but the staff we spoke to seemed genuinely upset and frustrated by the fact it was still going and they were really apologetic. As it happened we had intended to have dinner anyway and took it on the chin, other diners may not be so understanding. We were staying five nights, so I felt it would have been reasonable to provide more than one toilet roll, but these were rationed on a daily basis, which seemed unnecessarily time consuming for staff!
