Precioso hotel en zona tranquila y preciosa
Pros:

Precioso hotel frente al río, con habitaciones cómodas, bonitas y arregladas. El desayuno, tanto por el lugar como por la comida y el servicio, buenísimo. Justo en frente, en la ribera del río, hay una zona con bares donde poder comer algo o tomarse una cerveza con tranquilidad.

Cons:

No tiene ascensor

A Wonderful Stay from Start to Finish
Pros:

I absolutely loved my stay at Atholl! My room was beautiful and the nicest I’ve had during my time in Scotland. The staff were so friendly and welcoming, and the breakfast was incredible. Easily the best breakfast I’ve had on my trip! I would happily stay here again.

The property is absolutely beautiful rooms are stunning and beds very comfortable! Staff lovely and helpful

Nice old hotel with a very spacious room.
Pros:

Dunkeld is a place full of tourists, but we needed a place to stay so we could hear a concert in nearby Birnam, so we were happy to have such a nice large room with windows that opened, and a large comfy bed. The breakfast was lovely.

Cons:

The toilet usually didn’t flush which was surprising in a fairly expensive place. Also, the parking is very difficult. The latter is not the hotel’s fault; the town is not built for so many tourists, but we did have to work really hard to find a place to park, and then bring our suitcases from the other end of town. Again….no fault of the hotel.
