For starter we had the tempura prawns and for main we had a lovely steak cooked to perfection a nice coffee and felt... More

Stayed here with my fiancé and our 2 year old for 2 nights. The hotel is right on the beach practically and has the most lovely view of the sea and beach but still is only 5-10 minute walk from the shops. The hotel reception, bar and restaurant downstairs is very modern and done up lovely with sofas and tables,... More

When we arrived at the hotel it look lovely and that followed when we arrived at reception. The staff were very friendly and could not be more courties but it was let down when we visited the room. The room we stayed in was a twin - a bit small but ok for the two of us- but the bathroom... More

Whilst we appreciate this customers opinions please note At no time did the customer ask to be moved to a different room, if he experienced difficulties with the shower size. His complaints about housekeeping have been refered to staff. The customer acknowledged that food on Saturday was delicious. On Sunday we had run out of some dishes. This was true,... More

The Horizon hotel is arguably one of the best hotels around in terms of atmosphere, friendlieness of staff, comfort and most of all the quality of the restaurant! The rooms are very comfortable with free wifi and flatscreen tv's and if you get a seaview room then the view across the bay over to Arran are stunning especially as the... More

Have stayed several times in and around Ayr and the Horizon beats the lot for quality and affordability. Food and service excellent, esp the dinner. Room was very quiet so slept well. Shower a bit lacking in power but that was the only concern for us. We'll definitely return. More

Stayed here just for one night but felt it was quite on the pricey side considering what the room was like. Opening a dated window was a set of ladders and a brick wall so the curtains got closed to make the room feel nicer. Pillows weren't comfy as they were completely flat which shows its been well used, decor... More

This seafront hotel was perfect in every way. As a wheelchair user, it is so difficult to get a hotel which meets all your need, but the Horizon did it all. There is a ramp to the main entrance, a small lift to reception and a lift to help in and out of the bath. The hotel was spotlessly clean... More

Great location right on sea front, easy walk to shops. Room was lovely with a sea view(had to pay extra for this but it was worth every penny). Food was excellent and staff were very helpful. More
