Friendly and welcoming staff. Unexpected room upgrade upon arrival which was wonderful. If you want charm in a beautiful Highlands locale along the whisky trail, this is it. Dinner was incredibly delicious in the hotel's dining room. Their chef is out of this world. Bar has every whisky known to man ... kidding of course, but they are well stocked and knowledgeable. We stayed one night and wished we had booked a longer visit. It was meant to be a stop on our way out of a two day drive through the Cairngorms National Park. It was a magical drive and this stay was the icing on the cake. Highly recommend.

Lovely bit of highland grandeur/history. Mostly just passing through for a local event so didn’t get the full experience. Wee bit expensive for room alone but no complaints about the standards/staff etc bar/dining facilities looked very pleasant

Hotel is a little old / outdated. Breakfast was good! I was expecting a better / warmer welcome from the front desk team. Room is not very quiet but overall comfortable. Someone (staff) opened the door without knocking when I was in the room. Not sure if I would stay there again. Good for the price.

Rooms, lobby, and elevator need a major update. The bathroom shower curtain needs cleaning as well as the grout in the bathroom. Small details, but important ones. No where near the level of a four star hotel. It was more expensive than it was worth in my opinion. However, the staff was wonderful.

We picked our location first and narrowed the choice of hotel to the Grant Arms and one other. We chose the GAH because it was an old, established hotel with a great reputation and ticked all our boxes. The staff were brilliant, great views & food and a well stocked bar.
