Okay, but dated

Very dated and worn. Bathroom and bedroom is tiny and very little room. Felt a bit rushed to have breakfast as we had to fill in a form the previous night and picking an exact time to eat for the next day. Came down to load the car and staff were waiting for us to have breakfast and felt like we were being pressured to sit down. Breakfast was good and no issues. Hotel just feels like it needs serious updating

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
First impression was "very rundown and tacky" and in desperate need of a spruce up. It needs a good tidy up in the front. Not very welcoming on arrival. It was clean enough and staff were friendly but definitely very overpriced for what you got. Breakfast was cold and barely adequate. Not somewhere to return to.

Close to train station

Initially the condition of the front door and interior reception areas appear to be slightly unkept, there was wooden panel that had fallen off front door and dim lighting that felt intentional to hide things. There was also a really strong perfume smell throughout the property that also felt intended to hide things. However my room was clean and comfortable, with extras like robe and snacks. Staff was friendly and welcoming and breakfast hit the spot! Hotel was chosen for proximity to the train station, which is excellent!

Room dark and in need of a major refurb but clean. Bathroom very basic and definitely needs decorating. Paper torn and hanging off wall and sealant cracked and mouldy round bath and toilet. Woken at 6 am by very noisy radiator. Also was locked out returning at 11pm as no one had informed us that we needed to phone and say that we would be "LATE". eventually let in by a night watchman after banging on several doors and windows. Car park unlit and entrance to accommodation felt very dark and unwelcoming. Breakfast was very good and restaurant had obviously been upgraded at the expense of the bedrooms. Also as accommodation is on first floor with stairs and no lift, totally unsuitable for disabled or those with mobility issues. Even at the rate charged vastly overpriced.

Great stopover

Great location. Great food at very good value on the early bird 3 course menu. Breakfast included in room price. Bathroom door didn’t close properly. Lovely view from sea view room but a little noisy with traffic (I should’ve thought of that). Very friendly helpful polite staff.

Very nice and helpful staff. Hotel is brilliantly located (5 min.from train stop and 15 min. walk to the ferry to Isle of Arran (gorgeous! well worth a visit). Lauriston Hotel is a good value. Food isnt gourmet, but tasty and filling. For budget minded travelers, well worth considering.

We had our ferry time changed by CalMac from convenient to inconvenient so we decided to travel up the day before and stay in Ardrossan overnight. Wasn’t expecting much but the Lauriston over delivered in every dept. From a lovely huge room with modern en-suite lost in its vast expanse, to the cute table and two chairs in the window bay with a fantastic sea view. My wife thought the beds on the hard side - I thought the firmness was perfect - we both slept like logs though Breakfast was lovely - never sure about ordering the night before so when I was not so hungry the next morning I was worried I might offend - in the end they flexed perfectly around what I wanted - and everything was perfectly cooked and very good quality. Finally the service - from initial calls to check arrangements to check in, to reception arrival, to breakfast service all the staff were just lovely full stop - we can’t wait to go to Arran again but next time we’ll have a couple of days at the Lauriston to extend our holiday!
