Decent travel hotel spoiled by noise
Pros:

Location in Kirkcaldy is very convenient for visiting Edinburgh, Stirling, and further around the coast to St Andrews.

Hotel is newly decorated and well presented, rooms also.

Restaurant and bar are pleasant spaces, breakfast had a decent selection and quality of both breakfast and dinner was good.

Cons:

Service in restaurant was a bit slow. A 3 course meal took 2.5hrs. Wasn't in a rush and the food was worth waiting for, but something to bear in mind.

Noise in the bedrooms spoiled the entire stay. Whether it was heating, air con or plumbing I'm not sure, but room had a constant background drone. Every few minutes there'd then be another rumbling noise that lasted approximately 30 seconds. This went on throughout the night. The undercurrent to all this was a faint hint of bass from the music on downstairs which lasted till around 1am. The mattress felt lumpy and uneven. Not the place to go if you want an early night and to feel well rested.

My family member's room across the hall had similar noise levels as he was looking out onto the roof with the aircon unit and the chimney from the heating system.

Maybe we could have asked for different rooms and had a different experience.

I was not asked at checkout about how my stay was, hence my feedback being given here. But as I suspect the noise might only affect a few rooms and would take extensive renovations to fix, they are probably content to have 80% of their guests satisfied.

The hotel has recently received two 4 star ratings from the AA. Personally, I would rate it as a 3 star.

Une très bonne étape à un prix très raisonnable
Pros:

Bon accueil (check-in-check-out), chambre vaste et calme -quelques petites défaillances de matériel cependant.
Bon dîner, avec un personnel charmant, excellent buffet de petit-déjeuner.

Cons:

Quelques détails d'équipement (ascenseur inquiétant, fenêtre de chambre impossible à fermer...)

Could do better
Pros:

Lovely room, spacious, comfortable and clean. Helpful staff.

Cons:

Surprised not to have bottled water in the room.
Breakfast was very dissapointing
Mass produced cheap bread
Poor fresh fruit selection
Tea and coffee all pre made and presented very poorly in pump vacuum flasks, which was weak and luke warm, thankfully when requested the waitress kindly made us a pot of fresh hot Tea.
Hot food selection not replenished frequently, so quality was poor.
Very dissapointing in a hotel of this standard

Pros:

Beautiful decor throughout hotel.

Cons:

Room far too hot overnight. Fan in room helped slightly but had to have it on all night.
Unfortunately several pubic hairs in bathroom shower and floor (easily seen on beautiful white tiled flooring).
Buffet style breakfast was disappointing and no proper tea/coffee machine except big containers on a table. My opinion is the breakfast facilities, selection and quality are a bit of a let down.
