Excellent breakfast for the monies paid even included fish alternative which was much appreciated.

A little noisey when other guests came in late.

convenient

Very expensive bar snacks. Used to be able to order spirits off night porter, now restricted to a bottle of beer, not good enough for a city centre hotel

Conveniently situated for my purpose.

Very small room indeed. Extremely cramped. Poor shower operation. Horrible "view" from window. Breakfast selection fair, but poor quality food.

Breakfast was especially good, even though it was self service.
I found all the staff most helpful.

The lift on the 5th floor had a faulty call button and I had to walk to the 4th floor for the lift. Had i'd been disabled, which I am not, it would have caused quite a problem.

We would definately stay again
(108513630)

It was a nicely decorated room which was pleasing to the eye and very relaxing. The staff were lovely and very accommodating.

Blocked sink in the bathroom. We were staying over for a party which was booked in the hotel but couldn't get an alcaholic drink on our room or even room service once the bar was closed which was quite disappointing

As it was a last minute booking, I'd have expected a better deal. We could have gone to a nmber of hotels for the sme price and got a bigger room. If you keep the price competitive,we'd use the Menzies Strathallan again, or give us a bigger room - we were tripping over our luggage!
(108653064)

Lounge, foyer, ground floor all in excellent taste. Privacy excellent, staff response excellent. Loved the art-work in the foyer

Room too cramped, I would have expected to pay less for the size of room.
The tv was off to the side of the bed, gave us a crick in our neck watching it.Only Irish papers at breakfast! Didn't know about choice of egg until I'd eaten the only watery tasteless scrambled egg on view, would have preferred fried egg, not boiled or scrambled - the rest of the menu was fine, thanks

Too short stay to make a general comment other than our observations above.
(Our stay did not include breakfast)
(107498342)

We complained when we were charged car parking which they ignored.
Next morning we informed reception, extractor fan not working and toilet flush works intermittantly.Manager busy but will phone later.Still waiting!

Clean room, good food and very good value for money

Hotel bar understocked and bar staff undertrained, i asked for a bloody mary and they didnt know what that was, when i explained they had no tomato juice! No guinness or pear cider either!

Cleanliness, facilities, service, standard of rooms

Poor ventilation, too warm, room too small.
Anonymous (Mature couple) 19 August 2009
I would have rated this higher if the room had been bigger.
(108448414)

Comfortable bed, clean room and bathroom.
Dinner well presented and tasty.
Friendly and helpful staff.

VERY small room, very hot - no air conditioning. Ventilation restricted by catch on window. Mediocre breakfast ( buffet style - does not stay hot, but the same as most hotels these days!)

Ruined by Restaurant Managers attitude, room VERY small and airless, too hot to sleep properly
(108817633)

Waiting staff in restaurant EXCELLENT,food EXCELLENT quality and value. Reception staff very good and helpful

appalling manner from Reastaurant Manager, surly, rude and indifferent to us AND fellow staff.
We were advised that we could have a continental breakfast in the restaurant, or tea and biscuits in the foyer by the receptionists, Restaurant manager overruled them, saying"far too busy, its a full buffet breakfast or nothing"
Room Very small and airless, far too hot to sleep

Good reception, attentive staff

Impersonal atmosphere, room small but functional, no options offered by staff for breakfast menu eg eggs cooked to order or poached haddock / kippers which I would have fancied, buffet was luke warm and not appetising, plates were cold

Whilst accepting this was a promotional price for a weekend break, food for the Saturday dinner was poor. Small 'double' rooms.
