Great location on main street of small town - quiet and clean, with a great restaurant.
Pros:

The rooms were comfortable, the bathrooms were large and clean, and there was off-street parking. The restaurant was great, with very reasonable prices. Excellent breakfast.

Off our list for future consideration
Pros:

Staff replaced our towels on the second day.

Cons:

My wife is an octogenarian and I am septuagenarian the room we were given upon arrival was on the top floor, no lift, and we had to slog up three flights of stairs with our luggage.The room was in the converted attic space with half the room following the roof line so I had to bend my body at a 45 degree angle in order to sidle to my side of the bed and to the desk/tv area. Surrounding the floor of the shower were bits of black mold indicating the cleanup crew did not pay attention to detail. The hot water would waver during the course of a shower and go cold and require frequent readjustment. when we moved the chair around to watch the television we found a dirty sock rolled up in the corner. I guess some former guest is still looking for it

tolles Hotel in Aberlour
Pros:

Das Bett war ein Traum, das beste das wir auf unseren 18 Tagen in Schottland hatten. Das Hotel ist zwar schon älter, aber für uns wars perfekt. Großes Zimmer und im Bad sogar eine Badewanne und eine Dusche, mit der man das großzügige Badezimmer nicht flutet.
Die Auswahl beim Frühstück lies keine Wünsche offen.
Parkplatz wie angegeben vorhanden.

Cons:

alles perfekt für uns
