  Closure without notice

  Liked: Just was informed that hotel, months after accepting our bookings for June 2025, has decided to voluntarily close for renos. Leaves myself and 11 other gentleman golfers in the lurch for accommodations at the peak of the season. Outrageously poor behavior for a business. Simply terrible - no amount of renovation will make up for such bad management.

  Terrible communication

  Liked: I was due to stay at the Ardgowan hotel with my fiancee on the 24th and 25th January 2025. However, the hotel has closed for renovation. This was not communicated to us in any form, leaving me to find alternative arrangements with minimal notice. If I hadn’t been looking at the website ahead of time to see about adding an additional day to the booking, we would’ve turned up on the 24th and found it closed leaving us without accommodation. We booked via the hotel website and the only email received from the hotel was the booking confirmation. Very poor customer service.
