My partner and I needed a place to stay on our way up north, and since he grew up near the Hydro, we decided to give it a go. What a good shout! From DoubleTree's classic, warm cookies to the spaciousness of the room, we felt at home and comfortable. The Hydro also oozes Victorian charm and boasts stunning views of the surrounding area. What's not to love? It's actually a shame we didn't stay longer. We're keen to return, especially to try The Kailyard by Nick Nairn. My only issue is that the room door allowed a lot of noise through which was a slight disturbance.

As expected it was a good stay overall. Spacious common areas, nice restaurant and quiet place. We were disappointed with the size of the room considering we booked a Double Room Plus and got a very small room at the end of the corridor. There was hardly room to walk around the bed, certainly nowhere near over 20sqm as stated. We stayed in a normal double room a very long time ago but don't remember it being that small.

Fabulous location and the check-in was very smooth. The room was comfortable with tea and coffee provided. Unfortunately the TV was not working for the duration of our stay (problems with signal reception). The food in the Nick Nairn restaurant was first class, tasty and good portion size although let down by the slow service. The buffet breakfast was a feast!! Despite the 4 stars we would certainly stay here again and try the health centre.

The rooms are tired for what is charged for the stay. The bathroom ceiling was covered in black mould and there is no working extract system for the bathroom. On the second night of our stay a strong smell of cannabis was present in our room . The smoke was making its way into our room from the bathroom vent and from the hallway. We had a two year old in the room with us so this was of concern. I made reception aware of the issue however nothing was done as it continued throughout the night. We slept with the window wide open and tried to reduce the fumes in the room by blocking the bottom of the entrance door and bathroom door with spare pillows and towels. I made reception aware of my discontent on departure but was only told that they would not be able to knock on doors at that time of night. If someone had bothered to check on my concern, it would have been very obvious which room was the culprit. I know that the hotel cannot be held responsible for the behaviour of another guest, however they can be held accountable for how they react, and on this occasion they did not react in any way and left us to have an extremely uncomfortable night. Overall the hotel stay was disappointing, apart from the restaurant. Food and service was great for breakfast and dinner.

Reception staff was not at all helpful and seemed put out when asked questions. Room was tidy but the carpet was stained and the furnishings were worn. No electrical outlets near the bed, closest were on the far wall. Both the sink faucet and the shower faucet leaked constantly. The cleaning staff seemed very kind.

Due to the noise from the room next door we had no sleep the fist night so we cut our stay short . The burg plug did not work so you could not take a bath which as a good thing as the bath was dirty.The bed was not to the standard you would expect from a Hilton Hotel.When we told the receptionist that we were checking out early and way she did not attempt to resolve the issue.As a result we will never be back to this hotel again

The hotel is very tired in areas and could do with a repaint in the corridors and room with perhaps a carpet clean or replacement. The room was not exactly clean and needs some attention to detail within the showerroom, windows and surrounding frames. We stayed here a few years ago and is was certainly not the same experience as then. We paid almost £172 per night for two nights bed and breakfast through hotels.com when in fact when checking the price for the dates during our stay on hotel.com it was available for £64 per night plus breakfast on the same nights. This would have been £80 per night. We did question this with the hotel reception and all they could give us was a free bottle of wine with our dinner on the evening of our Wedding Anniversary which was the reason for our stay. The room was very small and disappointing and we had to change room as the shower was in the bath and my wife has mobility problems albeit the room with a walk in shower was also very small with not much room in the shower either. We did used the swimming pool facility and found this satisfactory. The food in the restaurant was also excellent and the staff attentive at dinner and breakfast.

The property was lovely if not slight worn. Our Junior Suite had torn curtains which wasn’t ideal. We asked to take some snacks (bread and olives) out onto the terrace and were told no because of health and safety but then a waitress brought food to a couple sitting next to us. The food was lovely and thoroughly enjoyed.

Hotel smelled like cleaning products. No staff to help with bags and you have to carry up the front steps because there are no ramps. Carpet in bedroom was stained. No mini fridge. Room was just outside elevator so it was noisy. Cable was broken and it took staff an hour to show up to fix. I wouldn't go back there are way better places for the price. Dinner was good though.

Our stay was less than grand. The first night we were put in the grotesque Sterling Wing, with its dilapidated walls, musty smell, non-functioning lift and faulty toilet. We asked to be moved. The second night in the main building was much nicer. The staff had a bit of an attitude. They seemed to want to be helpful but were defensive. They need better training. Surely Hilton can afford to put some money into this property - it has a lot of potential.

The disability accommodations were incredibly helpful. Staff was nice and its a very pretty hotel. The only issue that we had was the massive flooding in the shower from the drain being clogged with hair before we got there. They fixed up the issue and mentioned making sure that cleaning staff is more frequently checking the drains.

My wife and I were booked in for dinner bed and breakfast but unfortunately on the way to the hotel my wife fell and ended up in accident and emergency in Stirling. I contacted the hotel explaining the situation and they were extremely helpful telling me not to worry and that they would take care of everything and cancel my booking. I received a full refund two days later.

A beautiful hotel in wonderful grounds. Excellent, friendly staff and a tasty breakfast. We were just disappointed that the pool was closed on Sunday afternoon and Monday as we were looking forward to a swim. May we have a partial refund, please?
