Lock in a great price for Cairn Hotel – rated 8.4 by recent guests!

to get started.

I booked this hotel for my parents, I forgot to mention that my dad was disabled and their room was on the first floor. However, the hotel staff were so kind and very professional and transferred them to a more comfortable room on the ground floor, which they were happy with. Very clean room, staff were very friendly and kind.. The location is brilliant, my parents walked everywhere and enjoyed their stay. I am happy that I booked this hotel for my parents :)

눉The room was a little cramp and we found some long black hairs on the floor which suggested it had not been cleaned properly but that was a minor issue and overall we did not feel it was not clean. The bed was comfortable and the staff made up for and dealt with any issues.
눇The situation was perfect for getting to all the attractions. Close to plenty of restaurants. The staff were brilliant especially Daryl.
