Paulina was amazing, she made our day. She looked after us like her own family and cared for my sick children as her own.

Pros:

Bad wifi and limited facilities. No fridge in the room, gym or anything really other than a square room with dodgy aircon.
I would give it a 3 star but the staff were so friendly and helpful that it deserves a 5.

Pros:

We were given an 'accessible' room for some reason. It was old and in need of refurbishment. I had requested 2 beds but there was just one small double. Very basic.

Brilliant, just brilliant and excellent value too!
Pros:

I arrived after jet lag and a tiresome drive at 12.30 on a rainy Friday afternoon . The gentleman at reception was attentive and kind, finding me an early room with the minimum of fuss.
Registration for parking was simple and quick with contactless payment.
I got a room on the first floor facing the car park : which is the side you want: it is silent and has a view of the hill and greenery in front of the hotel - not of the parked cars.
Thd bathroom was bath/ shower - I had baths : good size - I am 6 ft 2.. great bathroom - v. clean.
All the staff were chatty and clearly made a great team. V. Impressive and pleasant.
The bed was as always, just great. The breakfast next door was hot and to the usual premier inn standard.
The receptionist did his level best to call me a taxi, when he could have just said "there's the freephone... '
Simply the best Premier Inn I've ever stayed at , and that's more than a few.
All of the staff are to be commended.
Thank you from the guest at Room 40.

Very dissapointing
Pros:

The location was perfect for what we needed. Price was a bit expensive and once we were inside we noticed how run down it is. The toom smelt incredibly damp. There was black mould on the ceiling of the room and bathroom and the window was pooling water constantly. It being -2 over night we didnt keep the window open with 2 young children in the room. It was a good size room but everything smelt damo and musty. Even the clothes we wore to bed smelt musty by the morning. Was very dissapointing

Aviemore Premier Inn, Highly Recommended
Pros:

Aviemore Premier Inn is an excellent location as a base for exploring the Cairngorm area. The hotel itself is fairly new and everything is very clean and well maintained. We enjoyed our food in the Thyme restaurant and the meal deals are exceptionally good value for money. The service was excellent and, in particular, Lorraine was very attentive and a pleasure to engage with.
