Golden Lion Hotel

Pros: Perfect location, nice view from the rooftop.

Cons: Average breakfast, the bed was broken.

Pros: Location is perfect for bars and restaurants.

Cons: Back entrance from car park is a little tatty.

Pros: Central location. Comfortable & welcoming foyer. Nice dining room.

Cons: Breakfast selection was ruined by the fact that on our 3 mornings it was never hot. In fact mainly tepid. No local beer in the bar. Must be a disappointment for tourists. Mattress in bedroom was very ...

Pros: Breakfast was lovely

Cons: Lift was awful, slow & took ages, would usually just take stairs but husband is in plaster cast so had to use it as we were on 3rd floor

Great Location for a Place to Sleep

Pros: The Golden Lion is perfectly located 5 minutes from the train, and at the heart of Stirling. There was dozens of pubs, restaurants and shops to keep you entertained, the room and bathrooms were clean, and the staff were lovely and had no problems holding my bag until check-in time. I was even able to squeak into a top-floor room with an amazing view over Stirling and of the surrounding hill-side - spectacular!

Cons: While the exterior and main floor are exquisite and inviting, the hotel rooms left a lot to be desired. The beds were comfortable enough, the bathroom was functional, however it is out-dated and has an off-colour that doesn't come out from years of use. Luckily it was big and spacious - a great break to stretch your legs after a busy day.
