Stayed here for 1 night in august 2011. 1 night was long enough...or too long! It's old, dated, run down, smells like a hospital. The general clientele is over 60, and the staff are incredibly rude and unhelpful. Our room was small, cramped with one tiny window with a view over the car park. We asked to move to a... More

Visited the Alexandra and enjoyed every moment of my stay. From Brian (the manager) ,Ruth, the hotel staff and the drivers everything was superb.

We booked with Highland Heritage but couldn't travel on their coach as they don't allow mobility scooters ("too much hassle") so we went by car. The paperwork told us to be there by 5 pm as apparently that is when the coaches arrive. It was pouring with rain and we were met by a locked door. There is no Reception!... More

Excellent location with outstanding views across bay. Staff were friendly and accomodating but the standard of the room was very poor which didn't appear to have been updated since the 60's All fixtures and fittings in the room were in a poor state of repair. Would not recommend this hotel More

The only thing about it was the superior view. The bedlinen and curtains were faded. The towels were ragged and had bleach stains on them.Bin in bathromm fell to bits every time... More
