Our 3rd visit here now, kids love it, large pool, comfortable rooms friendly staff. Free wifi. The manager (Rachel?) was really helpful giving us a change of room as we had a buggy and originally we were up some stairs at the back of the hotel, this made such a difference to our stay. My little boy loved the baby pool each day. Food was good, room cleaned nicely each day.
We have booked to return again soon, hopefully on a Tuesday as this, according to the literature I read in our excellent sized room, is a very special day at the Dalmeny as this is when they have the weeky fire alarm test which I would love to experience, especially as the children's entertainment is only on a weekend during term time.
I dream not only of hearing the dulcit tones of the fire alarm test...ringing out like the glorious Westminster Abbey bells, but of being there during a test evacation, assembling at the fire point (which is at the front car park), meeting the fire wardens, chatting for ages about hazards and risks...I love Health & Safety, it could be the reason I've only been married 4 times but that's another story.
My wife, unfortunately, doesn't share my passion and enthusiasm for Health & Safety but she, like me, enjoys the hospitality and experience the Dalmeny offers, so we do have something in common.
We are due back again for 5 nights 8-13th September, if it were possible to have a tour of the fire exits and and any C.O.S.H cages etc it would really make my day. Many thanks again to the Dalmeny team for a great stay. read more
