scottish hospitality at its finest!
helpful staff live entertainment
I found the staff very helpful. They gave us some nice ideas for walks. breakfast was excellent and the hotel lounge had a great atmosphere with live entertainment most nights. i will definitely be back again.
the receptionist was terse when i arrived early. there was no left-luggage facility which i found extraordinary, especially since many guests are skiers or hikers. i was told i could leave my luggage by the front door at my own risk!

adequate stay but with notable issues
dated room small bathroom uncomfortable bed
the location was suitable. it provided convenient access to nearby attractions.
our room felt quite dated. the bathroom was small. it seemed like a relic from a bygone era, definitely out of sync with contemporary standards. i also found the bed to be rather uncomfortable, which detracted significantly from the overall experience.
