Arrived on a busy Saturday night but was shown immediately to my room. Great location with a fantastic view. The rooms are above the pub and will make your visit a real classic experience. Had a single bedroom with a separate shower and bathroom. Clean and tidy. Enjoy!

Jane, United Kingdom

I researched all 15 places we stayed in Scotland and was very pleased with all of them. I'm writing a review on just three. I rate the view as one of my best ever. It is far enough away from the rail bridge to be quite but close for the view. I stayed in Room #1 with, good weather, and like trains.

Jim, United States of America

The room was just as shown in the photos, but did not have a shower in the roof.

Marvin, United States of America

The view on the Forth Bridge in rooms 1 and 5 is gorgeous. Having a pub in the house makes for a lovely experience. The breakfast was not included but could be added for a very reasonable fee.

Stayed on a Saturday night. i had read there might be "some" noise disruptions but never would i have expected what I experienced. It was as if my bed had been moved to the middle of the dance floor. It went on for hours. It was so loud. I'm talking shake the walls loud. Then when the music finally stopped, everyone stood outside my window hooting and hollering for another hour or so. Worst experience ever. They should be ashamed of themselves for even renting a room during their disco night. i got zero sleep! And I had such high expectations. The place was cute. Gwen, the bartender that checked me in, was super nice and helpful.

No wifi info, phone couldn't find one for hotel and Lamp in bedroom didn't work, didn't want to trek downstairs again to get bar staff to sort it. Disco at night was very loud, would have been nice to have been notified at time of booking.
Convenient and dog friendly

The only small downside was there was no shower in the room, the en-suite did have a bath though and plenty hot water for what we needed.

No shower. Damp or poor walls. Very Expensive for what we got. Hotel entertainment, disco was so loud, we were glad when it finished at 12am, it did warn you about this after I booked but I didn't think it would be as bad as it was, the 5 hour drive home the next day was very tiring after little sleep!
They were dog friendly and it was convenient to park

This little place is lovely - really cozy. The breakfast is nice, too. Although wifi doesn't reach the top floors, they do have it in the pub downstairs. For a real treat, drop into Orocco Pier just next door - a fantastic restaurant with sunning views of the Firth.
