An excellent nights sleep
Pros:

We did not eat at The Grant Arms, but the hotel was very nice and the rooms were very good. The bed was the most comfortable bed I’ve slept in - best nights sleep in years! Very clean too! When we arrived they seemed to have a shortage of staff on duty, but most hotels have a struggle with finding staff so I would not put this as a mark against the hotel as the accommodation was very good.

Gute Unterkunft, 113 und 114 aber meiden (Lärm von draussen)
Pros:

Die Zimmer sind gross; etwas "Vintage" ausgestattet aber tadellos sauber. Bequeme Betten, funktionierende Steckdosen. Es gibt ein tolles Frühstücksbuffet (auch mit glutenfreiem Brot), das Personal ist sehr freundlich.

Cons:

in den Zimmern 113 und 114, die wir hatten, hört man den Lärm der Absauganlage der Küche auch bei geschlossenem Fenster derart, dass an Schlaf nicht mehr zu denken ist. Die anlaufende Turbine hat uns an einem Sonntag um 05:40 geweckt, und danach konnten wir nicht wieder schlafen.

Generally very pleasant.
Pros:

The coffee/tea station in the bar after dinner. A problem dealt with quickly.

Cons:

Cold plates for hot food at breakfast. Would have liked bigger selection of fresh fruit at breakfast and more variety in bread/pastry products.

Great place to stay
Pros:

Lovely and well organised hotel situated in the centre of Grantown on Spey, with parking directly outside. Staff are welcoming and helpful. Situated a short walk into the town centre where there is an array of small independent shops, including bookshop.

Pros:

The room was excellent.

Cons:

Not that we didn't like it, but the dinners were a bit variable in quality. We also felt it was a pity that the breakfast was rather inflexible - I like a continental breakfast, so I would have preferred a more economical alternative to the all or nothing full cooked breakfast.

Very disappointing and lack lustre experience.
Pros:

The room was large, bed comfortable and the room and bathroom were clean

Cons:

Very old fashioned large hotel, more suited to coach loads of bird-watchers than individuals looking for a cosy Scottish experience. Like something out of the 1960/70’s. Breakfast wasn’t included which made it poor value for money. If you want more than just a clean and comfortable bed the night, then search elsewhere. However, staff were helpful and pleasant. We didn’t eat there as dining room again, very ‘old hat’.
