Good for a nights get away
Pros:

Staff as always were great and very helpful, Dinner was top quality

Cons:

Bed was very hard and walls are very thin we had a couple next door and you could hear every word they were saying (which was weel after midnight which didn't help) Breakfast was a bit of a let down we have stayed here alot over the years and you used to get a full breakfast including black pudding & haggis where as now it was 1 slice of bacon, 1 sausage, 1 egg and potato, Could do with the bar opening earlier especially in the summer

Ein schönes Hotel für eine Trip durch den Nationalpark.
Pros:

Ein schönes Hotel am Rande des Cairngorms Nationalparks mit sehr sauberen Zimmern. Es hat einen urigen, leichten 80er Jahre Stil, der uns aber sehr gefallen hat. Das Personal war sehr freundlich und das Frühstück simpel, aber sehr lecker. Parkplatz war ebenfalls verfügbar.

Pros:

Mycket bra hotell, trevlig personal och bekvämt rum.
