Having read some less than positive reviews, we were a little bit sceptical about our stay. However, I can say nothing but good things about the hotel, our room, whilst not the biggest was clean, neat and tidy, the bar was lovely as was the dining room and the staff were all extremely pleasant and helpful. I would definitely recommend the hotel and will definitely stay there again. Only downside was the expensive car parking which is operated by a third party on the hotels land

A super friendly welcome and helpful people. The receptionist even carried my bag upstairs because I had hurt my back. My room was spotless and inviting. Even though the hotel is located on a main road, the traffic falls quiet in the early evening. I ate in the hotel both nights, and the food was very good. There was only one working socket in the room and just a single ceiling light. It would have been perfect with a comfy chair and a reading light.

Nice hotel in Sterling

This is not a “resort” level hotel but it is a very nice hotel for travelers for a one or two night stay. It is close to town so all of the local restaurants, pubs and coffee shops are easily walkable as is the castle and backside walk. There is parking (extra fee). I recommend.

My bath tub wouldn’t drain and the window wouldn’t close. No big deal just sucked in the wee early morning to not shower. There was a moment where exiting a man over the entrance had his foot out the window cutting his toe nails. Gross but not the hotels fault. Bathroom was very large which I appreciated after traveling all day. Bed was comfortable and clean.

The location was wonderful and the staff very helpful, however the beds are torturous and I'm not a fan of the bathroom door being glass. Exterior of the building is gorgeous though and you can't beat the walkability.

Booked this accommodation as it appeared with Parking. This claim was misleading- you pay for the privilege. Shower unusable as it scolded hot water on you, even after the lovely handyman "fixed" it. Had to bathe under bath faucet. Toilet ran.

Property is showing some age in the room flooring. Also no dining service available. Just a marginal breakfast offer. Served somewhat slowly. Reasons given for this was due to staffing issues carried over from covid. Also had to change rooms due to faulty shower. Only had very hot water and extremely hot water. No cold water at shower head.

Lovely stay at the Colessio in Stirling. The staff were excellent, so friendly and helpful. We had to pay an additional £15 to park for 24hrs, but we knew the car was safe and we were in the middle of the city so this was acceptable.

Room let it down

On arrival had to pay £16 to park in the hotel carpark for 24 hours 😤 surely if you have a room booked it should be free parking. Walking into the hotel downstairs bar and restaurant is beautiful. Staff are lovely and very welcoming. The room was a different story, lovely big room however needs upgrading. The carpet was thread bear in numerous places. The leather bed frame was all flaking. One of the cupboard doors was hanging squint. On the table at the window there were marks which didn’t look very nice. It’s a shame as this hotel has the potential to be lovely but the room and parking set up has let it down badly

Great Indoor bike storage, avoid the breakfast

Expensive for what it was. But they allow bikes to be stored in the room which is fantastic. Very friendly staff, clean room but quite shabby with threadbare carpet. Breakfast buffet was very disappointing with little choice and undrinkable coffee and tea from stale tasting flasks. We’d stay there again but avoid the breakfast.
