It's a bit of a tardis, it looks like a old Victorian sandstone house from the front, but it expands back and to the side - a lot. We walked through the nicely-appointed and bright housey bit, the bar, and into the large, smart, dimly-lit restaurant. We were greeted pleasantly and shown to our table. The A la Carte menu looked pretty appetising and I went for Scallops with Black Pudding to start and the Chilli Chicken & Chorizo Stir Fry for the main, Miss Nibs went all old-school and had a Classic Prawn Cocktail and Beef Stroganoff. The scallops came quickly and were extremely creamy, almost slightly undercooked for my taste, but good, the plate covered in a honey, lemon and chilli glaze in a lattice pattern. Pretty good start I thought. My partner's prawn cocktail was nice also. The mains came in good time too, and she enjoyed the beef stroganoff. She eats quickly and this leads on to the next point. Both my dad and myself eat less quickly, and by the time I was even close to finishing my plate the food was cold, why, well because the plate it was served on hadn't been warmed. Bit of a cardinal sin that! As father said the sign of a disorganised kitchen? The stir-fry itself was served with too much rice, and to be honest given the fact there was chilli AND chorizo in it, it lacked zing and was a bit insipid, it was not unpleasant, but not the fire-breathing torture fest I was hoping for. We had a nice pint in the bar afterwards. Would I go back? For sure. Was it great? No it was pretty decent. Gotta be a three overall.

My starter arrived which was beef satay and straight away I spotted a hair in my meal but as I was out with some good friends I hadn't seen for a while I just asked for the serving staff to take it away and let my friends finish there starters. The manager came out and asked if he could get me anything else and I tried to be understanding and told him it was fine and I would just try my main meal when it arrived and when it did it looked great madera chicken with mash and veg and so I started to tuck in and if the first instance wasn't enough r there at the bottom of my plate was another two hairs stuck to my plate. This is the worst experience I have suffered at a restaurant ever and my friends all stooped there meals also. I strongly suggest you avoid this restaurant for your own health and safety as this to me is just scratching the surface of the real issues in the kitchen here. If I could have give the place negative stars I would.

Naturally, with this many people, a few arrived a bit late. Ok, nearly an hour late. This didn't seem to phase the hotel staff. Perhaps because we had a separate function room rather than just a table booked in the main restaurant. Once we were all finally seated, wine was poured and orders were taken very quickly and we didn't need to wait long for the food to be served. I ordered the tomato and basil soup, the herb crusted salmon and the winter fruits cheese cake. All were delicious, although the soup came with vanilla cream which some people loved but I just thought was a bit odd. I think if I were to order it again I'd probably ask them to hold the vanilla cream. After the meal we were served tea and coffee and given plenty of time to relax and chat and finish our drinks. I'd definitely consider organising a party of this kind here in the future.

The locals claimed that it normally wasn't needed for the climate. But I thing the management here needs to consider offering more than just a small fan. Each room has a heater, so I would recommend this hotel in cooler weather without hesitation. I had a clean, comfortable and QUIET room considering the wedding. Scottish breakfast was very good. I tried Haggis for the first time. If you ever watched the movie Highlander, Christopher Lambert describes Haggis as "meat and barley boiled in a sheep's stomach". MMMM doesn't that sound good? (NOT) Well, I found it to be a bit like corned beef hash, but much less salty. Not my _favorite_ breakfast food, but I am glad I tried it. They also offer roasted tomatoes, sausages, scrambled eggs, custom omelets, yogurt and fruit. I only ate breakfast here, so cannot rate the lunch or dinner menu.

