I love the feel of this old building. It’s what I would expect a hotel this age to look and feel like. The decor is warm and quiet and welcoming. It’s kind of a maze, but that is part of the charm. The location is right in the heart of the city and surrounded by lovely buildings. I adore the breakfast staff!
Featuring panoramic views of the Wallace Monument and Ochil Hills, Highland Gate, Stirling by Marston's Inns offers accommodations 2 miles from Stirling city center.

Convenient and comfortable. Felt like regular hotel stay. Restaurant across the road was good food.
Found in an original Victorian building and renovated to 21st century standards, Hotel Colessio is an opulent addition to the center of Stirling.

Liked how central the Hotel was
Price was fantastic for 2 rooms
Shower was good although bath took a while to fill.
Staff were very accommodating for our problems as we had a few mishaps with key cards on our behalf.
Set on the slopes of Ochil Hill, the 19th-century Broomhall Castle Hotel features charming rooms, some with four-poster beds. The historic city of Stirling is just 5 miles away.

Beautiful location, lovely house, comfortable rooms & superb breakfast. This place is a real gem & easily walkable to the sites and city center. The staff is also lovely, attentive & kind - my friend left something behind & they graciously posted it to us in Edinburgh. A must stay!!

Clean comfortable and friendly. The staff made us feel completely welcome. Excellently crafted cocktails and very delicious food. We arrived and saw no need to leave to go anywhere else for the evening. After dinner, while our traveling companions went to bed, my husband and I stayed in the bar and felt quite at home playing a game.

Stirling exceeded our expectations. It was rich in history. The locals were very friendly and helpful. There was a wide variety of restaurant options. Even the thrift stores were top notch. There were several options to enjoy entertainment. We highly recommend the Settle Inn (on St. Mary’s Wynd) the oldest ale house in town (300+yrs). We were very moved by the traditional folk music performed by the locals. We also recommend joining in on one of the free guided tours in the Castle. It’s a great way to get to know the gossip of the royals and renegades.

There is so much to see and to absorb if you love history and want to know where your ancestors came from. Essential: talk to people wherever you go. There is so much to learn from those who staff the historic sites! Dee and Trisha were great sources of info. See Holy
Rude Church and the connected graveyard. Wow! Always ask for the hidden or less seen places. The Stirling Smith Art Gallery and Museum is a quirky gem. (It has the oldest known football.) Things to remember: walking is great, but challenging. Taking a taxi sometimes makes you miss some of the things, however, like going through the graveyard at Holy Rude.

I really liked Stirling however the stress of being unable to access the Mar Apartment as pin to access was not sent and which we had paid for through Booking.com and having to go searching for alternative accommodation at 8pm was the most stressful and upsetting thing I have ever experienced on holiday. The owner was uncontactable although I tried to call her 20 times and sent several emails and Booking.com did not help just kept saying to ring the owner. The situation has become even more upsetting as both Booking and the owner of the Mar Apartment are refusing to refund my money. Will never return to Stirling. Will never use Booking.com again. Awful experience.

Stirling is a lovely area.
Stirling is a lovely area. The castle is really interesting but there is a lot of walking on cobbles. We are getting on a bit so found it a bit uphill and down dale but well worth a visit. 20 minutes drive from Stirling are The Kelpies and the Falkirk Wheel. The Kelpies are amazing and if you book a tour they take you inside, a must for any engineer. Falkirk Wheel is more interesting watching from outside but is an absolute master in engineering. Stirling town centre had a lovely shopping Mal we just found it busy and difficult to park.

