Top Hotels Near Rothiemurchus Estate Visitor Centre in Aviemore from NZ$135

"I stayed here with my 4 Yr old granddaughter the hotel and amenities were great The only downside was the food we stayed on a dinner and breakfast deal but found that the buffet lacked choice as very few options the salad bar was ok"

"We were woken at 7am by a fire alarm and had to evacuate our room with a baby and a 6-year-old, only for it to stop before we even reached the muster point. It was later explained, quite casually, that it was caused by someone showering with the bathroom door open. Given there’s a sign warning about “sensitive” alarms, this doesn’t feel like a one-off and isn’t acceptable in a family hotel where sleep is already precious. We stayed at Macdonald Aviemore Resort as a family of four. When we raised this, along with a broken kettle, reception initially offered complimentary breakfast but later withdrew it after checking with a manager, which felt poorly handled. The hotel itself feels tired and in need of investment. Our room was small, especially with a cot, the shower was only lukewarm, and carpets were dirty with an unpleasant smell. The lift also smelt strongly of smoke. There are positives: the pool and facilities are good and we enjoyed them, though some maintenance is needed (hair dryers out of order, puddles on the floor, drains not very clean). The outdoor park is great for kids but also showing wear. Aviemore is a fantastic location, but the resort feels like it’s relying on that rather than maintaining standards, it’s certainly not 4 star. With better upkeep, it could be much better."

"Good location, nice place"

"The room was perfect for our short stay in Aviemore. The location was located perfectly and surprisingly quiet even though the main road is next to it. There is parking which is easily accessible and was located to the apartment right next to it."

"Brilliant stay. Steam room was grimy but apart from that it was fantastic."

"What a great place to stay- really clean, a comfy bed, quality linens and well-maintained room with a little fridge. Staff are all friendly and efficient. We stayed in a chalet years ago and liked it and decided to try the motel this time. We’ll definitely be back! It’s the best motel we’ve stayed in in Scotland, and it puts most U.S. motels to shame."

"Living area and kitchen lovely and clean, fresh looking and nicely decorated. 2nd bedroom very small, and beds much narrower than a single bed, my small daughter had a terrible sleep due to banging her head off the wall every time she turned over. There was staining on the sheets in the small bedroom too. Flush on toilet is loose, but a great shower. We tripped over the 1st step outside which was loose, maybe something guests should be warned to look out for.Out of date food left in the freezer. Overall it was fine for one night but we probably wouldnt stay again. 50 cleaning charge very steep for a 1 night stay. No welcome basket of any sort.Communication with the hosts was very good. Great location for exploring local area and a short walk to restaurants."

"Friendly staff, clean rooms, convenient. "

"This is a well-looked-after modern refurbishment of an older property. The rooms are compact but very nicely presented. There is a really nice restaurant downstairs as well The restaurant does really good breakfasts and has a good evening small plates menu "
