For the price, room was large and in good condition. Breakfast was worth paying the extra cost. Pool was not in operation while we were there and we did not park in car park because of concerning reviews. We would stay again.

This hotel is in a great location and has lovely staff. It needs some under the skin tlc, every thing on the surface is clean, but the underlying systems (heating, plumbing baths, windows, gym equipment) are in need of an update or servicing. I know thus will be expensive, but if not done soon it will really show.

The Stirling Highland Hotel is clean, and nearby to restaurants, highly-rated excursions, and historical destinations. Parking is available to guests and there are plenty of spaces (just remember to follow the prompts for registration of your vehicle per the hotel). A spa, restaurant, and bar are all available to guests on the property. I would highly recommend the Stirling Highland Hotel. We would stay again!

This hotel is a former school, and it's an architectural treat to see and stay in. Plenty of free parking on the hotel grounds, even in the center of Stirling. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Very convenient to everything in Stirling, which is a tourist destination without a tourist feel (no tweed/tartan shops, etc.--just a regular Scottish town with a modest castle on the top of the hill).

The perfect hotel in the perfect location

Our first trip to Stirling and The Stirling Highland Hotel was the perfect hotel for the trip. A beautiful building with friendly helpful staff located in the centre of Stirling. So we were able to park the car for two days and walk everywhere. The only time we drove was up to the Wallace Monument.
