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.

Definitely not a 4*. More of a 2 star by North American standards. Young man of Irish descent at the bar was awesome. Front desk staff not so much. We were given an accessible room for some reason? Didn’t ask dor or request it. Hotel was VERY dated and run down. Looks like it hasn’t had any improvements since the 70s.

Comfortable hotel, great wee gym and warm pool. Not evident beforehand but parking is charged at £10 per 24 hours. Food ok, bit overpriced eg £8.50 for very small breadbasket. Staff pleasant and helpful

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.

A nice mid range hotel in a good location.

Well positioned hotel. Clean, cozy and serviceable although rooms a little tired and had a lingering odour of tobacco from the past. Main areas have been nicely updated. Leisure facilities were nice and breakfast had a good selection of hot and cold food.
