I stayed for 1 night. The hotel is next to the Kilmarnock football ground so not a great location. However everything else was good. Check in, friendly local staff, modern spacious room, free wireless internet, excellent room service and cooked breakfast, potato cakes were great!

There is access to a leisure facility a short walk from the hotel. Didn't try it.

Would rate as a 5 stars but for the location. Would definitely stay again.

We went for an over night and we were very pleased with hotel. Lovely and clean very modern. We were in a room with view to the courtyard so lovely view. We had lunch in bar which was lovely. Meal at night was mouth watering still think about it to this day service was also very good, our only down side to this was lack of ambiance lights were bright and no music, would have been nice to be a bit more romantic. Breakfast was ok we did notice there was room service and said if we went back we would do that instead of going to the busy buffett. Would recommend its a lovely hotel IMO stands up to its 4* shame its not in a nicer setting was a bit shocked to see it stanging in middle of kilmarnock football clubs car park not sure how this would have been on a match day!!

My Husband and I (sound like the Q of E!!) have just returned from Kilmarnock where we went for the weekend for a family party and my man's business meeting.
We stayed at the Park Hotel for 2 nights - I can recommend it to anyone who wants to stay in the area- not far from the centre of Kilmarnock and obviously next door to the football ground. Think this could be a problem if they are playing at home as it could be noisy and busy round the car park. The rooms were very good and maid service and room service excellent. The staff were young but very helpful and courteous-breakfast was great. Enough to set you up for the day!! - Just lacked a bit of atmosphere in the bar area as it sounded like a swimming pool at times due to the style of the building. Soon rectified that though when all my relatives hit the bar!!!!
Had a great time and would not hesitate to return if we needed to.
(top tip) book through laterooms.com for a discount - we saved a bundle on the hotel website price!!!

“Quiet and happy in Kilmarnock”

2/2 found this review helpful

Very good find in Kilmarnock. The biggest pluses: the room was very quiet--no vending machine outside, no ice machine, no elevator, no odd noises in the room or hallways. And, quiet outside! Our room faced a courtyard on the ground floor, but you could hear a pin drop.
Also, the bed was not unduly hard, nor soft--just right. Bedding clean, crisp, and not as rough as many others in this price range.
The room was fairly large for European standards. The bathroom had an excellent shower over the tub.

The staff were very helpful, attentive, and friendly.
The food was very good as well. My son ate off the children's menu and enjoyed a decent pizza.
It must be fairly new--everything was white and spotless. It had a cheerful aire about it.
Basically, the hotel is a good, clean, happy, quiet place. I was pleasantly surprised because we stayed at the Howard Park once and while we liked the staff and the meals the rooms were pretty small, the television small and basic, and the hotel was a bit worn. We pictured something like that, and so were surprised on arrival. The television was good sized and had many channels.
You don't get any big atmosphere, but the clean, sleek modern was a bit of a relief.
Breakfast was fine, even though the staff didn't really come round to offer coffee or tea to us, but when I hunted the waitress down she did bring it. Also, was not asked if I wanted toast and didn't realize they served it at breakfast until leaving and saw other diners with toast But I wouldn't blame the overall hotel for the lapses in the restaurant staff.
Only downside, but worked fine for us ,is that since it is built within a rugby park complex on certain days and certain times of the day (ie when there is a rugby game) the taxi cannot get closer than across the street. No bother, just got out of the taxi and walked across the street. Ask if you book how to handle luggage in or out of the hotel if the taxi can't get in when you arrive or depart.
I would definitely book there again if in Kilmarnock.
We paid about $150 per night, for a room with a double bed, breakfast included. My guess is you might get a better rate.
We literally got the last room in town and so were very happy to get it and again, surprised it turned out so nice. It is not within walking distance to the town center, but I don't know of any hotel in Kilmarnock that is.
