Breakfast provided a huge selection of traditional favourites of Scotland. They continually refreshed offerings. Very friendly service.

Stirling exceeded our expectations. It was rich in history.
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.

Most shocking experience of any holiday when we were unable to access accommodation we paid for through Booking.com. Don’t use Booking.com. They did not help us and we had to find and pay for alternative accommodation.

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.
I would just like to say that the staff and the hotel were unbelievable. We could not have been happier with our stay and since I traveled with my husband and 6 of our friends I got to see four different rooms and they were ALL amazing. A wonderful introduction to the area as we were just arriving in Scotland from America and close restaurants to walk to nearby. Beautiful area. Kind and informative and very funny owner too! Couldn't have loved it more. Make sure to ask about the millwork on the ceiling. Very interesting history attached!
One of the better places on my road trip.
Surprisingly friendly in an off beat genuine way.
Close to the centre and cheap Indian restaurants.
Good parking.
Quite idiosyncratic and funny in lots of ways.
Very good breakfast at an unbeatable price.
I liked the wardrobe that did not have a door. Generally, I do not use hotel furniture because I am scared of leaving stuff behind.
The area was full of old and interesting buildings. (Shame about the George Christie clock tower, that the Council demolished under cover of darkness).
Had garden room on lower ground floor, which has window view onto front garden. Room large, tastefully furnished with large modern shower in bathroom. Spotlessly clean and we were provided with free snack that were always renewed! Staff very friendly yet professional at all times. Ate in hotel restaurant both nights of our stay and enjoyed dinner from varied menu; a great place to relax after a day’s sightseeing. Easy access to city centre and an uphill climb to Stirling Castle, which is a must see! Highly recommended.
Very accessible to town, train station and other public transportation and very close to the castle. We were able to easily get to the William Wallace memorial vis bus. Rooms were small but cozy, pretty typical in Europe and the UK anyway. Compared to some places we've stayed in Scotland, I felt like it was a pretty quiet area. Hostesses were wonderful. Breakfast was to order along with many options to make anybody happy. Would absolutely stay here again.
Location was convenient for exploring Stirling.
I had a lovely meal when I arrived and a very comfortable, spacious and clean bedroom. The Scottish Breakfast choice was good and was hot and cooked properly. All the staff were welcoming and helpful. There was a charge of £10 for my dog, which I thought was reasonable. Unlike some hotels in the area, parking was free.
It exceeded our expectation. The place looks nicer in person than in photos. Super nice place. Nicely furnished. Facilities all great… washing machine, dishwasher, oven etc. very comfortable apartment with nice heating temperature… it’s the best place we stayed in our vacation in the UK… near train station, supermarkets and Stirling castles…
Near the top of the hill from city centre to the castle. An easy walk down and a regular bus from tha stop outside the Golden Lion Hotel to the stop almost opposite the apartment. Several very good restaurants within walking distance.
The apartment was very well equipped with modern fittings. It was comfortable and peaceful.
This aging hotel is located in the Old town of Stirling, just a stone’s throw away from the big sites. A pleasant stroll downhill also brings you to the small but quaint city center. The hotel has a nice Spa and gym which we used daily.
The staff is helpful although perfunctory.
Stirling is brilliant. The castle is worth a visit. Beautiful area of Scotland. Beds were comfy, linen and towels clean, kitchen had plenty of equipment and rooms were fairly clean and tidy. Place is OK to eat and crash, with other awake time spent out of it.
Restaurant right next door was part of the place. Food was good and prices reasonable. Room was nice. Had a desk. WiFi free. Bed was comfortable. Easy to find. Right off the highway. Close to stirling castle. Starbucks across the street.
Location is ace. Quick walk to Castle, City Centre etc. The hotel has a nice pool and the staff were very friendly and helpful. The cooked breakfast was good, restaurant in General had good Food. But there are issues with service.
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.
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.
The staff were so amazing! I would go back just for them!! The hotel is lovely and the food is very good. The location was convenient to lots of things we wanted to see. Stirling is beautiful.
I have stayed at the Stirling Court hotel several times. The hotel is lovely, comfortable rooms and great breakfast. The staff are so friendly. I also love all the wildlife around the hotel.
The location of the hotel is great, its right in the middle of Stirling so it makes it pretty convienient. The staff were very friendly and the hotel has a really good layout and look to it.
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
