Top Dean Castle Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Express Glasgow Airport by IHG

8/10 Good

"We had a comfortable stay. Bed was okay, not as comfy as we’re used to. Room doesn’t have much room when you have a 2nd bed out for use for a family. 20min grace period to drop your car off. Hot breakfast doesn’t start until 6.30am. Toast and cereal only from 4am. Cereal options hadn’t been topped up so that was disappointing. Nevertheless, staff were really helpful and friendly. Stay overall was good. Would stay again."

Marine Troon

10/10 Excellent

"Always a good vibe in the restaurant, Food and service good...lobster would have been a bit bigger!"

Fairfield House - Ayr

10/10 Excellent

"We booked an overnight to attend a wedding. The room was a clean and a great size with plenty of room to get ready and lots natural light. Albeit, the room was a little dated but it was not something that made a real difference to our stay. The staff were all friendly and welcoming. The girl at the front desk (whose name I unfortunately can’t remember) was incredibly helpful, she pre booked our taxi to the wedding venue and nothing was a bother. The restaurant was great, staff were efficient and friendly and the meal was great and reasonably priced. Same with the bar. Overall it was a great place, met all of our needs and we would absolutely stay again."

Clayton Hotel Glasgow

8/10 Good

"Check in staff were very helpful and the hotel was lovely and clean with a great shower and in an ideal location. The only negative was breakfast which was chaotic, not enough tables, running out of food items very quickly and probably because they were short staffed staff were quite rude. Would stay again but wouldn’t have breakfast."

Parklands Hotel & Country Club

10/10 Excellent

"While about a 25 min drive into Glasgow city center, this was a wonderful place to spend our last few days. The service was fantastic, restaurant very good, spa/sauna a wonderful experience, and the rooms were spacious, clean, comfortable, and quiet."

The Gailes Hotel and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is spotless and very comfortable. Dog friendly and easy parking with good EV charging"

Glynhill Hotel
