Golden Lion Hotel

Attention aux places de parking limitées

douchen in bad en het voor elkaar krijgen dat het water niet te heet was en dat er niet een stopcontact naast elk bed was

The mattress was dreadful, I could only get hot water from the shower by turning the bath cold tap on! The thin partition wall meant my neighbour’s 6.15 am alarm woke me up. Some staff were quite brusque.

Furniture a little tired and only 1 sashes of coffee and milk

I booked the Golden Lion Hotel in Stirling knowing that the rooms were somewhat dated and that the beds might be a bit firm. However, what I encountered went far beyond anything I could have expected. I have never seen such a filthy hotel and room in my life.

There was dust everywhere, the windows were so dirty with bird droppings that you could barely see outside, and the bathroom was full of mould, the toiletseat was broken. There was an insufficient amount of toilet paper, and the towels provided were clearly meant for just one person — hastily hung and far from adequate. In addition, absolutely everything in the room and throughout the hotel was worn out to a level that makes it unacceptable to rent these rooms out in good conscience.

I reported all of this to the reception and the management. It did not feel like it was the first time they had received complaints about the condition of the rooms and the hotel. To support my negative review, I am sharing the photos below

No internet in the room . Coffee and tea station was in a difficult location. No water glasses in the room. Heat was minimal and the bathroom was freezing the towel heater never went on. The bed was short and very small, queen size should be automatic no extra charge. Tv was way too small and connection to cable provider spotty.

Very opulent hotel with lovely furnishings until arriving at room . Room very tired , no welcome biscuits , no glasses for water.

Breakfast was terrible. Service was slow. Hotel generally looks very tired. Poor housekeeping

Very tired hotel , no Wi-Fi in the room , breakfast was unsatisfactory and trying to get the car out of the car park was a joke.

This may seem a small niggle - and it's a common problem with many hotels - but I would have appreciated some simple instructions about how to use the shower. There were two control taps but it was not obvious which tap did what. I ended up having a very, very, very hot shower because I couldn't work out how not to have a very, very, very hot shower.

the room and the breakfast.

Parking area felt like a derelict site, the hotel it’s self was very out of date/ tired in its appearance, our room was bang average with old grumpy windows and zero view. The elevator needed some attention so we didn’t feel comfortable using it
