The staff are very helpful at reception.I hadnt pressed a room for 2 and phoned to confirm the mix up and a staff member rectifyed this immediately for me.I thought the deal for 2 nights with dinner was excellent value.
The rooms have been updated with new wallpaper however the furniture hasn't.Its very mixed and matched.They used to have fridges in rooms also which was great but they took these away.Room was cold as well as radiator and whistled if you tried to turn on so it was not working but we used extra duvet from the another bed luckily.
One bed was newer so slept in it but the other was sunken in middle and had springs sticking out.So couldn't sleep in it.
Had dinner both nights at hotel.First night was excellent.Enjoyed a beef stew however second night tried cujun chicken pasta which was awful.It was chewy chicken like an old sole of a shoe.I couldn't eat anything but the garlic bread.We also had cocktails which were lovely however quite pricey and one was half spilled by waitress.
Alot of staff in the restaurant but can be slow at times especially with head manager gossiping instead of serving.Older lady who was waitresses was fantastic and so helpful.
Breakfast is help yourself buffet.Plenty to eat and lots coming out.Great value and very impressed.
Enjoyed our stay just a few bits that could do with being sorted but we always love to come for a stay and again most of the staff are lovely I'm the building.

The shops in town and The Rivergate Shopping Centre are all within fairly easy walking distance.
Hamiltons, 2 High St. The Carrick 112 High St and Adesso, 6 Glasgow Vennel are all good eating places but there are plenty of cafes and takeaways to suit everyone.
The Harbour area is a good place to spend some time at.

Has to be the beach and other surrounding beaches.
Has to be the beach and other surrounding beaches. We stayed in a heat wave which was fantastic. I know Irvine as I grew up there and was back visiting family. Some lovely restaurants and bars. Lots of different dog walking areas and a lot of dog friendly beaches. Visited Troon, Largs (Viking festival was on) Ayr (Ayr Show was on) and various other locations of interest.

Lovely historic town, home of the Scottish Maritime Museum.
Lovely historic town, home of the Scottish Maritime Museum. We stayed at Harbourside which was very quiet. Very friendly place, we ate at the Ship Inn, they were fantastic hosts, beautiful food and dog friendly. They even gave us some milk for our morning coffee because we couldn’t find a shop open and it was getting late. Unfortunately we didn’t have time to explore the area much, we had to move on
Braidmead House is right in the centre of Irvine, easy access to all routes to enable exploration further in the area, not far from the ferry to Arran and an easy drive from Glasgow Airport. There is ample parking. The choice of breakfast is very good and the food itself was excellent. The room is a good size and the ensuite (shower) clean and in good order. There is a very comfortable large client lounge with a TV and a well stocked honesty bar. The owner - Diane was kind, helpful and very approachable.
Very conveniently located little guest house that I have visited on numerous occasions. Really handy as a launchpad for the local area. Lovely location right in Irvine Harbourside, which is conveniently located to numerous quality places to eat. Free car parking outside.
Basic, but comfortable & great accommodation. Clean, and friendly staff. Happened to walk past the house-keeper, Wallace, as I was leaving, who offered to lift my bags to the car for me.
Irvine bay is beautiful, relaxing, and has everything needed for a short stay. It is very cosy and great that it has a dining area and fridge and the patio outside is lovely for a relaxing seat in the sunshine. The shower room is modern and the skylight is a perfect addition. The high ceilings in the main room make it feel very spacious. Just loved it.
We have stayed here in this accommodation before as it is just what we want. Convenient when meeting up with friends and family the pubs are excellent too which is very handy. The Chinese takeaway, Wong Chiu, Ayr Road, Irvine is very good too.
The shopping centre is clean and tidy. The beach is handy and the people are extremely friendly in the area
Attention to detail and high standard of room service. Staff very loyal, conscientious and knowledgeable about the history of the surrounding area. We were impressed with future developments of the area. Easy parking very close by and walking distance to undercover shops. We would definitely recommend this property and would love to stay again.
Fantastic stay at this hotel. We stayed for 2 nights in order to attend a wedding at a nearby venue. The room was spotless could not fault it. Breakfast was included and again couldn’t fault it. Staff were very friendly and the owner went over and above to accommodate any request. Highly recommend if you are on the area.
Our whole stay was excellent. Diana was so friendly and helpful and the breakfast choice was superb. It is so near to the centre of the town, which is also really nice, with a very interesting harbour area. We felt as if we had come to stay with a friend in their home.
Loved everything about the Harbourside hotel have been a few times before and will continue to go again ,Cannot fault it in any way excellent value for money ,Did not have to be out of pocket for transport as everything we needed and more was nearby.
The room and bathroom were perfectly clean, the bed was comfortable. The property was situated close to the harbour and ideal for seeing surrounding area. We will definitely stay there again if we need to spend a night in Irvine.
Lovely apartment in the centre of Irvine, everything we needed was close by. Ideal base for exploring the area, the beautiful beach, the Isle of Arran and the train station (for day trips to Glasgow) was just a short walk away.
The hotel was a pleasant surprise, self serve was easy and efficient. The room was cozy and just right for a one night stay on our journey! We got parking right in front and the gelato shop next door was an added bonus!
Very friendly staff, dog friendly hotel <3, very clean, refurbished bedroom. We booked the hotel on the same day and the price was very competitive. Very happy and positively surprised with overall experience
The interior design was very modern, and the bathroom was fantastic - usually water pressure in small hotels are not up to the standard. Bonus point for providing chocolate biscuit too!
We work in the area every 6 months and always book this hotel. It's ideal for us as we can get in from work, get something to eat/drink, and a good night's sleep.
Friendly atmosphere created by the wonderful staff, excellent food, clean rooms and facilities. Another positive experience staying at the Gailes Hotel.
