Drinks were reasonably priced and the hotel provided a buffet. However, the service could have been better. Quite often, I went to the bar for a drink only to find it deserted. One time this happened only for me to walk into the foyer to see the barmaid chatting away to her co workers. This was slightly annoying as we were told we could not buy a drink from the restaurant and bring it through to the function room.

Rooms look to have been recently modernised and are clean and orderly with flat screen TV's. Staff are efficient and helpful. I entertained two local friends for dinner, - they hadn't been in for a while and were really very pleasantly surprised by the quality of the dinner we had. In particular, the Rump of Lamb was well executed. A nice Australian Shiraz helped it down. A good nights sleep but it would probably be better to ask for a room on the opposite side to the main road. Breakfast was a bit disappointing - as is usully the case with hot buffets, you get some items hot and some cold ! The scrambled egg was a gelatinous mass. If you wanted a fried one you had to wait. Coffee was also pretty lousy to my taste, and those pats of butter wrapped in a 'parcel', surely it wouldn't cost extra to have the 'pull off top' type . I have given four stars, but probably 3 and a half is nearer the mark because of the poor breakfast.

We have a 6 week old baby and it's so nice when staff are understanding of the difficulties faced at times with a newborn. The staff seated us next the fire so that we were warm and away from drafts. The food is wholesome but doesn't really rock the tastebuds. My starter of breaded Brie was done well and Hubby's lentil soup was piping hot (a must for soup!). Both were palatable and enjoyable. I opted for lasagne which was served with salad and chips. It almost reminded me of a school lunch in that it was comforting. Hubby's burger was well seasoned and quite tasty! Dessert was homemade profiteroles in chocolate sauce. It was tasty but didn't rock the tastebuds. It's a little out the way from Glasgow as it's just outside of Kilwinning. However there's a good sized car park and the staff are simply lovely. Great value for money in that we both had 3 courses and a few non alcoholic drinks for the grand total of £25.

He got a great deal through 5pm with dinner, bed and breakfast for £100 for the two of us. He was a bit anxious about how good it would be as had read some mixed reviews of the hotel online. He had nothing to worry about, as I had a lovely overnight stay, fabulous dinner, and a quality breakfast, in what I thought were lovely surroundings. Situated a few miles from Milngavie on the edge of Strathblane, the hotel is nestled away off the main road in peaceful, leafy surroundings. The decor is exactly what you would expect from a traditional Scottish Country House Hotel, complete with tartan carpets, and oil paintings of Scottish landscapes on the wall, and a lovely cosy fire by the bar with a good selection of whiskeys. The bedroom and accompanying bathroom were really spacious, and the bed was really comfortable giving me the best night's sleep I have had in a long time! As for evening meal, I was really impressed with the standard of the food. The menu changes daily, with a good selection of each course to choose from. I opted for a ham hock terrine with a crackling crumble to start - this was really delicious with a lovely crunch from the crackling crumble. My main course was pan seared chicken breast with black pudding, a selection of market veg, potato dauphinoise and a saffron champagne sauce. The chicken was beautifully cooked, the veg were lovely, the potato dauphinoise was super tasty, and the sauce was packed full of flavour. For dessert I had sticky toffee pudding, this was nice... though probably my least favourite course, as I would have loved more sauce to keep it perfectly moist. STP has a tendency to be a little dry if there is not enough sauce for it to bathe in! Breakfast was well presented with all the usual options available. The staff in the hotel were all really lovely.. very friendly and helpful. If staying for more than a night, there is plenty to do nearby with Mugdock Country Park nearby, Glengoyne Distillery, and Loch Lomond only a little further down the road. I would really recommend this place if you are looking for an overnight stay, not too far from Glasgow. A great deal if you can get it through 5pm also!

It was a long drive from Edinburgh, but worth every mile. The hotel is located in the middle of nature, not far outside of Glasgow to the North West and close to Loch Lomond. We were guided to the restaurant area and got a table at the window. Luckily the sun was shining and it felt warm. The lounge area had a nice big fire place, but unfortunately no servings. The afternoon tea was delicious. Not the usual servings. We started off with our gourmet sandwiches served on sun dried tomato and petit pain breads: smoked ham & pineapple salsa, free range egg mayonnaise & chive, roast chicken, crispy bacon, lettuce & tomato, smoked Scottish salmon & cream cheese, Followed by Goats cheese & red onion confit tart, Tomato & spinach puff pastry crown and Lavender scones and apple & cinnamon scones with raspberry & rose petal preserve & whipped cream Also, a selection of sweets: pistachio macaroon with vanilla cream cheese filling, salted caramel & belgian chocolate encased in butter pastry, sharp creamy lemon shot, marbled rose meringue & chantilly cream The coffee and teas however were nothing special. Service was nice and pleasant. Would I go back? Yes I would and even go for a walk around the hills ........

