Nice atmosphere, friendly staff

Very well looked after polite with it 😊☺️😊

Great food and excellent service

It's been a while since we have visited a Buzzworks - used to frequent Elliott's back in the day! The Lido was a great place to eat, choice and quality of food, efficient and friendly service and ambience all right up there. Only marked you down on drinks as there was no 0% Kopparberg available, and my 0% Erdinger was a tad mmmrrrr - though that's probably my poor choice!We're already planning our next trip down from Glasgow, ideally on public transport so we can start to try your wine list! Thanks :)

I always book online and well in advance so we get a table in the conservatory area. It was the first time my dining partner had been and the food didn’t disappoint. So much so she is already thinking of returning soon! We ordered a sweet to share, and had to mention to the waitress that we had been waiting a while. She apologised and so did the chef by giving us an extra bowl of ice cream. Can’t complain when the great service makes up for a wee delay. My next girlie catch up lunch is already booked on line.

Great place for food, very nice setting next to the marina. Staff were great, we had some v small issues with the service but all very well handled , with good humour from all 👍

Had a fantastic meal The service was very good I will definitely go again the next time I'm in Ayr

Service was excellent . Very busy but nothing was a problem . Food was delicious and would definitely return. Big portions with lots of flavour

Extensive menu, generous portions. It can be a bit noisy when it's busy, which is most of the time. But happy to return anytime.

Had a great overnight here courtesy of a raffle win from STV. From first arriving you get a great feeling about the place. Parking was plenty and check in was very smooth. Rooms aren't as modern as some we've stayed in but still very comfy. Beware of operating the shower as you have to be under it to adjust the knob to turn it hot or cold which isn't a great design unfortunately. Grounds were beautiful and easy to see why it's such a hot wedding venue. Food was amazing, staff were lovely and we did the spa which was very relaxing. Came out of there in time to see the 2nd half of the football in the sports bar. Bar had lovely staff who made sure we were well looked after. Site has golf as well if that's your scene. Breakfast was great and I'd highly recommend this hotel 😊

Amazing food, and many gluten free options, including sticky toffee pudding!

We have been tonight to celebrate our mums 50th birthday. There was nothing that was too much for Donna, she made us feel like old friends. The service and food was 10/10. Thank you, again xo

First time flying from Prestwick, loved it. Amazing experience, from arriving at check in desk right through to lunch and drinks the staff were fantastic. Relaxed, happy and a great start to our holiday

Had the most amazing meal would definitely come back agin next time I’m back in Troon
