There are many reasons to visit Macdonald Forest Hills Hotel and Spa and these quickly become reasons you never want to leave.
If you ever tire of just looking out at our spectacular setting - however unlikely that may be - the hotel has everything you need to keep you entertained. Its difficult to believe you are under 20 minutes from Stirling - 40 minutes from Glasgow and less than an hour from Edinburgh. Its the perfect antidote to city life.
Our luxury four-star hotel has had a full redesign in 2017 upgrading our bedrooms and public spaces to create the perfect country retreat. If you like to kick back and relax - unwind by the pool or enjoy a soothing spa treatment. If you are keen to fill your lungs with the freshest of air - get out and about and explore with a countryside walk - a swing in the trees at Go-Ape or hire a bike and get off-road. Whatever the weather throws at you we have got the perfect spot to enjoy it. In the sunshine our terrace is the only place to be with an indulgent Afternoon Tea. Should the weather be less favourable there is no cosier place than in front of a crackling open fire in the lounge.
Its easy to see why our picture perfect location is chosen for memorable exclusive use weddings - out of town day trips and a popular Sunday lunch destination. Just be warned - you may never want to leave.

We had a wonderful stay in the Red Maple self catering lodges at Forest Hills. The lodges were very spacious, clean and well equipped. The decor was cosy and quaint with a nostalgic feel. Beds were comfy and the view was stunning. We used the spa each day and the children loved the swimming pool, table tennis, play area and pool tables. The children also enjoyed picking a film from the dvd list at reception each night. Staff throughout the whole complex were pleasant and helpful. We received a very warm welcome when we arrived and throughout our stay. Stunning location and access to local mountains to explore. I was worried when my husband booked this as a surprise due to the previous reviews I had read but please ignore them. Forest Hills is a quirky, comfy and tranquil resort with a wholesome charm. We will be back.

The outside could do with tidying up a bit as there are a few large potholes, however the room, staff food and general ambience is all very good. The food choices were exceptional and the food itself was served by a group of very enthusiastic younger staff, who worked tirelessly. The buffet style breakfast had the most amazing and delicious cooked breakfast, with proper Scottish porridge and cereals etc. Bed was very comfortable and hot water was boiling ! Only gripe is the outside passageway, which linked the accomdation , which was cold.

Very Good
MManbahaozhugeliangThe room was clean, IHG Hotel Group management, there was an elevator, and the overall feeling was good.
MMasa8432I was a little worried after reading the reviews, but it was higher than expected after checking in.
First choice, there are hundreds of years old houses nearby, very emotional, turn left 50 meters up is an old prison, 100 meters from the Internet is the church, and 200 meters away is the castle
Secondly, the cleanliness of the room is also good, there is no peculiar smell.
Then, in terms of facilities, there are swimming pools, hot spring pools, and saunas. The general level of breakfast is three stars, because no cheese is provided.
Finally, the service is also good. When you check in, you can enter the license plate to guarantee two-day parking, and everything else has reached the four-star standard.
GGuest UserThe environment is beautiful, with large lawns and landscapes, and the room facilities are comfortable and satisfying. There are restaurants and shops on foot, and parking is convenient
GGuest UserThere are supermarkets and gas stations nearby, free parking, plenty of parking spaces, very convenient. Stirling Castle is very close, 10 minutes' drive. We arrived at Glasgow Airport early and arrived at the hotel at 11 o'clock, but we were not allowed to check in early, so we had to leave our luggage at the front desk first. We had been on a flight for more than ten hours and wanted to go to the hotel to take a good shower and take a nap before going out to play, but this hotel was unwilling to let us check in early.
LLanThe location is perfect. On the half hillside, the castle is going up. Going down is the place where the commercial street eats. The hotel room is relatively spacious and relatively new. Parking is free. The female front desk on the day of the stay was very friendly and very welcoming. I also said that I saw the Chinese credit card for the first time and felt very good. However, breakfast, originally done very well, half buffet, half-meal, good quality, that is, the price was told at the time of check-in, if you add two people 15 pounds on the spot, I also confirmed it because I felt cheap. As a result, the check-out received 19.8 pounds. The gap is not big, but when the argument is different, the front desk of the next day does not confirm it, and it directly denies it. The perfect experience was deducted from the next day's female front desk.
GGrace BGood central location. Friendly staff. Reading other reviews I think it depends which room you get. Our window wouldn’t open and we could hear a noise like water pipes or tank banging at 5 min intervals all the time and through the night. The shower was scalding hot 1 minute, freezing the next. Plug holes and under bath taps were just disgusting. As were the ledges and silicone round the bath and behind the bathroom door. Pricey for the state of the bathroom. The beds were fine. Not sure if I would stay here again.
