Liked: Cleanliness
The location was fantastic, especially if you took a train to Stirling, like I did. It was only about two blocks away. Restaurants were all around, within easy walking distance of the castle. The bed was comfortable and clean. They provided excellent tea and little goodies as well. Everything was great except the bathtub had a lot of black soap scum and even some hair at the far end. Luckily, I keep Clorox wipes with me; I cleaned the tub when I noticed it, as it was after hours and no one was around.

Nice spot
The room was good size and the location was great. Parking was a little complicated. And the many pathways was a bit confusing at first. But everyone was helpful and there's lots nearby for looking and eating.

I had a delightful stay at Friars Wynd. Check-in is not open (or an option) until noon as reception is the bar. I was hoping to check my bag early but wonderfully the cleaning staff had been through and my room was ready for an early check in. There are no room numbers, just names. I stayed in Ness which overlooked the road out front. The room was nice with a super soft bed and an iron burn in the carpet floor. This reminded me of my past ironing snafus. There was some noise from the street as people walked. If you need absolute quiet, be warned, but it was not a problem for me. Private guest entrance to come and go as wanted. Walkable to pretty much everything! Would absolutely stay again!

A taste of olde Stirling/Scotland.
All fine, the Receptionist was very friendly and professional, a definite asset to the hotel. She had excellent taste in music too. There should be a better choice of wine behind the bar but apart from that, all good.

Couples stay over for night out in Stirling
Lovely night staying over at Friars Wynd a beautiful little find entering through the bar entrance to our boutique room upstairs “Katrine” was very comfortable and the shower was amazing! The small sink was pretty powerful and we accidentally forested the tap over the sink bowl. Staff on check in gave the warmest welcome detailing everything we needed to know. 100% recommend this lovely place slap bang in the middle of Stirling. With easy access to the train station and shops.

It was challenging for me being disabled entering the hotel from the car park then having to go so many stairs with luggage to the reception then back up the stairs again to the bedroom

We stayed in the back apartment….getting there was a bit isolated in the back alley. There is a car park right behind but if parking there you always have to top up the fee another car park is about 400 meters away and has 24 hr rate. The apartment is a bit dated and could use some repairs

Great location, and overall good property. Dining on site was not very accessible, and parking was tough. But overall a good one night stay visit.

Liked: Amenities
The bedrooms area is above the bar / restaurant and does not open until 2pm, so don't go before then as no-one will be there. There was no working lift installed (yet / maybe never) so be prepared to carry luggage upstairs and down. On the plus side, the woman in the bar handling everything was very efficient & Friars is close to the railway station and the local shops, but it's unlikely I'll stay again as I prefer classic hotels. Also, check if there's a ghost in the Katrine room.

Property is great, the girl at the bar stayed around for an extra half hour until we arrived via train. She was friendly and explained everything well. My only concern was this was listed as a hotel with a 24/7 front desk which wasn’t true at all. The bar closes and you get a key to the side door to get in. We unfortunately made the bartender stay late after closing because we had no idea there would be no one there if we arrived late in the evening. No issues with the hotel or staff, just with the listing being inaccurate.
