Reviews and Ratings

What past guests shared about their stay
Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Ashgrove House, situated on a wide road with views of a historic monument, offers clean and comfortable rooms, some of which are spacious enough for three people. Many guests found the location convenient, with easy access to the city center via a short walk to the tram station and bus stops right outside the property. The breakfast is generally well-received, although some guests have noted the absence of certain items expected in a full Scottish breakfast. Free off-street parking adds to the convenience, especially for drivers, and the DINE restaurant is within walking distance.

the hotel was very clean. it had all the amenities exactly as described. the location was excellent, close to public transport. i appreciated the warm and cute atmosphere.
the shower was small. every time you raised your elbows you bumped the walls. the toilet didn't always flush completely and took a long time to refill.

The hotel is beautifully kept. We stayed in a family room, it accommodated three adults comfortably. The staff granted my request for a main floor suite for my elderly mother, it was much easier for her with no extra stairs. The breakfast served daily was tasty.
