I had booked a superior room, the room I was allocated certainly wasn't suprerior. There was no towels, the toilet hadn't been cleaned properly and the light in the bathroom flickered constantly, the switch was broken so could not be turned off. I reported these issues to reception, they were quick to bring the towels and clean the toilet, but there was nobody to repair the light. The hotel could do with a bit TLC.

Service at reception was excellent. Misunderstanding with booking was rectified with no problem. Dining room was disorganized. Meals were cold. Poor choice. Staff spent more time in kitchen. Didn't seem anyone was in charge. Went out second night to local hotel for meal and was exceptional. Hotel was busy with 3 coaches the second night. Noise from other residents in next room was unexcusable as between 10pm-12pm. On a recuperation break and just wanted peace and relaxation.

This hotel has a lot of potential. We were raced through our evening meal with hardly a gap between courses. The main meal was venison casserole which was delicious but it was served with overcooked frozen brussel sprouts and frozen peas and sweetcorn mixed which lowered the quality of the meal. The rest of the meal was ok. Some of the staff in the dining room were less than communicative. I love the hotels ambience and it could be excellent.

The view from our room was pleasant. The lift only went up to the second floor so we had to carry heavy suitcase up another flight of stairs to the 3rd floor.

Basic hotel.

Hotel fixtures and fittings overall we're dated. Carpet after the first floor are thread bare and grubby. Lift very slow. Room clean with tea and coffee making facilities and TV. Hand and bath towel each but not bath sheet size. Food mediocre. Good choice at breakfast but on the cold side. Disappointed with the bar as there was no cucumber or lemon for my gin. I supplied my own 😜

Old school stately charm, the staff make an effort to provide a luxurious experience in this historically grand hotel. Great to have a bathtub, bathrooms have been renovated. Treats and coffee/tea provided in the room. Friendly and cozy pub for visitors and locals with full menu available. Grand, formal dining room and halls for guests. Typical Scottish decor, plaid carpets with random sections of scenic wallpaper amid beautiful old woodworking. Apparently Queen Victoria stayed here while in Kingussie! We loved our stay and the small town is gorgeous to walk.

Loved our stay. Suggest pre-booking if you want to dine in the restaurant. We had a meal in the bar, it was,very nice although we felt the staff were a little stressed... can't quite put my finger on it. Maybe just that it was a bit late.

We liked our stay here and the folks working the front desk and breakfast were pleasant. There wasn’t any thing to do in the evening but go to the bar. The place is old and interesting. We slept great and there’s some great hiking right behind the hotel.

Food was awful. Chicken pie was slop on a plate with a square of exploding pastry on top. Breakfast had burnt sausages one morning and the next morning they were not even cooked. The only saving grace was the staff. All pleasant and helpful.

Lovely weekend in Kingussie

The hotel is in a great location. We got our room at a great price, it was very spacious and had a lovely bathroom. The breakfast buffet was good however the cooked options for vegetarians were limited with us only finding out that you needed to order vegetarian sausages the day prior. There was entertainment somewhere evenings which is good to cater for everyone
