Nettes Hotel mit gutem Whiskypub/ Restaurant
Pros:

Nettes Hotel fußläufig zu verschiedenen Whisky-Destillen gelegen mit direkt angeschlossenem Restaurant und Pub mit großer Whisky-Auswahl. Freundliches Personal und gute Frühstücksauswahl. Ruhige Lage

Cons:

Einzelzimmer waren für den Preis doch recht klein. Da direkt über der Küche gelegen, roch es stark nach Frittierfett, Ham & Eggs und allem, was so auf der Speisekarte steht;-)

Great location, food, drink and staff.
Pros:

Superb location for our stay in the area. Great and friendly staff. Restaurant and whisky bar offering wide selection of food and drink. Excellent full cooked breakfast.

Cons:

On Suite facilities would have been nice, but due to the layout of the premises this would have been difficult to facilitate.

Einfach und gut!
Pros:

Danke für den freundlichen Service! Das Restaurant hat eine gut bestückte Bar, schmackhafte Küche und sehr nette Bedienung. Whisky Capitel Inn liegt mitten im Zentrum des Ortes. Shops und Verkehrsanbindung befinden sich in unmittelbarer Nähe. Als der Schlüssel nicht auffindbar und eine Rechnung nicht bezahlt waren, blieb das Personal ruhig und freundlich! Alles wurde in Ruhe geklärt. DANKE!

Cons:

Ein einfaches und zweckmäßiges kleines Zimmer, das für eine Nacht völlig in Ordnung war. Das Bad über den Flur ist nicht ideal, aber machbar.

Pros:

Personeel is erg vriendelijk. Prima ontbijt en goede bedden. Restaurant is achter het hotel en is ook van prima kwaliteit.
Het hotel ligt op loopafstand van de Glen fiddich distileerderij. Gunstig voor een whisky proeverij :-)

Cons:

Voelt een beetje verouderd aan. Het mag ook iets gezelliger ingericht worden.
