"The Colessio has great location (Just a short walk up to Stirling Castle), it has great staff, a nice bar and a reasonable breakfast. Like most places in Scotland, the breakfast could benefit from something other than sliced white bread. There are dark breads, full grain breads, full grain crackers (try breakfast in Norway) but they don't seem to come to Scottish hotels.. Nevertheless, in addition to the buffet there were cooked-to-order items such as Eggs Florentine and Eggs Benedict which were excellent. The room had all we need, it was at the back of the building with a view which was not memorable. I guess I need to learn that "King Deluxe" means "View of a Parking Lot." The room was baking in the sun, but fortunately the windows open so you can eventually cool down. (Blazing sun and hot temperatures are not on the list of things that travelers to Scotland usually write about). All in all, a positive experience."
