January 2025Slightly out of town but beautiful, quiet setting. Staff are super helpful and rooms clean and spacious. Food is good too with a variety of options either on the bar menu or restaurant. Highly recommend

Didn’t use spa as was exceptionally busy . Building is beautiful, grounds also very nice.

January 2025This review is for the spa only. It’s a lovely spa with a beautiful pool, nice jacuzzi, steam room and sauna. The staff are approachable and friendly. The cleanliness is not great, it needs to be improved - the sinks in the ladies changing area always appear to be dirty and the disabled toilet is not welcoming. Some facilities need upgraded and cleaned more often.

March 2025Extremely Disappointing Anniversary Stay – Poor Organisation & No Care for Guests My partner and I booked a spa package at Ardoe House Hotel for our anniversary, expecting a relaxing and special experience. The package included afternoon tea on arrival, an overnight stay, a massage, and then breakfast the next morning. I booked this over the phone a week in advance with their reservations team, so we expected everything to be properly arranged. However, when we arrived, we were told we were not booked in for afternoon tea—a key part of our package. This was incredibly frustrating, as we had planned around it and arrived hungry, assuming everything was in place. The hotel’s only solution was to reschedule it for 12 PM the next day, immediately after our massage and breakfast, which made no sense and completely disrupted the experience. We were offered the option to order food from the restaurant, but at 4 PM, the only choices were expensive and heavy meals, which we didn’t want at that time of day. There was no real alternative for the light afternoon tea we had been expecting. The receptionist apologized, but offered no meaningful resolution beyond pushing the problem to the next day. Feeling let down—especially since this was supposed to be a special anniversary treat—we ultimately decided to cancel our stay and leave. What made this even worse is that no one from the hotel followed up to acknowledge the issue or offer any kind of apology. For a place that markets itself as a luxury retreat, the lack of organisation, poor communication, and complete absence of customer care were shocking. This was meant to be a memorable anniversary getaway, and instead, it was a complete disappointment. I cannot recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a well-organised, stress-free stay—especially for a special occasion.
