Brian, United States of America

In a pleasant setting in the Glenfidich estate. Lots of walks etc.

Jonathan, New Zealand

Quaint location in tiny Tomintoul. Older building with charm and character. Bar filled with many whiskeys. Free full breakfast is a plus.

Matthew, United States of America

Location! Near several distilliaries; town has a free not-to-miss museum in the town square showing life in the town 100 years ago. Meals in the downstairs pub are enjoyable and the labyrinth stairways are great fun. Good parking available.

Emily, United States of America

Good whisky selection ,friendly staff, and good breakfast

Guy, Netherlands

This is a very authentic hotel, old style in a sweet old town. The bar was nice and the food was simple but decent. We were driving through and needed somewhere to stay and this was a good price. The people that run this place are very sweet and helpful!

Alexandra, United States of America

Very friendly at welcoming staff and very good location

Some aspects are being modernised. This naturally affected these (water pressure and presence of hot water). No lift, so needed to take suitcases upstairs; however, staff quite willing to help with this.
Location was good. Breakfast was good quality. Staff were always willing to assist in anyway needed.

“The 70s style is not bespoke, the place has never moved on!”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Twin Room
- • Stayed 1 night
In this 70s styled pub/hotel you were greeted by the overpowering smell of 'air freshener' as you made your way to the allotted room. The place is locked in a time warp.
Not that much in fact. The bar staff added some interest to an otherwise disappointing stay with their good humour and smiles, otherwise this is place to pass through and not linger.

The quite bizarre "welcome" from I presume the owner. She was quite rude about my surname for some unkowen reason and seemed on a mission to tell me she wasn't Scottish! Never had an experience quite like it. Also, a bar patron was loud and rude. Not nice at meal times.
Breakfast was nice and the evening meal was as well. Breakfast waitress was quite friendly and attentive.
