Night away
Overall very nice stay. Was hard in the dark to find the entrance as not well lit. Was bit strange to have £50 taken from my card on arrival. Never been asked for that before and stayed in a lot of places. Takes a few days to return to card after stay apparently. The hotel itself is nice inside. comfortable. Nice staff members. WiFi was shocking even with TV on as advised. Kept cutting off. Reported this on feedback card and at reception on departure..

Expedia need to inform hotels that gold awardees may be given a room update. Room quite cool on arrival. Heater brought to help but was totally ineffective blowing cold air. Restaurant very busy, service suffered as a consequence. Not what one expected.

Cool and cosy
Cosy and comfortable stay when attending an event at Royal Highland Centre. Room was very comfortable and public areas well spaced and beautifully designed for an evening drink. Plenty of parking too.
