A gem in Speyside!
comfortable bed great shower well trained staff
I enjoyed my time. The bed in the room was very comfortable. The shower pressure was great too. The whisky tasting at the Quaich Bar was a highlight. The bar manager, Calum, created a whisky tasting just for me and had an absolute wealth of knowledge.
The parking lot seemed a little SMALL for the number of guests.

I found the breakfast very good! The room was large and the bathroom had lovely toiletries. THE dinner was also very good.
The tonic in my gin and tonic was flat because it was out of date. It had expired in September 2023. The shower pressure was low!

Great Hotel Experience
helpful receptionist friendly staff insightful managers
The receptionist, rebecca, was very helpful upon arrival. The staff were friendly in the restaurant. Callum, the bar manager, and louise, the restaurant manager, were insightful about the food and drinks (i especially enjoyed this).
The bathtub was very slippery, and i found it treacherous since there was nothing to hold onto. The glass door swings open. I wish there was a better design for safety.
