Reviews and Ratings
I really enjoyed my stay at the hotel. The rooms were spacious, well-decorated, and very clean. The service was attentive, and the location within the Cairngorms National Park was perfect for exploring the area. The dining experience had its ups and downs, but overall, it was a pleasant stay.
The hotel offers spacious and elegantly appointed rooms, ideal for families. The service is impeccable with efficient room service available. The location is charming, providing direct access to beautiful gardens and conveniently close to attractions like Aviemore and Cairngorm Mountain. The dining experience is exceptional, featuring a variety of local ingredients cooked to perfection. However, the lack of a bathtub in Room 4 may be a drawback.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel; the rooms were comfortable and well-decorated though lacking a bath, and the location was convenient with direct access to the gardens. The dining experience had its ups and downs, but the service was top-notch.
