Recent Reviews in Ballindalloch

Craiglynne Hotel

Craiglynne Hotel

8/10 Good
"Although other reviews of the property were not great, I am being more generous because our room had very comfortable twin beds with clean, crisp new linens. Our bathroom had been recently renovated and was very nice. The front desk staff, a lovely young lady from Australia, was very pleasant and efficient. The only thing I'd suggest the management do to improve the room, is to fix the broken window blind."

"The staff were very friendly and helpful. The only slight fault is that those working were extremely busy and so service was a bit slower.
