Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Poppies Hotel is often described as a pretty and cozy place to stay, with many guests highlighting the spacious and comfortable rooms that feature lovely views. The rooms are well-appointed, some including nice touches like towel warmers, and offer tea, coffee, and hot chocolate. The breakfast receives high praise for its variety and quality, including options like haggis and fresh fruit; however, the bar's early closing time at 7 pm has been noted by some guests. The hotel's location is ideal, with a pleasant walk into town along the cycle path and close proximity to restaurants.

the bar closed early. it closed at 7 pm. i wanted to enjoy a drink later in the evening. the towels in the bathroom were a bit thin. i prefer something a bit more plush.
