The experience and service offering did not offer value for the price charged. This is an old building and is well kept but it needs modernising. Bathroom had no shower and we had to step into a very high bath to shower, there is whole safety issue here and no handles on the wall to help climb in and out. The hot water in the shower was scalding and we could never regulate the temperature or water pressure. For the price we have expected a bottle of drinking water in the room but this was not offered. Breakfast was at best, mediocre and disappointing. We had to decide the night before what we wanted, the choice of hot food was poor and there was no facilitating any request for simple change, I requested poached egg and told its only what's on the menu, so it's scrambled egg or nothing. Clearly the breakfast is made sometime before you sit at the table, as I had only sat down to eat my cereal and out came the hot food, you feel rushed. The bar has a great selection of whiskeys and the staff do walk you through the different brands. Evening menu is very limited and kitchen closes at 8pm. Staff where very polite and friendly and the view from our bedroom was magnificent. Overall I came away disappointed as I had higher expectations based on the ratings and price charged. I would stay again if they improved the level of service or reduced the price. It's not good value for money as we stayed in other hotels on our holiday which were substantially cheaper with quality service.
