just returned from a weekend at the regent. Fantastic deal inclusive of B&B evening meal and 6 drinks vouchers each night. Hotel was very clean but in desperate need of refurbishment. meals were very basic and entertainment ancient LOL. Have to say we had problem with paint flaking(dampness)in room, the staff were very apologetic and left wine in our room... More

I stayed here in August with my mother for a week. Hotel is run down and certainly not suitable for elderly people. Hotel lift only takes 2 people at a time, its so slow, and when a coach trip arrives, the queues are out to the door waiting for the lift. The place is run down and badly in need... More

Yes the hotel is a bit jaded but after having spent Hogmanay there, the staff, food and entertainment made up for this. A big thank you for all the effort - we had a great time!! More

As always i checked on Tripadvisor to see what was thought of it - and was horrified by the bad reviews...so much so i called the hotel myself. I spoke to a chap called David, who... More

I stayed at the Regent during the same period as the writer and my experience was totally different! I certainly do not recall being served turnip and boiled potatoes one night,never... More

We recently spent a 3 day break at this hotel. The windows in our room were dripping with condensation and covered in black mould, not to mention the dust behind the toilet. The dinner at night wasn't great and for the three nights we had turnip, boiled potatoes and the sweet choice was the same each night. The foyer/bar area... More
