A stay in a beautiful location in the highlands of Scotland, with perfect weather.
Pros:

The location was perfect.
The staff were very friendly and helpful.
The food was good and plentiful.

Cons:

Externally the building was in poor condition, needing most of the windows replacing. They were showing their age, and needed a coat of paint as a minimum.

Very comfortable stay. Would recommend
Pros:

Lovely room with a bath in the ensuite. Had a great meal of Haggis, Neeps & Tatties.

Cons:

Right on the main road through town. Photo of property was taken from the back of the park across the road. A little deceiving.

Would definitely stay at this property again, but would request a room on the quieter side
Pros:

Lovely old building, lots of character!! Friendly staff, restaurant on site, comfortable beds!!

Cons:

The photos don’t show the road located right in front of the property - instead show a beautiful garden - making it look as though the hotel is set back from the road with a garden right in front. We chose the higher rate for a supreme room “overlooking the garden”. We could see the garden from our room, but unfortunately we were also overlooking the road, with cars driving by, and coaches dropping off and picking up their passengers from the hotel - not very peaceful and quiet as one would expect from a “garden view”!! Otherwise, it was quiet during the night.

Pros:

Our stay at the Nethybridge Hotel was truly lovely! From the moment we arrived, the staff was an absolute delight, welcoming us so warmly and making check-in an absolute breeze. The hotel itself is incredibly beautiful and bursting with classic charm and personality. We really loved the traditional decor and the nice views from our room, where the bed and pillows kept us perfectly comfortable. Parking was also super convenient, as we were able to park right out front, though it's great to know there is additional space in the back too. To top it all off, the dining was fantastic: we enjoyed a wonderful, delicious dinner at the hotel, followed by a hearty, traditional Scottish breakfast the next morning.

Cons:

Naturally, because this is a historic property, the hotel and its rooms are on the older side, which comes with just a few minor quirks. The bathroom ventilation made a bit of an uncomfortable sound while running, and the bedroom door was a slightly older, thinner model, meaning we could hear some passing noise from the corridor. However, the hotel was overall very quiet and peaceful, so it didn't disrupt our rest. It is a wonderful, character-filled place to stay, and we genuinely enjoyed our time here!

Viktorianische Ambiente mit kleinen Schwächen
Pros:

Hotel macht auf den Bildern noch viel her, bei näherer Betrachtung ist die Lady aber schon ziemlich in Würde gealtert, hier müsste an einigen Ecken mal etwas Geld investiert werden. Lage ist gut geeignet für Ausflüge ins Umland (zu Destillen am Whisky-Trail, Ballindaloch-Castle, Aviemore und Nationalpark usw.). Genügend kostenlose Parkplätze vorhanden. Wir hatten ein top-renoviertes neues Zimmer mit Blick auf den Hinterhofparkplatz und die Seitenstraße. Frühstück ok (Buffet mit den üblichen englischen Zutaten) aber nicht außergewöhnlich. Abendessen ist in Nethybridge mangels Alternativen nur im Hotelrestaurant möglich. Restaurant ist aber ziemlich günstig und bietet auch viele schottische Gerichte an (empfehlenswert u.a. Cullen Skink), die auch sehr gut geschmeckt haben (hatten 2 mal dort gegessen). In der Bar / Pub gibt es viele recht günstige Whiskys. Schöner Garten vor dem Hotel,

Cons:

Personal war teilweise etwas unmotiviert (5 Kellner stehen rum, aber nur einer kommt dann mit Speisekarte und bedient auch), Zimmerservice war fast nicht vorhanden, Bett wurde nicht gemacht

Very expensive for a basic hotel
Pros:

Breakfast was good and staff were great

Cons:

Poor parking, the hotel is very tired looking and outdated, as was our room, especially paying £300 for two nights, we were expect a lot better, it's not great value for money. I appreciate it's an old hotel but it's seriously needing some TLC, we will be finding another hotel that's better value for money
