Cómodo y acogedor en el centro de un pueblo maravilloso
Pros:

Es muy cómodo y limpio. Camas cómodas y ambiente cálido, con un patio interior donde se puede comer o tomar algo muy a gusto. El pueblo es precioso, paseos preciosos cerca del río, una antigua Abadía, una calle central pintoresca, gente amable y un bar con una terraza al lado del río y música en directo. Nos encantó

Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

We were in the annexe called a Kabin which was a glorified shed that the window didn't open and it was full of condensation, showerhead was grubby, wall paper was torn. Staff were not approachable and we waited more than mins to get booked in even although there were staff in the vicinity. There was no internet as it was down but the girl on reception didn't even lift her head to tell us that.

Nice hotel., cozy room. Also great breakfast!
Pros:

We loved the room we stayed in- triple room, twin bed for each of us. It had everything we needed. Dunkheld is a quaint, small, walkable town. Very cute and the people were very friendly.

Cons:

The shower needs a small shelf to place soap and shampoo containers while showering.

Terrible and horrible experience at Royal Dunkeld Hotel
Pros:

Dirty carpet covered dust, shoe prints on the bath tube. Found fingernail clippings on the floor, hairs and stains on the duvet cover and mould around the shower door. Half bottle of water in the electric kettle.

Has the staff clean this “hotel room” before the guest checkin? I doubt!!!

Can’t stand to stay in an annex room. If you read the hotel website, it describes “Our Annexe, for example, provides you with comfortable rooms at very affordable prices in a separate building”. Don’t understand what is the definition of building! To me, this annex is just the container, where we put the cargo inside and ship!

I don’t trust the bed hygiene and therefore I have to use my clothes to cover the bed. Of course, I didn’t use the pillows, duvet, blankets, towels.

Can you imagine when you walk out from the “so called” hotel room, it is a “nature” environment! If you are lucky enough, insects will be your visitors.

Though I know there is no air conditioner, there is no air flow in the room. Finally I found the window at the toilet has been open for a little crack, I believe that’s the only place for air flow. Can’t imagine how to substain if it has heat wave.

Weak or nearly dead wifi! Unfortunately my mobile signal is weak as well. It said it has phone in the “Hotel room”, sadly, I can’t find it. I tried to call hotel staff by my mobile phone, but the network is dead and I can’t reach them.

Not enough hot bathing water. Well, we are lucky that the weather is not cold, otherwise, we will definitely get sick!

One important thing is, my booking is being hacked!!!! I received whatspp from Central de Agendamentos IESA, +55 51 3076-1020, asking me to verify our identity by clicking on the link. I don’t know how much personal information has been stolen!

For sure, I will never visit this hotel again and recommend to my friends. It actually ruin my impression to Dunkeld.
