Macdonald Forest Hills Hotel & Spa

Hotel was nice and our family room was ideal. Pool and leisure complex were great. Breakfast was fine, although a little cold when it arrived. Dinner tasted nice, although not great portions. Biggest area that let the hotel down was the price of food and drink. £24 for a chicken or vegetarian was OTT especially as its not exactly top notch food, plus £13 for a glass of wine and £7.85 for a pint of lager. Basically costs like this means we will not be returning. I'm glad breakfast was included as if i had paid £25 for it i would not have been happy.

I didn' t like the rude staff, specially that girl called sam, we contacted the property to have our family room ready and she was so rude with us

We stayed here recently as part of our mini moon around Scotland. Overall, the hotel was okay. It wasn’t amazing but also wasn’t terrible. I found the staff very abrupt sometimes and they weren’t very welcoming. The batteries in our TV didn’t work so I went to reception for replacements however they didn’t have any so they said they would send maintenance, no maintenance showed up. Breakfast on both mornings we asked for brown sauce, again, no sauce appeared. It seems they don’t care and everything extra is an inconvenience to them. Breakfast was lovely but fairly small for the price of £18 each per morning! There really isn’t anything to do in the local area so I wouldn’t recommend for a family unless you want to drive at least 30 minutes somewhere. Like I said, it was okay but won’t be returning - nothing special and overpriced on my opinion for what it is.

Do not stay in room 101 you can hear footsteps from the room above and that includes kids running around and dogs! Kept us awake till late and woke us at 6:45am
