Gut für ein zwei Nächte in Tomintiul
Pros:

Mitten im Nationalpark. Guter Ausgangspunkt für Wanderungen und für den Besuch der Destillerien.
Betreiber ist sehr freundlich. Zimmer war sehr sauber. Das Hotelrestaurant bietet hervorragendes indisches Essen. Zum Frühstück gab es aber das in Schottland übliche warme Frühstück in guter Qualität

Cons:

Zimmer und Flure könnten mal eine Renovierung vertragen.

Katastrofe
Pros:

Ingenting

Cons:

Booket og fikk bekreftelse, kjørte en og en halv time for å komme frem. Da vi ankom kl 20 på kvelden fikk vi beskjed av et personal at de har ledige rom, men ikke personale som kan klargjøre rommet. Fikk derfor ikke overnatting likevel. Da det var pinsehelg var det svært lite ledige rom og vi måtte kjøre i nesten to timer før vi kunne booke oss inn på nytt hotell.

Ietwat oude inrichting, maar prima voor deze prijs

Pros:

Good location. Comfortable bed. Friendly staff.

Cons:

Hotel is mid-renovation and feels like a work in progress. No TVs in rooms. Had to ask for the heating to be turned on. Wouldn't have booked if I had known this.
