The hotel was really nice. The staff were friendly and helpful. The cleanliness of some areas was not good, this includes cobwebs. The bar menu was good, a bit pricey but it is expected. The Al a cart menu on the other hand was very disappointing, no imagination when it can to the menu and very limited. The breakfast buffet was great. My partner and I had a good time though.

Not worth it😟
Unfortunately we were not impressed with anything on the inside of this property. The location and the outside was stunning. But lacking in so much on the inside. No service to help with luggage, so much was outdated. I'm good with antique and keeping with the style being a palace but that is not what this place looks like. Looks a bit sheaply designed if you could say designed. The restaurant and food was mediocre at best. We sad with everything. Will it be returning.

We liked the hotel, the spa and the room. We had an issue with 1 meal which was refunded by the duty manager. After returning home I wrote to the Manager to explain my views on what we were served and a few issues with the bathroom. After 2 weeks, in his ignorance he has yet to acknowledge my email. We will not be recommending or returning to the Atholl Palace.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Bit disappointing and underwhelming for the price
Underwhelming for a £250 per night B&B rate. Lovely looking hotel and gardens but room was tired and dated for this price. Small, tired bathroom. Service was bang average again for the price and although staff ok, they could have made a bit more effort considering the price we were being charged. If I had paid £100 for room I probably would have been happier with things. Not the cleanest place with windows and mirrors dirty around hotel. Breakfast was cold and serving filtered coffee - no excuse for not having a decent self serve coffee machine these days. Our room was hotter than the sauna in the spa area and we had to keep the windows open. All a bit disappointing really.

It was amazing would stay again. Staff looked after us especially me as a wheelchair user. Breakfast was in a room with steps going into it. My route was by the basement got some fantastic info from the staff about what the hotel was previously used for. They have a museum which was not open when we went. But staff filled us in with intresting knowledge.

Was good, liked it. Miles better than the Dunalastair hotel suites!!! Dunalastair Hotel Suites was where we were booked to stay. Turned out to be a scam - no better than a travel lodge - uncaring unhelpful dishonest staff! You have been warned! Glad myself and my family left 10 min after realising what we had got ourselves into and stayed at the Atholl Palace instead!
