The hotel and restuarant attached were amazing, we werent expecting much as we saw it in a retail park on the maps, but was very surprised with how clean, tidy and very friendly the staff were. The hotels ideally situated just off the M90, so makes travelling about even easier.

Room was outdated, everything seemed very old, wouldn’t stay there again. In fact, out of 5 hotels I’ve stayed in the UK, this is the only one I wouldn’t go back to.

As a place to stay this is ideal it has easy access from the motorway network and a range of eateries on the retail park. The staff were more than pleasant and check in was easy,however prior to arrival i received over 20 emails requesting various things relating to the four rooms I had booked including an invitation to book breakfast, on-line check and departure. I made one booking but all four rooms were billed separately activating fraud alert at my card issuer that i then had to resolve. to say it annoyed me would be an understatement. I even phoned there call centre and they told me to ignore the online check in, get it sorted. The adjacent carvery that is owned and run by Marstons seem extremely popular with the locals the chap running it was clearly well known to the customers and his mashed potatoes were divine. It is a nice quiet place to stay.

I definitely recommend the hotel. The room was very clean, well looked after, and comfortable. The staff were all great. Shout out to James, Ryan, JR, Emma and everyone whose names I've forgotten. Highly recommend the restaurant. The food was very good. We particularly enjoyed The Carvery. It was a breeze taking the train into Edinburgh, but I wish we had time to explore Dunfermline, it's a beutiful small city.
