Reviews and Ratings
The hotel had small rooms that felt a bit tired, but the price was too high for what was offered. It was a bit noisy in the morning. The service was a mix of bordering on rude with some lovely and accommodating interactions. The location was central and ideal for exploring Tomintoul and the Glenlivet area. The dining experience, while good and generous, had some inconsistencies. The hotel lacked modern amenities and needed attention.
The hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were comfortable and clean for the price paid, but could have been cleaner. The service was awesome overall, with some minor issues due to being run by the owner. The location was great for day trips in a quiet Highland village, with a superb whisky shop nearby. The dining options were satisfactory, with good choices available. Overall, a value-for-money stay with some room for improvement.
The hotel offers warm and cosy rooms, yet a bit too small for comfort. The service was wonderful, with very friendly staff eager to please. The location is friendly, with a superb whisky shop nearby and ideal for visiting distilleries. The dining experience was wonderful and filling, but the chef could improve cooking skills. Overall, a mixed experience with positives and negatives.
