I have stayed here in the past as it is very central for my business at the university. The location is excellent but parking is a problem. I was fortunate in finding a spot right away but the seagulls certainly left their mark!! (not the hotels fault of course and a member of staff was very kind in providing some... More

The staff are extremely friendly and helpful on your arrival with spacious well appointed rooms awaiting you. The menu may not be the largest but... More

The young staff very polite; professional; professional and welcoming, a lesson the bar manager could learn as the one hic up on our whole break was his disappointing manner. Would not serve us...

I am a carer for an older man with learning difficulties and this is the second time we have stayed at this hotel. All the staff were friendly/helpful and made us feel very welcome at all times, nothing was too much trouble. We stayed in the family room (215) which had a kingsize bed, 2 single beds, a shower/bath and... More

Enjoyed a super meal here recently. We were a party of 5 and everybody was pleased with their meal choices, even hubby who opted for the chilli and finally found that after being described as 'hot', it actually was, very rare in his opinion. The service was excellent, all staff were attentive. We asked for a different table initially but... More

This was our first stay at Greyfriars, but it won't be our last! We've had the odd pint there over the years it has been open, but somehow it had slipped under the radar as far as accomodation is concerned. We have now rectified this and are very happy we did. The room was spacious with double aspect windows, clean... More
