We arrived at the Portcullis after driving from Glasgow Prestwik Airport and got a welcome break when we reached the hotel. The hotel is a small and charming place where you instantly feel relaxed. The hotel room had a nice standard, the bathrooms were clean and fairly modern. The spaceous rooms are on the top floor passing several stairs and... more

We enjoyed our stay at the Portcullis Hotel. It is right next to the Castle, and we found Stirling to be a wonderful town. The rooms are standard, and the bathroom was clean and recently refurbished. Dinner in the pub was very good, and the pub features cask conditioned ales. more

Shaken by the "city" experience, we took the advice of the apartment owner and hopped the first train to... more

My wife and I spent 1 night here in August, 2005 and enjoyed it very much. The staff for this small hotel is a bit lackluster but we didn't choose The Portcullis to be pampered. The pub on th efirst floor is excellent and the food isn't bad. But the best aspect of this hotel is when you setp out... more

We stayed for one night at the Portcullis on a jaunt from Land's End to John O'Groats (by car!) and thought it was a really Scottish experience. From our comfortable room we looked out over Stirling, towards the Wallace Monument and the hills beyond and from our large en-suite bathroom we looked over the Castle right next door.
