Beautiful view from the room. Very spacious. Excellent water pressure in the shower, and the bed was enormous and very comfortable to boot! Very welcome after a long day exploring the beautiful area. The restaurant served very good evening meals, and the drinks were good. The views were to die for! It was a pleasure to take the evening sun on the terrace outside and then move indoors to eat in the restaurant and still look out over the harbour. Staff are very welcoming and friendly

The room and furniture are a little tired and busted, which is understandable in such a grand building. If the room offered coasters, even cardboard coasters from the bar, this would help protect the ageing varnished table tops. The sitting chairs have grease marks from the hands and backs of other residents' heads, so we used our own clothes are chair covers so we could sit down. A deep clean and adding chair protectors would help. There is so much space in the room, a small fridge for bottle water and fresh milk would complement the tea/coffee facilities.

We had a lovely one night stay at the Fernhill. We booked the superior seaview room which was spacious with beautiful views over the harbour. The bed was large and comfortable and there was plenty of seating to relax in. The staff at the hotel are all very friendly, attentive and nothing was too much trouble. They even loaned us a pump to pump up our motorbike tyre! The food at dinner and breakfast was good and the vegetarian choices were better than usually offered at some hotels. The choice at breakfast was plentiful. All in all a lovely stay and we would certainly return.

A larger portion of veg at dinner would have been welcomed but this is a minor issue.

Large room with outside patio was brilliant, great to have so much space. Staff were very helpful & friendly. Great selection of fresh foods at breakfast & good choice of hot foods cooked to perfection. Good variety of starters, mains, desserts & cheeseboard on dinner menu, all beautifully cooked, presented & at very reasonable prices. Overall, standards were very high. Been to portpatrick many times but this was the best view ever & only a short walk to the harbour, absolutely stunning views.

Shower curtain was a bit "clingy" & would prefer a shower that could raise/lower height.

Location was great. Food was great apart from the chocolate fondant being solid. Staff were lovely very friendly and helpful. Rooms were spacious but old fashioned... that didn't stop us loving the place.

Coffee machine intermittently not working at breakfast. Is it that hard to have coffee pots? Beds too hard and pillows too soft....not my taste but maybe suit others. Didn't sign for any room charges in bar or restaurant and checkout bill not broken down so you really need to be aware of what you charge to your room to be sure bill is correct. A bit over priced considering the facilities.

The view from window is amazing. Nice comfortable bed. Spacious room. Large bathroom with a bath. Other reviews said furniture was ‘tired’. Sure, it’s not new or modern a the wooden furniture is ‘lived in’ but it’s not a new modern hotel - adds to the charm! Soft furnishings were not worn or shabby, just not a modern style. They were all very clean and fresh and I had a great sleep in the room :) Staff very friendly and approachable.

Nothing really … apart from machine coffee at breakfast … And the dinner menu wasn’t appealing - but tastes differ. Breakfast was nice though :)

The staff were exceptional. So attentive, friendly and helpful. The room decor is somewhat dated but spotless. Anything you needed that wasn't immediately available the staff would promptly facilitate. We stayed in the sea view room and what a view it was over the port. Stunning. The location was quiet, easily accessible by car or on foot. No lift but plenty of ground floor rooms.

The food wasn't great. The portions were quite small and the quality wasn't reflected in the price. There are plenty of other places to eat in the town itself though.

Food was excellent and very hot when bought to the table, nice selection for both breakfast and dinner. Beds were comfortable and bedding clean. Lovely big picture window with beautiful view of the harbour and sea . quiet area but with pubs and restaurants close by. A couple of nice cliff walks for exercise. Nice drive up towards Ayer and then back over the hills and moors to Newton Stewart for great views. Although word of warning, the moors road is not for nervous drivers, lots of twists and turns.

While the hotel has an older feel to it, the wifi, room facilities, constant hot water, room cleanliness, comfort and views from the different rooms were fantastic. We had the superior double room with a verandah and it was so hot we spent a lot of time there after big walks in the morning. In addition, the staff were fantastic - above and beyond the call of duty eg, bringing extra coffee and milk sachets to our room in the evening while dinner was being served. Adam and Marty were on duty and were among the best staff I’ve come across for engagement and professionalism - and I’ve stayed at Gleneagles! The food was also much better than we expected with a very good choice to suit all diets and really delicious.

There is nothing we didn’t like - although I can appreciate some visitors might prefer somewhere with a more state of the art modern feel.

I loved the location, close to the golf and the pubs in the village. The room was brilliant with a view over the harbour, the room was very clean and comfortable, I liked the fact that you had coffee / biscuits in the room. The staff were very attentive and friendly. Our evening meal was very nice, the food was presented well with fresh veg and salad accompaniment . The wine was lovely and reasonably priced.

The only thing I didn’t enjoy so much was breakfast, the cereal selection was fine, but the full breakfast didn’t appear to be cooked to order as the bacon was a bit dry,and I didn’t like the sausage. Aside from that the hotel would have got 10/10

Five Star Staff in a Three Star Hotel. They made the atmosphere so relaxing as they were so friendly but also very professional. The hotel is super clean and lovely decor. The views are INCREDIBLE!

The room was very hot and it was impossible to open any windows. Shame that the dining room had changed from the photos. Music was too loud and insistent and took away from the otherwise lovely dining experience. Obviously this is personal taste though.
