8/10 Very good

Beautiful hotel. Nice and peaceful. Literally the only issue - they have cheap instant coffee in the hotel room. Maybe it’s a UK thing but Nescafé instant coffee is garbage and not what I’d expect to see offered at a 5 star hotel.

Lovely stay

Room very comfortable and had everything we needed. Excellent breakfast served in the morning. We had dinner one of the evenings as well and it was delicious. Highly recommend the marcliffe. Gym small but adequate. Cleanliness can be improved but also challenging in a big hotel.
Mili, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent

Service here is incredible. Well-staffed, experienced, attentive-- the highlight of the stay. Setting is Scottish suburban and visited in the off-season so didn't get a sense of the grounds. Food and beverage had a formality that were worth the trip.

Will be back! And not one time

Amazing. Quality with everything is outstanding. Food is top notch. Only small note is the dog friendly. Yes, you can bring a dog but only to the one room type (which was nice enough), and dogs are not allowed in the bar, only in the lobby. That was a bit of a disappointment but the whole overall stay was brilliant
Roy, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

5 star? Hardly

We were given one key - placed in a slot to keep electrics on: Fine, until one of us wanted to leave and return to the room. The room was lovely and the bathroom spacious. However, it was cold and the heater inoperative. I slept with socks on too. The towel rail was nice and hot. The ceiling light at the door didn't work and bedside lights shaded and so far from bed that reading not at all easy. In the morning the room was cold and the towel rail also. Neither was operable by me. There was a small amount of black mould behind the bath taps. Altogether not great. Shame really cos it could be fabulous .

‘A Marcliffe Moment’ - a dreamy indulgence.

Breakfast - provide a hot flask of coffee on the buffet table so that guests coming into breakfast can pour a quick coffee into a mug to take to their table. I was gasping for a coffee as I came down for breakfast and tried to help myself to a quick coffee at the table at the bottom of the stairs in Reception but I was stopped from doing this by the doorman and propelled forwards to the dining room. I had to wait for ten minutes, still gasping for coffee, while we were seated at table, ordered from menu, ordered a cappuccino, helped myself to something from the buffet and had consumed it, all before a coffee arrived at our table! Plus, I don’t like the muesli presented in what reminds me of a toothbrush holder - the glass tumbler thing. I would prefer the muesli presented in a breakfast plate (like a small soup plate or dessert plate). The food and coffee is all delightful, a real treat, it’s a dreamy breakfast, so I’m not complaining, just giving you some feedback. When something lovely happens to me in my daily life I call it ‘A Marcliffe Moment’ - just a dreamy interlude of perfection.

Fabulous Marcliffe.

From the second we got close to the door we were greeted like returning friends. The hotel is fabulous and whilst having that great place is very good, it is the staff who make the difference. They were awesome! We will definitely return.
