Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers compact rooms that could use a makeover but are not cramped. The decor could be improved without much effort, though the room charge is quite expensive. The welcoming and helpful service stands out, making up for any drawbacks in the rooms.
The hotel is in a great location for hill-walking enthusiasts, offering a nice atmosphere and friendly bar service. The rooms could benefit from some decor improvements and better ventilation, but the overall experience is pleasant for those who appreciate a cozy setting.
The hotel is located in the small mountain town of Pitlochry, offering a lovely area outside for a drink or meal. The rooms are depressingly dull and dated but the service is friendly and welcoming. The dining experience was of character and breakfast, maintaining a high standard. The facilities were satisfactory, making for an ideal stay if you can overlook the tired room and expensive charges.
The hotel had character and served its purpose, but the rooms could use some improvement in terms of decor and had a lingering smell. The service was lacking and needed better training to match the potential of the venue. The location was decent for getting away from it all and enjoying outdoor activities, but a refurb would make me consider staying again. The dining was cooked to order, which was a plus, but could have been more delightful.
