MARK, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great variety of options at breakfast, something for everyone including any intolerances. Service was great in the bar and at breakfast - staff were very friendly and accommodating to our 3 year old. The room was good - decor fits the building - it's an older palace so don't expect modern room interiors, however the bathroom have been completely

Christopher, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

It’s a grand property which was renovated 20 years ago and showing. The views are wonderful from the property and it’s convenient to Pitlochry. Unfortunately the breakfast and dinner are average and disappointing given the price.

This hotel caters to bus tours… it’s an older crowd and rooms a bit dated. We were put in the basement due to a large tour. Food and drinks were good but overall inside sleepy.

stefan, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Loved this place. It’s like staying on a 21st century titanic but with out the fuss of icebergs and sinking. The view from our room was amazing. The grounds were beautiful and the staff were fantastic. We loved the little museum a fascinating insight into the history of the hotel. Special mention to the staff behind the Stags head bar (x2 Australian lasses and 1 super happy lass from a Balkan country ❤️
Peter, 2-night trip

An amazing place to stay with great history and even a hotel museum in the basement. Full size snooker table, its own pub, live music on a Friday, relaxing swimming pool.
