I arrived in Fife just as the weather that weekend was perfect across Scotland....and the county was bursting at the seams. After many phone calls, I found The Caledonian, and was just thankful to find a bed for the night.
Check in was very quick and excellently handled; even the offer of carrying my suitcase was greatly welcomed and such a rare event these days! The room was large, spacious, clean and functional. the bed was one of the best I've ever slept in, soft pillows and ever so clean linen; full marks to Housekeeping. One small point; could the hotel place "Danger, Hot water" signs on the Hot water taps. It was lovely and piping hot, but it should almost carry a Government Health Warning!
I'd been travelling all day and decided to eat in from Room Service. Food quality was very good, though my food preferences as noted by Reception (items I'm allergic to!) did not reach the Kitchen, as the ingrediens I could not eat within certain ordered dishes arrived anyway! Still, I managed to move them to one side, but it was annoying knowing I'd gone to great lengths to order as I wished, and the levels of communication failed to reach the kitchen! Plus, if you order a meal via Room Service, why can't it be accompanied by condiments (salt pepper etc)?
Breakfast - no complaints, attentive staff, though they were few in number, with some personnel having obvioulsy not made it into work. Well cooked food, well presented.
Check out was marred by the receptionist being more concerned to have an all out argument with one of the errant missing personnel who'd just phoned in to query their rota scheduling. I, as a paying guest, was a mere interruption as she concentrated on arguing with her absent colleague on the other end of the phone!
But overall, I'd rate the hotel well. There are a few tweaks here and there that are required, plus some attention to lines of communication, but all in all, an enjoyable and comfortable stay; I will return.
