A perfect retreat
If you want to drive around Scotland it is the perfect place to stay, every major city is with 2 hours drive. The town itself is beautiful. The hotel is great for travellers who want a bit of pampering but also want to be out and about. The pool after a long hike is perfect. The breakfast will certainly set you up for the day as there is a very large selection including vegan foods.

Nice hotel (a bit run down)
Pool area was nice.
Hotel rooms and corridors were clean but could do with some tasteful renovations (carpets and decoration). Friendly staff.

Nice comfy stay
Nice comfortable rooms, all the staff I interacted with were very friendly and helpful. Really enjoyed the breakfast, great selection of cold and hot food. It's a little bit of an uphill walk from the centre of Pitlochry so may be worth bearing in mind if you're arriving by bus or train.

Great Stop After a Long Day
We loved the leisure center! The pool, spa, sauna, and gym were a great way to relax after a busy day traveling. The room was sizeable with plenty of space. The bar and restaurant staff were very friendly and the food was incredible.

Ok but potential for better
Stately looking building from the outside. Check in didn’t feel particularly welcoming or friendly. Room was spacious but dated.
Breakfast selection was poor and again staff unfriendly/didn’t want to be there!
Shame as could be lovely but needs money spending & staff training.

A nice looking hotel with nice amenities and grounds, short 10 minute walk to the town so easily accessible for all your needs. Hotel is a little dated but room was clean, spacious and comfortable. Breakfast was great, lots of options from cooked English to cereal, fruit and lots of gluten free and vegan options, staff were also very nice and accommodating

Highly recommend
Last minute on the day booking and we were given a very comfortable twin room. The optional three course dinner was excellent and a singer/comedian entertainer made our evening. Great value for money.
