I bet this hotel was really grand in its heyday. Now it is a very run-down hotel with creaky floors, tattered carpets, saggy mattresses, broken chairs and no water pressure in the shower. The bathroom floor seemed like it would collapse at any moment. No shampoo or soap in the shower. The cost was way too high for the condition of the room. They offer a 4-course dinner for $25 which was good. The service staff were nice. This hotel really needs an overhaul but they stay busy with bus tours of senior citizens. Not sure when the exterior picture was taken as the hotel and garden looks nothing like that picture.

Lovely hiking, sheep dog farm, & a trip to L.Ness
The staff were lovely- even helping us out with boxed breakfasts which were made available more than half an hour before the kitchen opened for the morning we had an early start. One of our 3 booked rooms had a problem, but that couple was upgraded to a better room and once again, the staff were very accomodating

Wonderful stay. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. We loved the charm of the hotel. Located right in town with quaint shops. The walk path along the Gynack Burn was very relaxing and informative. Great to stay in the Highlands if Scotland.

Tired
The staff were lovely but the hotel was very tired. Noise from plumbing and other rooms meant a poor night's sleep. The hotel was over heated. Breakfast buffet was adequate. Barman on the second night of our stay was very good and really new his malts!

Lovely, traditional, but tired
We had a lovely stay at the Duke of Gordon. Staff were very friendly and welcoming, it is clear that the hotel is important to both its community and many returning guests. A wonderful location for exploring the Cairngorms and visiting the Highland Wildlife Park Time hasn't been a great friend however: The building was in need of upgrades in both the public areas and the bedrooms. And at times service fell beyond the level expected. It did not feel that the hotel was well managed. We may well return in the future and very much hope to see much needed improvements to this grand old hotel.

The hotel is a stately old lady. Heaps of history and the squeaky floors to go along with it…there’s no sneaking to the bathroom in the middle of the night🙂 Breakfast was included, it was pretty good and the staff were exceptional.

Great location
Upstairs room was over the ballroom so it was pretty loud when there was a performer in the evening. But it ended by ten. Room was comfortable with plenty of space. There was a mold issue in the shower but that can be easily remedied.

Starter and main course arrived together but it didn’t matter as there were only 3 pieces of whitebait so £2.50 per piece Bar man on first night told us they didn’t sell a spirit that in the next night they clearly did and he needed to wash his hair.
