Pros:

Good comfy room, enjoyed dinner as well.
Just a bit disappointed that the bar staff wasn’t knowledgable about the whisky’s they are serving, was hoping for more of a tasting experience.

lack of Wifi in room and same "specials" each night.( these minor issues were more than offset by the positives)

Essential stay for Speyside whisky touring and enjoyment in the well stocked bar
Pros:

Property is lovely, well maintained yet classic - for US travellers, there is no AC in our room (Glenfarclas room) so maybe bring a fan if it’s hot otherwise it’s a cozy room

Cons:

Parking wasn’t immediately obvious and getting into it was a little tight

Cute designer hotel in extremely idyllic location
Pros:

Right next to the River Spey, what more do you need to know? A cute little hotel in a cute little village with comfortable designer rooms and an excellent restaurant which as a top-notch selection of single malt whiskeys. Do yourself favor and take a long walk along the path next to the River Spey.

Cons:

I couldn't stay longer.
