Mum and daughter trip
Pros:

My daughter and I stayed here a few months ago and didnt hesitate to book the hotel when we needed to stay in prestwick again. The Carlton is so clean, comfortable and welcoming, it was like a 'home from home'. The breakfast was first class and the evening meal was delicious, the staff were attentive and friendly. We will definitely be booking to stay here again and would recommend The Carlton to others.

Cons:

I have nothing negative to say.

Great short stay Hotel
Pros:

The rooms are not big but fine for a short stay. It was clean and modern with a bath not a walk in shower. Good tea making items provided and large TV. Comfortable bed and good heater in room and heated towel rail in bathroom. Logan's bar,dining room has a good atmosphere and drinks and food very good. Good cooked breakfasts available. All Staff provided good service with a smile. Stayed before and would stay again.

Cons:

Price was a lot higher than last year. No draw unit to store clothes in.
