"Beautiful hotel and gardens with a bar and restaurant on-site. We had a lovely time wandering the grounds with a cocktail and even felt a bit like royalty. A breakfast buffet was included and had great options. The rooms are a little older and dated - it was hot in the room - because I don’t think we had a/c - but they were very clean and the beds were comfortable. (Make sure you check out the hotel museum in the basement - it’s really interesting!"

"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."

"very clean room but was on the small side glad we were only there 2 nights staff very helpful and friendly easy to get parked"

"Room was clean, food not great, didn't appreciate getting my drink in a plastic pint glass"

"Room could do with a lick of paint. Beds very comfortable had a great sleep. Breakfast brilliant and plenty of it. We had a bar meal on the second day,again the food was exceptional. Parking no problem. Staff very attentive. The hotel is a 10 minute walk off the main street, so wonderful and quiet. They have a large grassed area with benches within staggering distance of the bar. Perfect sun trap. Will definitely be back"

"Very friendly welcome and lovely breakfast."

"The hotel itself is looking a little tired in places, but the bedrooms have been tastefully redecorated and have everything you need - comfy bed, good bathroom with shower cubicle, hairdryer, coffee machine, kettle, large smart TV, free WiFi and even an ironing board and iron. It wasn't an issue for me, but the lift to the third (attic) floor wasn't working, and it wouldn't have been fun to carry large, heavy suitcases up the narrow stairs. Breakfast was great - a good selection of hot and cold options. The hotel was very busy so we were asked to book in for a time slot for breakfast to help manage the numbers. This worked well though. I didn't use the pool, gym or spa facilities."

"Good location "

"Wonderful hotel near Balmoral with comfortable rooms and staff definitely represented the classic highland hospitality! Great welcome and restaurant on grounds with cozy lobby area near a roaring fireplace. Staff gave great recommendations of the area. Will definitely stay again!"
