"Good hotel with lovely, helpful & friendly staff. Got chatting to various people in the bar area, which was relaxed with a nice atmosphere. Bar staff were very helpful & chatted with ease. Room was spacious and clean as was the bathroom, but the shower was very weak indeed, but the water was warm enough. The room/bathroom/decor are what you would expect of such a hotel in the area. Make-over would be welcome, but in thee difficult times, fully understand if it isn't priority. Would recommend."

10/10 Excellent
"For an unknown reason receiving the entry details was difficult but eventually successful. The room was clean and the facilities were very good. The decor won’t please everyone but the invisible staff refreshed towels and drinks efficiently. Aware that no food service was available the presence of the fridge was helpful to store our own items. Didn’t try the recommended place for breakfast. It was a fair price to reach Findhorn and Forres for the festival. When the noise issue was mysteriously fixed it was a comfortable stay."
