The Grange Manor

Very good

Rather dated, most staff members...

Liked: We were there for a wedding and everything about it from organisation to service and professionalism of the staff was excellent. One particular member of staff, Archie, was worthy of a special mention, though all the staff on the day were friendly and obliging.
Disliked: The TV in our room wasn't working and when I asked at reception about this was met with a frosty glare, though a member of staff was sent up to the room and when we returned the TV was operable. We had to search for the tea and coffee making facilities that were stashed in an unmarked cupboard.The mattress was far too soft for our liking.In the evening, water pressure in the shower was very low though it did improve in the morning.We had the breakfast, which was served until 10.00am. On arrival in the restaurant at 9.50am the first thing the member of staff did was look at her watch!! We were then shown to our table. .The cooked breakfast was average both in terms of content, presentation and quality. The bacon was unedible due to it being too salty.

Perfectly located for visiting several...

Liked: Staff was very friendly and helpful, arranging a table in the restaurant for me both nights. It was possible to book breakfast for only 1 day, since the other day I had to leave before breakfast. The room itself was very quiet, spacious and comfortable. The breakfast was amazing, friendly staff again, and very accommodating. The Kelpies really are about 10-15 minutes walking. Other sights are within driving distance. Free parking, plenty of space.
Disliked: Nothing comes to mind!

Exceptional

Superb

Perfect for a short overnight...

Liked: Beautiful building. Large parking. Very good breakfast.
Disliked: Room was warm (of course due to the 5 day Scottish summer) but leaving the windows open at the side of the street was noisy.

Very good

Liked: Nice clean and good sized rooms. All amenities available.
Disliked: Pints from bar inside hotel didn't taste the best compared to that from restraunt. No main light in bedroom just a lamp.

No shampoo and shower gel?

Liked: Spacious room.
Disliked: No shampoo or shower gel in the bathroom!!No coffee or tea in the room. The minute we left we found them “hidden” in the closet (closet that we did not use)!! What’s the point of putting them there, and not telling us at check in?
