Auchinleck accommodation from NZ$104

Food was excellent

This was one of the worst hotel experiences I’ve had, and at £85 for the room, it is frankly unbelievable how poor the overall standard was. From the moment I arrived, the tone was set by an incredibly rigid and unfriendly approach. I asked about check-out time and was told it is strictly 11:00 AM, and even being 5 minutes late would result in a £20 charge. No flexibility, no understanding — just a transactional, almost punitive attitude towards guests. The condition of the hotel was equally off-putting. The entrance and stair carpets smelled strongly of dog hair, which is not exactly the welcome you expect. Sadly, the room didn’t improve things — it was small, with the same unpleasant carpet smell, making it feel unclean and uncomfortable. Basic amenities were shockingly absent. No water provided in the room, which is standard even in far cheaper places. Breakfast arrangements were also disappointing. It finishes at 9:30 AM, meaning if you want even a slightly relaxed morning, forget it. For a hotel charging these rates, this is completely unreasonable. Overall, the stay felt less like a hotel and more like being in a strict, joyless military lodge — no comfort, no hospitality, no flexibility. For £85, this is absolutely not worth the price. There are far better options elsewhere. I would strongly recommend avoiding this place. I have come all the way from London . I will never make the same mistake of staying here again. Will never recommend this hotel to anyone

Had a lovely stay. Breakfast staff were attentive and very friendly. Breakfast was cooked to order and arrived quickly.The leisure suite is a bit tired (jacuzzi was out of action, and looked like it had been for a while) however, this did not detract from the overall relaxed vibe of a charming old hotel. We would stay again.
