Non fussy lovely property
Pros:

The lounge and meals were exceptional. The views from the property and quality of breakfast for the price were outstanding.

Cons:

It was annoying getting pitched for dinner over and over again. Although I did hear the dinner was fantastic. The staff, while nice, didn’t really go out of their way to be helpful, with the exception of the night manager. There’s no lift but they did help us take our luggage up and down which was nice.

Great breakfast . Lovely staff .
Pros:

The breakfast was fantastic and the staff are excellent. Hotel sits on a hill and the grounds are lovely . Dinning area has new extension which is pretty .
We did dinner one evening and it did not disappoint. Must mention roaring fires in the aspect lounge .

Cons:

The room we had was at the top of the hotel so secondary set of stairs are steep . Room was nice . Clean but cold at times . Radiators when turned on only became warm to the touch. Never really hot . Shower pressure was limited so used shower to wash hair rather than wall mounted control .

Beau séjour à Pitlochry.
Pros:

Grande chambre très propre et fonctionnel. L'apéritif dans le salon, le souper en 3 plats et le petit-déjeuner à la carte était fabuleux. L'hotel est charmant et proche du centre.

Cons:

Manque de place de parc lorsque nous sommes arrivé. Nous avons du nous parquer en contrebas de l'hotel.
nous avions la chambre au dessus de la cuisine. La hotte de la cuisine fait passablement de bruit le soir et le matin et une conduite d'eau qui doit également aller à la cuisine fait beaucoup de bruit à travers le mur.

Clean and well presented room.
Pros:

Breakfast was nice, service was good, food was well presented and tasty.

Cons:

Room was not attached to hotel it was round the corner outside the building and down a very steep set of stairs. Room was well presented, however, was very hot. There was a lot of noise from an adjoining room, tv was until at least 3am , soundproofing not great.
