We had accidentally left a diamond ring and a gold necklace behind during our stay and didn’t even realize they were missing for two days. When we contacted the hotel, the staff had already located the items and were incredibly helpful in making sure they were safely returned to us. The staff is truly exceptional. Their honesty, professionalism, and willingness to help meant a great deal to us. Losing something so personal could have been a terrible experience, but the team handled it with integrity and kindness. Our experience also reflects something we noticed throughout Scotland—the people are genuinely warm, honest, and welcoming. Everyone we encountered made our visit memorable, and this experience with the hotel staff was a perfect example of the character and kindness of the Scottish people. ##### Michael Stayed 1 night in Mar 2026 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sergio Nov 18, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service The hotel was very clean and modern.
