The staff at the hotel were helpful but we had several challenges during our stay that were a bit out of their hands (power outage, etc). Bright spots were the hot tub access outside and staff help. Downsides was that the family bunk room we booked was surprisingly tiny (like we had to take all but one suitcase back to the car because it was too small to even have them there). Pictures didn’t convey this and Staff said the Hotel is due for a refresh, so maybe in a year it will be

The bald (sry) server was actually shaking his head in despair to see us arrive om time for breakfast. Its as if he did not want us there. Being an american I did confront him, if you dont want us here we domt need to eat here. He said ' no no its ok its fine' People come here om vacatiom. It shouldn't feel like a hospital where everyone is in pain. The property itself is very old not like how it looks on photos. They pretty much put a lipstick on a pig. Please spend ypur money elsewhere.

There’s a lot to say about this place. I had initially booked it back in fall 2024 and hadn’t seen the poor reviews. The week of our stay I had a bad feeling about going to stay at this hotel, and I read the reviews and almost cancelled our trip to the area and changed our route. I wish I had. The hotel itself is located pretty centrally in Glencoe. But beyond that, it was nowhere near as advertised on the website. Our room was free of clutter, but very dusty. It seemed to only be clean of debris on the floor, but all the trim had a thick layer of dust on it. The bathroom also looked to be nice upon first look, but the shower head had a lot of black build up on it. We also had a completely backed up shower drain that caused water to spill over the lip of the shower. The hotel advertises having restaurants but no availability and hours change constantly. It should not be advertised as a five star hotel and I regret staying.

Let down

The food at the hotel restaurant was terrible. Even tho they claim to be 5 star fine dining. The staff were very kind and helpful but just seemed undertrained. Our room was small hot and stuffy just didn’t match the high price. The bar wasent staffed to make any cocktails Overall just too high of a price for what it was

We were just there 1 night. Got in late. Dinner at restaurant was good as was breakfast. Rooms are very small. Double size beds. No a/c. There was a fan in the room. Staff was friendly and provided good service. Would not book again due to size of bed and room. Would go back to restaurant

Nothing like pictured

The photo s and description on hotels .com are nothing like the actual hotel. It is located on. Busy noisy road. The shower in our bathroom did not work. They say they have 2 restaurants and 2nars. In actuality there is Fish and Chips and Pizza restaurant attached. The main dining room is nothing like in the photos and they have no staff there. The bartender from the next room is trying to service both areas

Our stay was nice. However, there could be improvements in the dining experience. We ate in the “Fish and Chips” and the “Pizza” restaurants. They’re all the same, same cook. The food was fair. There’re aren’t other options in Glencoe. The location was nice, the staff friendly. It was only the food options that were a miss.
