Was there for a week. Hotel is fine. At one time was probably a very nice hotel but the rooms seem a bit dated and need some refurbishing. A definite lack of electrical outlets in room. The daily cookies were a nice touch

A lovely hotel, close to everything, with on site restaurants and bars. Welcoming staff and good, honest rooms. Not too far from Glasgow, but far enough away to be a little quieter. We used it as a base to attend the Highland Gathering at Dunoon… a quick ferry ride and Dunoon and it’s environs await.

Decent place to stay
Back in the day the Tontine used to be quite a grand hotel, now it’s a little faded. However the room was clean, bathroom looked like it was done more recently although the shower head really needed a clean. Staff were pleasant and night porter was very helpful when I arrived at 11.30pm. It looks much better than the photo!

Disappointed
Lovely hotel, but the room was very tired and the mattress was in need of replacement. Awful pillows! Breakfast vas ok, but inconsistent in the quality of cooking - fried eggs solid - new tray. No Scottish delicacies, marmalade or Larne sausage . Disappointing