Not sure if room was ready before 4:00, as no one let us know. Had to ask for a second key, when there were obviously two of us. Headed back to the desk for assistance with radiator; however, no one could explain how it worked. The Room: Nothing has been updated. Had to crawl behind a chair to plug in the phone, when they could have just replaced the wall lamps with ones with USB ports. Things also haven't been maintained (huge crack in bathroom floor tile, mold on ceiling molding, and missing and dirty caulk). The Restaurant/Bar: No food being served to hotel guests because of a private event Thursday evening with no notice at all. Had 2 bags of chips from the bar for dinner. Breakfast was passing at best (no scrambled eggs one morning and hard and gross the next). Filthy carpet, with stains and black stuff stuck to it. Lack of upkeep, and not too appetizing either. Finally: Our first night, we were treated to a small dog running down the hallway barking all the way, twice (about 2:00 a.m.). We were just a few rooms down the hall from Reception, so no idea why staff didn't address it. Then there was the dog in the hotel bar off leash that kept escaping out the door. If you're wondering if we have anything against dogs, we are the ones who kept an eye on her and put her back in the room and closed the door multiple times, so she wouldn't wander off. Dogs at hotel, fine; guidelines and staff follow through, needed. Would have loved to give this feedback to the hotel directly, but at the end of a 2-week trip, the Stirling Highland was the only business that didn't reach out for feedback. Is the Stirling Highland afraid of what people will say, or do they already know?

This has to be by far one of the most underwhelming stays I've ever experienced…read more We paid quite a decent price for this hotel and expected an actual 4 star hotel. Now I don't know what you need to get 4 stars in Scotland but I think the hotel would have a tough time even competing with 3 star hotels. The rooms are extremely outdated and definitely not what I would expect for that price. In the bathroom, the fake marble counter tops are not completely glued together anymore, so it feels like the bathroom is actually falling apart. It honestly feels like the newest thing in the bathroom is the shower curtain that appears to have been put there years ago. The bed also seems to have aged quite a bit - the mattress doesn't even lie flat on the bed anymore. That being said, the bed sheets fall off at every single movement as they're not fitted anymore... The hotel rooms had extremely thin walls and you were able to hear everything that was going on in the hallway and every single step people were taking. Additionally, the floors felt like they were going to break every second. BUT the biggest disappointment was BY FAR the breakfast. First of all, you have to wait quite a while for a staff member to check you in so you can get to the buffet style breakfast. We paid extra for the breakfast but should've rather went to a local café. Almost everything was out of stock at 9am (breakfast lasts until 10:30 on Sundays) and when asking the staff members for things such as more toast, they gave an annoyed look and came back with about 10 slices of bread that were gone in seconds. Not to mention that there is no such thing as cheese or salami or anything. The Nutella was empty too. The worst thing was the coffee which tasted like a mix of instant coffee and chlorine. There also was no juice left and all the staff was doing was standing literally right next to the juice containers and not filling them up but rather appeared to have private conversations. When entering the hotel, you are greeted with a nice smell of moisture combined with mold. Only good thing was the view which was nice and the size of the rooms which sadly doesn't make up for all the negative aspects of this hotel. Honestly would never come back to this so called 4 star hotel.

Granted this can make it slightly tricky to find, particularly if you're a visitor to the city. This is a minor niggle. My mum and sister booked a room here on a recent visit. (There was genuinely no room at my place, honest.) It's cheapness and location were the deciding factors, I wasn't expecting too much and since we'd be out and about most of the time it wouldn't matter anyway. It was just a bed, you know? However, I was really surprised by just how lovely the place was. Clean, nicely designed, friendly staff, en suite shower, TV, wi fi, computer, tea and coffee making facilities. You're not supposed to get all that for £25.00 a night are you? Did I mention the full Scottish Breakfast buffet and free parking? A real bargain. The only really negative thing to come from the experience was setting foot back in my own flat, which is in a building structurally identical to the hotel. They had done such a good job on the decor and upkeep of the hotel, my home suddenly felt cold and unwelcoming.
