Accessible HotelSummary of reviews related to the 'Accessible' categoryThe Saltoun Inn presented a mixed experience in terms of accessibility for guests with disabilities. On the plus side, the hotel offers great location, friendly staff, good food, excellent rooms and nice decor, all of which contribute to a pleasant stay. The venue is generally described as accessible and guests appreciated the lift being available for those with mobility issues when it was operational. Additionally, the shower design is highlighted as excellent for preventing anti-slip hazards, making it safer for users.
However, there were several recurring issues that detracted from the overall accessibility experience. The lift was frequently reported as out of order, which posed a significant inconvenience, especially for elderly guests and those in wheelchairs. Some guests noted that they were assigned rooms on upper floors without consideration of their mobility limitations. The lift system itself appeared confusing, exacerbated by a lack of clear instructions from the staff.
Other accessibility issues included unclear disabled parking and a crowded reception area that made it difficult for wheelchair maneuvering. Additionally, there is a notable step up to the front door which could be challenging for those with physical disabilities.
While The Saltoun Inn has several positive attributes in terms of accessibility, improvements such as consistent maintenance of the lift, better signage for disabled parking and more thoughtful room allocation could significantly enhance the experience for guests with disabilities. Show more