Just back from a night here so I thought I'd write up a review while it was very fresh in my mind!…read moreWe booked here for a night away - a mini holiday, if you will. Booking was simple though the website and we went for the Friday night deal - complimentary cocktail each, £20 each off the dinner bill and breakfast for £119. We upgraded from the double room to a superior room, but it's worth noting that the website doesn't actually tell you what the difference is and I'm not actually sure the room seemed any more superior than a standard room. I'm not really a fan of the hotel from the outside - I think it looks like an IT business. Inside though, it is super slick, modern and classy. There has been a lot of work put into the decor and we spent a good amount of time over lunch talking about how cool it is. There's free wifi throughout, both the rooms and the public areas which is handy. I'll try to split my review up into easy to manage parts from here on in. The bar: We ate in the bar for lunch - a lot of the meals are also starters on the evening menu so it was a good way of trying as much of the menu as possible. I had the lemon sole goujons which came with chips. Some of the best chips I've ever eaten, they were so good they even overshadowed the goujons which seemed a little bland by comparison. I also started on the cocktail menu and loved everything I had - they can do cocktails off menu as well, and this one was the only one I found a little disappointing. I like my espresso martinis on the sweeter side and this was definitely savoury but still pleasant enough. The bar was a really nice place to sit and have a drink and we found ourselves back down here before dinner. There's lots of nice nooks, couches and cushions so you can have a good chat with your beloved without feeling like there's other people too close by. The restaurant: Adjacent to the bar is the restaurant which again, has the same great design elements as well as comfortable arm chairs at the tables. The tables were all nicely spaced out so you weren't right by another table - maybe if it was full this would be an issue. I did have to ask to switch seats with Graeme though as there was an air con blowing right on my back, he didn't seem to mind. The menu is impressive and I was interested to see if the dishes would live up to their luscious description. I had hand dived scallops with chive butter and pea shoots (£12.50) and then the 9 oz fillet of Scotch beef for main with bearnaise and a side of sprouting broccoli hollandaise (£29.95). The scallops were really small so I was a little disappointed when they arrived, but that went away when I tasted how good they were. Succulent, juicy and sweet, the chive butter was a great sauce to go with it and possibly a few more pea shoots would've been nice. The steak was also great - not the best steak I've ever eaten but still damn good. It did cool down really quickly, possibly because of the cold plates but apart from that I really can't complain. Again, I was really impressed by the chips (chunky cut this time) but when they cooled down they lost their lovely crunch. I wasn't going to get dessert but seeing passionfruit souffle with coconut sorbet on the list blew my mind and I knew I had to have it. The waiter helpfully checked whether there was dairy in the dish so I ordered it, but I'm pretty sure it was served with a side of cream which was weird. The souffle was lovely but really got far too sweet after about 1/4 which was a shame - it needed that cream to cut through the sweetness but I couldn't eat it. The sorbet was lovely but again very sugary sweet. I also enjoyed that they served wines by the carafe so you could have 1/2 a bottle and then switch to something else - the rosé and albarino were both lovely. Overall it was a very good meal with helpful and friendly service. The bill was a little more than we were expecting but probably all the cocktails and wine was to blame. The hotel: As I mentioned above, we paid for a superior room but I'm still not sure what the superior aspect was as it seemed standard - bed, ensuite. There wasn't any couches, lounges and the size didn't seem overly generous. But apart from that, the room was perfect. A lovely leather bed which was super comfortable. The biggest pillow I've ever seen in my life. A couple of freshly baked cookies on the desk under a glass cloche. A good sized bathroom with a shower/rainfall option and nice toiletries. The bed was super comfortable to sleep in and the doona/duvet was light and warm at the same time. It was a little chilly in the room and even when we left the heating on it didn't warm up a whole lot, and in the morning the bathroom was pretty chilly. For a mini-holiday close to Glasgow, I'd definitely return here as it really did feel like a proper holiday in a very romantic, cosy hotel.

It is somewhere I always for get is there due to its quite isolated location in the centre of the large Eurocentral Business Park. The exterior of the hotel is just like a large office building, black and dark grey and very minimalist. In entering it, again was pretty dark, however lots of candle light and open space which created a nice atmosphere. I loved the open fire that was shared between the front reception and the seating area in the bar. There are a variety of large comfy couches, chairs and little private seating areas that appeared to be used by people there on business making phone calls and utilising the free wifi throughout the whole hotel. We sat in the bar for a drink, I was driving unfortunately so was on the sparkling water. However there are lots of fantastic cocktails on offer, and a wide range of beers and spirits. Nice open bar area where you can comfortably sit, or again make use of the variety of seats and areas in this space. The dining area has large slatted wooden walls which separated this area, however keep it feeling open and spacious. The menu had a fantastic selection of great sounding dishes. The staff were extremely attentive and highlighted dishes of the day, and certain elements of the menu. I selected the mussels to start then the Thai baked sea bass for main. My friend had the Oriental Pork salad with mint, coriander and bean sprouts, Rib eye (12oz) with char grilled courgettes and pecorino. My mussels were sweet and well cooked in a light cream, wine and garlic sauce. Not too big a portion, with a wee dish of hot water and lemon on the side for the messing fingers. My fish was delicious. The Thai flavours really came through, and a paste with ginger, chilli, lemon grass etc appeared to have been made and placed under the skin prior to cooking. The fish was completely filleted which was great, and so easy eat. Pak choi was tasty with a wee kick from the chilli, and just the perfect portion of light and fluffy basmati rice. The menu is a bit on the pricey side, however the food was prepared to a high standard, the staff were extremely helpful and attentive. I would definitely return and possibly without the car or have an overnight to enjoy the cocktails and rest of the hotel facilities.

I had the breaded Camembert which came on a mountain of dressed salad, and the Camembert cakes were so tiny! It came with two of them, and a little pot of onion jam, but I just was not impressed. It was £4, and I thought that was way too expensive for what it was. We both had the smothered chicken, topped with cheese and bacon and a jacket potato on the side, it was nice, but nothing extraordinary. It came with yet another high pile of salad, which was fresh, but I was all saladed out by that point. The BBQ sauce came in a little jug and was way too thick and strong tasting for me. For a starter, main and drink each, our bill was just over £30, which I really didn't think the meal was worth. Wec ould have taken advantage of the 2 main meals for £10 from a set menu though, and if I end up going back, I will certainly be doing that.
