A perfect spot to experience Speyside!
Pros:

Really enjoyed our stay at Aberlour Hotel! It was the final stop after a multi-day hike & a perfect way to end the trip.
We were greeted with a friendly welcome and we were given useful advice to help our with our plans for the evening. The room was very comfortable & Aberlour is a delightful scenic village - and the generous breakfast was the perfect way to start our return journey.

Pros:

Food and staff were great. Location is ideal for the whisky trail. Great for a couple of nights stay. Reception and dining areas all very fresh and clean.

Cons:

Thought the resteraunt could have stayed open till 9 o'clock instead of 7 30. Room was just a bit small, but expect that from older hotels. Street facing room a bit noisy.

Pros:

Freundlich und sauber. Großes Zimmer mit allem was man braucht. Einen funktionierenden Schallplattenspieler auf dem Hotelzimmer hatte ich zum ersten Mal in meinem Leben. Sehr witzige Idee. Altes Haus, aber sauber und gepflegt, was man nicht von jedem anderen Hotel auf unserer Reise entlang der Speyside sagen konnte.

Cons:

Ein Zimmer zur Hauptverkehrsstraße war schon recht laut.

Excellent stay as part of a cycle touring trip
Pros:

We really liked our stay at the Aberlour Hotel. We were upgraded to a fabulous room with king-size bed, very comfy and nicely decorated. Super big bathroom.
Our bicycles were safely stored for us.
Breakfast was excellent with a cold buffet and hot dishes made to order, coffee was especially good.

Pros:

Location, clean

Cons:

Many stairs up and down to reach my room, no elevator. Almost no sound insulation- too much noise coming from other rooms, corridor and street.

Pros:

Ontbijt was goed. Vriendelijk personeel.

Cons:

Geluidsoverlast in onze kamer, het raam kwam uit aan de keuken. Ik vermoed dat "de koeling" met pijp door het dak om de 2 minuten aansloeg. De kamer was zeer warm. Prijs/kwaliteit viel tegen.
