Crieff Hydro

Was a so-so stay. Most of the staff were friendly but the place is just far far too big. Breakfast buffet is a mad blur of people and there are few adult only areas, 1 small bar basically. Room was OK but kind of tired, rooms very warm too and no A/C

Mixed up the rooms. Poor service. Expensive. Stile over substance.

Breakfast great Dinner terrible staff not very friendly or helpful

Room was fine and staff all friendly and helpful. Let downs were quality of food and frozen calamari and tinned olives don’t match the prices. Pasta was not fresh and the tomato sauce had no flavour. Not worth the prices charged. Secondly, when paying £200 for a room I don’t expect to pay an additional £50 to use the adults only swimming pool (Victorian baths).

To be honest, there were a lot of young families with children who were not always supervised.

Plenty activities and space to chill.

Relaxing however room would have benefitted from air con. Had to requst fan for room as too hot. Weather was wonderful. Communal areas benefitted from air con thankfully. Room & some areas a bit tired. Staff in Winter garden restaurant on top of cleaning flooring when needed but same can't be said for Picollo restaurant. Food was excellent in all restaurants with exception of breakfast. Cooked breakfast was barely warm. Plates almost cold so food went cold very quickly. Black pudding - more suited to clay pigeon shooting. Thankfully cold options were plentiful & there was a great selection. Breakfast at 9am each day so no excuse for poor quality of "hot" food! Spa treatments were excellent and staff were absolutely wonderful. Claire was really nice doing a leg & foot massage for husband. Tracy was absolutely wonderful. Had a full aromatherapy massage plus pedicure and it was excellent. Overall a very pleasant stay.

It was ok. Disappointed that even after paying almost £300 for a room we were not able to get a booking for dinner. Due to this and having to book everything it took the relaxation out of the stay. Not returning guests unfortunately for us.

Was very disappointing as a lot of the hotel was closed to users especially area that we enjoyed staying previously. There was no cosy areas to enjoy a quiet drink and the winter garden closed at 4.30 and we were asked to leave when we went there for a drink. We had the Indian meal again in the winter garden there was no atmosphere and the meal was not enjoyable tasted as if it was out of a jar. Although the pool was empty again we needed to leave after an hour. When we went to base camp I was horrified to see it cost £11.50 for a child to play in a park. We used to go to the hotel with our 6 children when they were you and to be honest we would never have been able to afford for them to participate in this activity if it had been there them. I now have 15 grandchildren but I would not be recommending this hotel to their parents it just costs too much money to ensure the children were able to participate what is on offer. Overall disappointing and expensive for what is on offer. Could not even get a cocktail in the winter garden and there was nowhere open to get a drink once we came out from watching the 8.15 movie everything was getting cleaned up and closing

Great selection of activities during the day, however very expensive for family? Would like to have seen more price deals for family ticket rather than full prices for 8-10 year olds. Seemed to accommodate for really young kids under 6, the for 12+ but not much for 7-12 age group. Hotel is looking a bit tired. Staff and service though is excellent and good swimming pool area. Be nicer to have more swim times available rather than 1hr per day slot. Glad we went to experience it, though for the money I don’t think we will be back.
