Best Western Motherwell Centre Moorings Hotel

Our 3rd visit to this hotel, this time we stayed in the first floor in a lovely room overlooking the car park. The room is larger than those behind the bar. The room was nicely furnished. Please note a glass of house white wine is very expensive at this hotel over £6! less

Not a bad hotel , comfortable clean room, staff very friendly and helpful. What really naffed me off was the pint of Blackcurrant & WATER.. £2 this is extortionate for what is essentially WATER... Can't say I'm impressed.. less

this is a lovely hotel, very clean rooms and great staff on reception and restaurant, very pleased with overnight stay, good food, and while waiting for a taxi outside the front entrance the staff were all saying good morning on there way into work not really even knowing that I was a resident. The hotel phoned me prior to staying to tell me there was a function going on in the hotel the night I was due to stay and when they realised I was travelling with a child they moved my room to enable a good nights sleep, very impressed. less

The plus side... lovely building, nice rooms, good staff. Wifi very strong signal. Comfortable beds. On the minus side- shower in room, no pressure, no matter how much you adjust it it was hopeless. Room temperature was very erratic, woke up boiling hot, then it was freezing. Very odd. But the resteraunt was the biggest disappointment- very expensive, for what it is, starter, steak and chips and a couple of drinks-£30+ . Really? If the food was good then I wouldn't have minded, just made me feel ill, way too greasy. The steak was drowned in garlic, completely overwhelmed the taste of the steak, that's not mentioned on the menu. Starter, pakora haggis, could only taste grease, had to leave it. Breakfast was ok, but again, it's so rich and greasy it makes you feel a bit yuk afterwards. Shame really. It's slim pickings in that part of the world, so I guess the moorings will always have a steady stream of business. less

A beautiful old home converted into a hotel, old she may look on the outside but the rooms inside were modern, well equipped with comfortable beds and modern functional bathrooms. The service from the staff was very good, all of them were most helpful , friendly and courteous. We dined in the hotels restaurant which was also very good. The menu was not overly extensive but there was enough there to keep you interested, at first a tad confusing with an evening menu and a normal menu but all the 4 dishes we ordered were tasty, my lamb tangine was spicy and full of flavour. The wine list was adequate. The meals arrived very quickly and again the staff were excellent Breakfast in the morning offered a good selection of hot dishes, the smoked haddock was fantastic. My only complaint is the lack of fresh fruit on the buffet table. The only negatives would be, this is an old hotel over 2 floors, so no lifts to get baggage up to you room, our room while functional was small as was the bathroom, the walls are thin and we did hear a wedding party returning to their rooms at midnight, while this was a minor disruption it did wake us from our sleep. There is not much around this hotel but I believe there is a shopping centre within walking distance Having said all of that we still loved the place, the overall experience was great and as mentioned the staff were great and made us feel right at home. We would definitely return less
