"Wasn’t a suite as advertised, rather a room with a sink. Breakfast was only from 8.30am to 10am which was limited and basic. Staff were charmless. No bar service after 10pm to guests which was ridiculous given we were at a remote location in a Saturday night."

"Brilliant place to stay, the staff were exceptional and helped with a booking error - we will definitely be back"

"A delightful stay with great facilities and fantastic service from the staff. A joy to sit by the river."

"Staff were very helpful and breakfast was lovely but as it was only an overnight stay and we arrived late,we didn’t see much of hotel but what we did see was nice"

"accommodating staff, early start and managed to do a breakfast albeit 10 mins from opening they still managed to accommodate me without a thought. Would highly recommend "

"First too was far too small, asked for upgrade and initially told it would cost £300 so refused. Next day offered bigger room for £120 and took it due to the room size and wardrobe to fit our clothes away. Meals at Breakfast were adequate, dinner menu could be improved by more choice. Sunday roast and Fish/Chips were ace but Steak Pie was not."

"Dinner and breakfast were tasty. Had a delicious Blackberry Martini with dinner. Walked around village , very friendly people and staff was friendly. Very close to Balmoral Castle. "

"First, the positives: the bar was nice and the food fantastic (really well cooked, tasty and good portions for the price), staff were always friendly and polite, too. As a pub - no complaints. However, as a hotel there were definitely concerns and functional issues. If it had been more than one night, we would have demanded a refund and left. Room/bed: We booked a "deluxe king room" that was allegedly a suite, but the reality did not match the description at all. All one room (apart from the bathroom) and the bed was double width, but shorter than normal. The "coffee maker" was a kettle and some sachets. Housekeeping: Not convinced they had been in before we arrived. Bedding was visually clean and not smelly, but not neatly made. An old newspaper was still on the side stand and McDonald's rubbish was still in the bin. TV: no aerial/digital connection, so we had to sign-in to iPlayer to use it. Shower: broken. The head could not be adjusted, its cap just came away in our hands, as it was clearly broken and just balanced back in place, and then we realised there was only a dribble of ice-cold water. We reported the issues and staff did attend the room, but none of it got sorted and an offer to move us to a different room was later retracted because now the whole hotel had plumbing issues..."

"Beautiful, classic room with poster bed in an ancient but well-maintained building, giving a full Scottish feel. The hotel is close to Loch Kinord natural reserve, which provides picturesque and serene walks."
