The beds were comfy and the staff friendly. The hotel has character but could definitely use some updating. We enjoyed our stay though and found it quiet but walkable to everything we wanted to see.

They’re room was extremely comfortable and the service and staff were amazing. The building is old, so I could hear the neighbors, but it is charming and clean. My only complaint was the breakfast was kind of pricey, and it sat for too long under the heat lamps and kind of got crusty. Otherwise, I’d give this place 10 out of 10. I’ll stay here again, and I recommend it to anyone considering it.

Stirling is a lovely town. I had the good fortune of picking the Highland Hotel. After a very long drive down from Skye I was greeted by very friendly hotel staff. My room was extremely big! Bathroom too. Parking was easy, I just left my number plate at reception. Likewise I was able to walk within 2 minutes the centre of town for dinner. The Hotel building itself is quite interesting too.

Staff at the welcome desk was friendly and wonderful. Very nice building and room but I did not appreciate the stain on the bed linen.I left a note for the cleaning staff and slept on a large towel. Not the hotel's fault but guests were very noisy in the corridor during part of the evening which was quite annoying. I had dinner at the restaurant where the food was fabulous but the young lady providing service was horrible and not attentive at all..
