A much overrated hotel in my view on first impression it appears to be a very substantial hotel worthy of its star rating but on closer inspection there are parts of it which are very tired and need updating. Our room was on the lower floors not in the main building and was very ordinary in size and furniture. The... More

When I and my colleagues first arrived we were impressed with the appearance of the old building. It is lovely and without closer inspection appeared well kept. But on closer inspection the soft furnishings were almost thread bare and walls were in dire need of updating. We were then informed that our rooms were not in this part of the... More

Yet again we travelled from afar... ( Gloucester for heavens sake!)... to arrive at our little oasis of comfort in the heart of Inverclyde. I have used the Tontine on a regular basis and have never been disappointed in any visit to this great hotel. On arrival we are met by wonderful welcoming management, and the staff are more like...

A warm welcoming hotel with adequate comfortable rooms, staffed by locals knowledgable of the area, and, attentive, courteous and helpful at all times...! The buffet breakfast had a good selection...

My husband and I stayed here when we went to go see his father for the first time in years. The location was perfect for us. Our in-laws were right around the corner and the hotel is close to the train station (10mins walk). There is a very nice museum of the history of Greenock right down the street. It... More
