"What is there not to like when staying in such an iconic building, with excellent facilities, nice staff and an extraordinary view!
Beware: the cooked breakfast is heavy stuff and perhaps for 2 to share 😀"
"The hotel is located right in the town so it’s easy to walk to the local shops and attractions. The room was modern, clean and comfortable. It was a little bit noisy but that’s my only complaint if any. "
"Stayed for two nights and had the most wonderful experience in this cosy hotel filled with history. Yes it's true it could use a lick of paint, but the amazing staff and very good restaurant make up for that bigtime. "

"We have stayed at Craigendarroch several times before, always in one of the lodges. This time we chose a Junior Suite in the hotel.
Everything was even better than expected. Lovely accommodation, friendly staff and great facilities.
We will definitely return."

"Fabulous well-located property. Very convenient for exploring Deeside. The large eat-in kitchen had everything we needed to cook and gather together. Plenty private spaces for spreading out and enjoying a little peace and quiet, too. The bedrooms were comfortable and the bathrooms had everything we needed. Communication with Anna was perfect throughout. Highly recommend!"
"We loved the apartment at Sweeney Two - it has a real WOW factor with its industrial style, which was unexpected in the middle of Aviemore! It had everything we needed and the garden area is a real bonus.
It’s in a great location for exploring the Cairngorm area, we went to the mountain resort to do the tubing slides and funicular and then on to the reindeer walk, all of which we can recommend. Thanks for a great stay!"
"A great site and a quality lodge chalet with a friendly and warm welcome from the owners. Very accessible for Braemar and surrounding natural scenery. Absolutely excellent!"
