Fab sea view room - lovely hotel

4.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 24 Apr 2023via mobile
We stayed here for one night on a short break to Bute in a room with a lovely see view. The hotel is very central in Rothesay and just a couple of minutes from the ferry terminal. Everything was clean and tidy and very comfortable. The breakfast pre-ordering was a great idea as it made the service in the morning very efficient. Breakfast was freshly cooked and delicious and much better than you get in many chain hotels.

We had a second floor room which was fine for us. Our only slight criticism was the shower gel sachets which were quite difficult to open but that is very minor!

Will definitely stay here again on our next visit to Bute.
Date of stay: April 2023
Room Tip: There is no lift at the hotel - reception is on the 1st floor and rooms on the 2nd floor
Trip type: Travelled as a couple

Lovely charming hotel conveniently situated in town by the ferry terminal.
The hotel was clean and well maintained. Lots of bathroom amenities, tea and coffee and biscuits in the room.
Lovely breakfast with a vegetarian option also.
We had a sea facing room and the view was beautiful.

In September, 14 of us visited Bute to look at its interesting range of Geology. We booked individually at the Victoria Hotel who knew that we were attending as a group.
We had a range of single and double rooms on the upper two levels, with great views of the waterfront. We arranged evening meals with the hotel on our two evenings who were able to provide us with the sole use of its restaurant and bar. For breakfast we attended at times to suit each of us on tables allocated to groups of up to 4.
The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the food well prepared and served to suit our individual choices.
The manager and his staff coped well with our changing needs over the time we had booked and made us feel welcome.
This is a great place for a group of active retired to share their interests in the great outdoors.

Room tip: Choose a lower room if you fnd stairs dificult

We received a warm welcome and excellent customer service. The hotel was immaculate throughout, comfortable beds and extra touches of luxury like the toiletries range in the bathroom. We enjoyed a delicious breakfast and evening meal in the hotel restaurant. I would recommend this hotel to anyone for value for money. We really enjoyed our stay.

Lovely location! The view from the sea view rooms alone makes it worth staying here. Beyond that, the room is quite comfortable, linens are good, shower is acceptable, staff are nice.
Breakfast here on our first morning was very good. So happy we chose this hotel! (Photo from our window.)

Myself and my husband had never been to Rothesay and were very pleased with our choice of hotel. It was spotlessly clean staff were lovely everyone of them breakfast was amazing. Our room had beautiful sea view. Only criticism is (which we knew about) there is no lift so any mobility problems it's a no no. It is across the road from the ferry terminal so you dont need a car unless you want to explore (which we did) All in all would definitely stay there again
