Very nice hotel. But when you see a client with 11 pieces of luggage, please put them on the 1st or 3rd floor, the ones with lift access. Putting us on the 2nd floor, with no access to a lift was a huge mis-step, and only hurt this review.

We love staying at the Stirling Highland hotel. They have a really good gym and pool. Its really handy for the castle and tiwn centre. However it is a bit tired and the rooms could be doing with a bit of an upgrade. The room would also benefit from a fridge. The,1 bottle of water was welcome but why not leave 1 per person? For a Scottish Hotel in a popular tourist area I was really disappointed not to see porridge on the menu, also 20mins before the end of breakfast they ran out of fruit- other than apples and bananas - and didnt bother bringing any more out or natural yoghurt and honey which was very annoying! It is very charming and we will go back as we do like it!

Very nice hotel based in a very nice area of Stirling, however the breakfast was really poor, buffet style with anaemic bacon, eggs sitting for ages, people dropping the food utensils for the buffet in the floor then placing them back for others to use. Drinks dispensed by machine, and if you want tea you have to master how to get hot water. The poorest breakfast experience we had in Scotland, the management need to sit down and get this right, currently a very lazy attempt to provide breakfast. The breakfast really ruins the experience

The Stirling Highland is a nice hotel, convenient to the castle and shops and cafes. Nice pool and hot tub, easy check in. My only complaint was the bed. It must be very old with two beds pushed together and a big gap in the middle, a miserable nights sleep for both of us. Other than that, I'd recommend it
