"Great stay and well looked after"

8.0

Despite being a huge hotel, the place was organised, the staff really helpful (sorted us out with ice and ice bucket, fresh milk) and good at breakfast, and the room was comfortable and clean. The breakfasts were spot on too.

Nothing, i was a little worried when we saw 100s of medical students arriving for a weekend event - thinking it would be awful with lots of noise and a bun fight for breakfast but in fact it was all good because the hotel had organised it all so well. The students had breakfast in a separate area and were all put in one area so not with other residents. Spot on.

Nice room, immaculately clean. Good pool with a small spa pool. Location in the centre of Aviemore is ideal.

Everything was fine

"This is an excellent place to stay with a multitude of things to do."

The property is well located for all my needs and the walks are stunning only a short distance away.

There were weeds in areas I would have otherwise thought be cleared of them.

Location was close to friends.

There was no one at reception. When he finally came down he smelled of fresh cigarette smoke. Didn’t tell us our room was downstairs and the lift doesn’t go down. Had huge suitcases with no warning.!

"Perfect for a young family"

8.0

The room was lovely. Bed very comfortable. Dinner was good with prompt service

Cold plates at breakfast meant the food went cold quickly. The coffee was very weak. Feather pillows were very uncomfortable