Stirling is my home town, but I have lived in the Highlands...
Stirling is my home town, but I have lived in the Highlands for many years now and always enjoy returning. I cannot see it through the eyes of a stranger, but I am proud of what it has to offer. You are literally walking through history on the streets of the upper town below the castle. Climb the Wallace monument and enjoy views from Edinburgh in the east to Argyll in the west. Play golf on one of the finest courses in Scotland with lovely views over the Carse. I could go on. Stirling is a must-see for visitors to Scotland.
Great hotel centrally located in Stirling, with restaurants, the castle, shops etc a 2 to 5 minute walk away, and only a 5 to 10 minute walk to the train station. The building is a large old historical hotel on the hill with views across the city and across to the Wallace monument, and the facilities are very good be it the restaurant, bar, or health centre (pool, gym, spa etc). Our room was lovely, lots of space, big comfy bed, good shower, great value for money. Breakfast was fab.
We will definitely stay again when we return to Stirling.
A fantastic B and B with a superb host in Laura. Extremely comfortable, very clean and a brilliant location. The lounge was a beautiful added bonus with tea, coffee and treats always available. Breakfast was fab with home made bread. We didn't eat till evening after breakfast.
Nothing was too much trouble and Laura ensured we were happy from the moment we arrived to the moment we left. We didn't want to leave. If you need somewhere to stay in Stirling you must come here.
Richard and his team made us feel welcome and comfortable the minute we arrived. The room was beautiful and comfortable..the view of Stirling Castle was a bonus! From in room snacks to guest umbrellas, The Allan Park goes above and beyond with hospitality. We walked to the castle in about 20 minutes, and it was an easy walk to downtown. Saving the best for last: the food was delicious. We ended up eating here 3 times during our stay because the food was so good!
The staff were all extremely cheerful, welcoming and helpful. Breakfasts were very generous and tasty.
We were able to use the free car park every night of our stay. The room we had was very comfortable and spacious enough for us. There was a 2 seater settee as well as 2 chairs, so relaxation was good.
The Golden Lion Hotel is extremely central in Stirling so shops, restaurants and public transport are all a short walk away.
We loved everything about our stay at Meadowpark. Our family of 5 stayed in two rooms. The staff was very welcoming and friendly and the attention to every detail was amazing. The complimentary cocktails, snacks and breakfast basket were an unexpected treat! It was definitely the best hotel we stayed in while in Scotland.
I like the location of the hotel.
The staff really work hard. The food is good quality and value for money.
Stirling City centre is not that far away.
Attractions are plentiful and leaflets are available at the hotel and the Bannockburn King Robert the Bruce centre.
The room was comfy, very good value for money. The place is very clean and tidy. Breakfast is full, good, and not expensive at all for what you get. The area is quiet and accessible to Stirling, Loch Lomond area, and Perthshire towards St. Andrews.
I had a twin room although I booked a single. The decor was very nice and the room very clean. There was a good selection of cooked and continental breakfasts. The Hotel in located in the centre of Stirling, very handy for visiting the Castle etc.
Clean room with great facilities and fast WIFI. The hosts were very welcoming and kind to us. Great place to be used as a hub while traveling, because all major attractions in southern Scotland are a short drive from Stirling.
The central yet private and quiet location
The comfort and quality of the furniture
The quality of kitchen appliances/utensils etc.
The beds were especially comfy
Easy access to castle, countryside and Stirling city centre.
Breakfast was great, hotel and bar staff were very friendly, nice choice of beers in the hotel bar (especially for cask ale drinkers). Prices in the bar were competitive with other pubs / bars in the centre of Stirling
The view from the room was beautiful, with a corner window as a bonus.
The location was perfect. A five minute walk to the town jail and 10 minute walk to Stirling Castle.
The old building was very interesting.
Stayed here before and once again an excellent stay, bed was super comfy and I slept like a log.
Th room was spotlessly clean as well.
Staff are very helpful and friendly too.
A first rate hotel in every way.
Very cheap and affordable. Very clean and has a very nice vibe would recommend if you are visiting the Stirling area. Not far from the city center about a 10 min drive
Nice spacious room, good breakfast served by friendly staff, good location in centre of Stirling with convenient car park right next to rear entrance of the hotel.
Beautiful hotel, both exterior and interior. Huge dining and bar area to welcome us. Perfect location for rail travel combined with visiting Stirling Castle.
