This is a lovely place to stay. We arrived after a hard day riding to this very accommodating hotel. We were met by friendly staff who though we were a large group dealt with us very confidently and quickly. The room was airy and clean and I had a good view. The food and bar were both of an excellent standard. Our overnight stay was made pleasant by all the staff. I hope the lady enjoyed her trip round Troon.

Staff very good,as were the meals. The room was lovely and big. had a good view of the sea. Slept well as the bed was very comfortable. For a 3 star hotel should be close to 4 star. Only thing missing was a lift for people who may have had mobility issues.

My wife and I arranged a last minute one-night stay over the Easter weekend, and payed a wee bit extra for a “penthouse” room with a sea-view. The room had all the facilities we needed and more, with a lovely seating area at a large picture window. ||Dinner exceeded our expectations. Breakfast was great. We had a brilliant time.
