The Waterside Hotel

Lovely clean comfortable room. Friendly staff

Lovely room, really big and a large comfy bed. What more do you need?… maybe a few more gluten free options at breakfast would be good, there was nothing on the buffet I could eat. But I did get a cooked breakfast that was nice.

Perfect

Enjoyed everything about our stay meals and rooms we’re excellent

Nice, tidy and clean hotel. Good bed and I slept well. Breakfast was excellent.

From the outside, the hotel would be more in keeping in Cornwall than the rugged west coast of Scotland. My welcome was sadly half hearted and disinterested but my room was well appointed and comfortable. However, the restaurant is trying to be something that it isn’t. It was suggested that I take a seat on a sofa in the bar area and someone would take a drinks order. After 15 minutes, patience ran out! I didn’t fancy a starter and thought a small dish of olives would suffice. The cheapest, nastiest olives I’ve seen or tasted for a long time. No stick to eat them with and after enquiring, a plastic toothpick was the best on offer! My fish pie was good but glazed carrots are just the wrong vegetable. The charming waitress was overly busy whilst her colleague, in an inappropriately short skirt, propped up the kitchen pass chatting to the duty manager/restaurant manager who was equally ineffectual and lacking in observation. Some good ideas but shock application. I wouldn’t return.

Good food and service, fantastic room, very clean. Relaxed environment.

Excellent staff.

Great 😊 overnight for a wedding along at the hydro, had great weather which help views were stunning 🌞

I enjoyed my break away over all I waould rerurn

Very friendly helpful staff. Rather expensive for the facilitites offrered. Food very expensive . But a comfortable nights sleep

Lovely hotel for our overnight stay, staff very friendly. Restaurant was very good for our evening meal with a comprehensive menu. Only slight downside was they were doing some groundwork at the rear and side of the property so it was a little noisy early in the morning.

Lovely seaside location with great views towards Aran. Our room was large with a great big comfortable bed and a fab bathroom with a jacuzzi bath and rainfall shower over it. The bar and restaurant are also lovely with good selection of food for dinner and breakfast, both of which we enjoyed..

My room was meant to be a deluxe room with side sea view. Ripped and stained curtains do not say deluxe. View of the workmen doing the building works and woken by them at 7am is not deluxe. A shocking breakfast with such a poor selection is also not deluxe. I complained when I checked out, male manager approached me without introducing himself as the hotel manager, I had to ask Sorry who are you for him to then introduce himself. I showed him the curtains and discussed my complaint and that it was not worth what I had paid. I mentioned a local competitor who has bought a hotel close by and that their all over standards were so much better. He replied that he had been there recently and service was awful. Again not a professional reply. He apologised profusely and agreed with my complaints. I again reiterated the cost of the room, his way of compensating is giving me his email and to email him when I’m next in the area. In hindsight I should have pushed further for some kind of refund. I drove past last week and the ongoing works at the hotel certainly don’t make me want to rush back, they make the hotel look rundown. Shame, previous stay was great but I will continue on the road next time to its competitor up the road.

Great location for ferry to Aran

Lovely hotel big bedrooms Dog friendly have already booked our next stay

This is a modern well maintained hotel. Ultra pet friendly!! Right on the beach Good quality bar food, great breakfast Great staff. It is also right on the road so do book a beach facing room - we did not and the room was OK, but we yearned to open our window - and it was not to be as this is a busy road.

A five day stay to watch The Open Golf championship at Troon. The hotel was not able to provide TV coverage of the golf which was unfortunate ans most residents were there for the golf. The hotel took advantage of the golf to charge a premium for standard rooms. It may be better value to travel in from further afield during the championships.

Staff are super friendly. We took our dog and they were very accomodating and went the extra mile to ensure a nice stay.
