Breakfast
Guests of Dalmahoy Hotel & Country Club had mixed reviews when it came to breakfast. While some guests found the breakfast to be wonderful, lovely and superb with a wide range of options and a great selection to choose from, other guests found it disappointing with limited choices, cold and basic buffet options, not enough milk and no poached eggs or salmon which disappointed some guests. The breakfast staff were described as nice but inattentive with guests having to queue up for breakfast despite trying different times both days. However, a comprehensive range of hot cooked food was available and guests praised the good quality and the omelettes which were a great idea and nicely cooked. Some guests also appreciated the gluten-free bread that was available when asked for it. Overall, breakfast at Dalmahoy Hotel & Country Club was a hit or miss - you might love it or you might not.

Dinner
The dinner experience at Dalmahoy Hotel & Country Club seems to be a mixed bag with guests having varying opinions. Some guests had a wonderful experience at dinner, particularly at the Pentland restaurant where the food was great and tasty. However, some guests found the food to be basic and limited in choice, particularly at the Brasserie restaurant which was also said to have poor service in the evening. The limited choice was a common theme among the reviews with some guests complaining about the lack of vegetarian/vegan options and gluten-free choices. Pricing was also criticised, particularly the overpriced steak dinner and wine list. There were also some service issues with guests waiting long periods for their food and drinks. However, there were instances where staff dealt with issues professionally. Overall, the food quality and service seemed inconsistent with some guests enjoying their evening meals and some not. It may be worth trying both restaurants, as some reviewers found the Brasserie to be closed on their first night and others felt the Pentland was not exceptional but still ok.

Family

Although there were some struggles with room service and limited food selection for kids, the staff went above and beyond to make our stay beautiful and accommodating. The family room was spacious, spotless and had fantastic facilities like a pool and pitch and putt course. The staff made things much easier for us, especially with young children. The hotel's games room was a good addition, while ample parking and a great location for local families made it convenient. However, the breakfast was great value, but there were massive queues, causing stress for families with kids. Despite this, we had a very enjoyable and family-friendly stay at Dalmahoy Hotel & Country Club and we would thoroughly recommend it to families looking for a memorable experience.

Golf
Dalmahoy Hotel & Country Club is a potentially special hotel that offers a great stay for those who enjoy golf and spa. The hotel has two golf courses with options for 9 holes given the weather risks. The surrounding golf course and countryside are beautiful, while the country club has facilities for everyone, including kids who loved the golf. Unfortunately, the golf course wasn't in great condition for some guests, but for others, it was in good condition for winter golf. Nevertheless, the location and golf facilities on the doorstep, along with the lovely grounds/golf course and old castle style country hotel, make it a fantastic option for a quiet and cosy room with a nice view towards the golf course. Guests also loved that it's out of the city and some had a round on the pitch and put. Overall, guests praised the hotel's food, golf, gym and everything was spot on for a relaxing stay.

4 Star
If you're looking for a nice hotel with a great leisure club, Dalmahoy Hotel & Country Club is a lovely property to consider. Although the service may not quite meet the level of a 5-star house, the overall experience is very relaxing and suitable for a 4-night getaway. Additionally, the hotel offers good value for the winter season and makes for a good change of scenery. Keep in mind that if you're particular about your coffee, you won't find instant coffee here! While the food may be priced as though it's 4-star quality, some guests reported that it leans more towards a 2-star rating. Nevertheless, if you're looking for a nice place to stay and enjoy the leisure club, the value here is quite good for a hotel of this class.
