Find Mountain View Hotels in Pitlochry

Decided to ignore poor reviews and make my own judgement on this hotel. Just back from 2 nights staying at said establishment, £414 for the pleasure!!! Are you sitting comfortably? If so, I'll begin.... Stayed in Room 111, 1st floor (allegedly), walked along 1st floor corridor, climbed over pile of dirty laundry, (as staff were still cleaning rooms at 4pm), then down some stairs, to what looked like servants quarters, small corridor with a few rooms, somewhere staff may have been located in 'Upstairs/Downstairs' (if you are old enough to remember that) Room 111 meant to be a King-size room, not very King, Queen or Princess - like. Bed definitely wasn't King-size, room didn't look like pictures of King-size rooms on their website, decor was tired and dated, can't really call it decor, it was just BLAH, looked like a cheap room you might find in FOUR IN A BED ((MDF furniture and cheap bed linen) , it was actually really depressing, the location didn't help, (the windows were just above hotel refuse station, a lot of Crash, Bang, Wallop) and the wardrobe only had 4 coat hangers..... 4 is barely enough for me over a weekend, let alone 2 people!! Decided it can't be all bad, surely?? Let's look at the facilities, possibly this was the reason for the inflated price tag, as it certainly isn't the room!! To get to gym and pool, which is why I booked this hotel,(and to have a relaxing weekend), you need to walk through the SPA treatment area, which is kindly signposted for you, it also tells you to keep quiet as treatments in progress, seriously!!! After we crept through SPA Treatment area, being careful not to breathe too loudly, talk, laugh, live, you get to the pool changing area which leads on to the gym, where we were going (all this with our trainers on - and whilst swimmers have bare feet, not very hygienic and quite slippy), had a quick look at the pool on the way, and the jacuzzi, both were a lot smaller than I had anticipated, having seen the photographs online, unfortunately, as was the gym, which was barely a mini-gym, I have more equipment at home, no weights whatsoever, we decided to give it a miss and headed quietly back to reception/bar for a refreshment. The bar area and reception are merged into one, so don't try and get an overpriced drink when it's check - in time (your room wont be ready in time either), as you could have a looooonnnggg wait (for both). I also didn't know the bar area had a cinema when I booked, sorry, my mistake, it's actually a big window looking right onto the swimming pool. For me, and it's just me, if I am booking into a SPA hotel, I want the whole experience to be relaxing, I don't want to be in the matinee screening of SPLASH, nor do I want to have to go to the reception/bar area for towels, or sign in to a register, with the time I am going into the pool. I am not going to steal the towels, towels should just be readily available, it's Scotlands SPA Hotel for goodness sake, people will use the pool!

Very central hotel. Stayed in a twin Cosy room. Looked out to train station. Walked in and first impression was poor as the one window was filthy looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in a very, very long time. Room was clean but very basic. Tea & coffee in room which I like. Iron and ironing board which was good also. Parts of the hotel look dated a but tired, not like what is shown in the tv advert. Room was very hot but there was a fan in the room which was helpful as it was needed. Breakfast was delicious, I would stay again because of the location. The staff at check in were very helpful especially when I arrived and there was no space in the car park. Although we didn’t eat in the hotel it looked like they served lovely food. Live entertainment in the bar of hotel on Saturday night. Lovely courtyard area if you want to sit outside or have a walk around. All In all it was pleasant enough, I’d go back just a real shame about how filthy the bedroom window was couldn’t look out to enjoy the view.

The hotel is great, the service facilities are superb, the super five stars, the scenery is also very good, but the location is really hearty, no matter which way to the road conditions can scare you not to continue to open

Fantastic place to stay when visiting Pitlochry. Friendly warm welcome from concierge. Rooms and public areas beautifully decorated and very comfortable. Service in restaurant was very efficient although could have been friendlier. Breakfast menu was a bit confusing that the continental option was a starter to share - would have been helpful if this had been explained by staff. Spa itself is a bit underwhelming as both the pool and outdoor hot tubs look straight onto the car parking and the communal areas were very cold as a door was left permanently open to allow access to the outdoor hot tubs. Spa staff very friendly though.

Stayed for 2 nights in one of the terrace rooms in the separate building. It was absolutely beautiful, spotlessly clean and such a lovely location with stunning views. Probably the best hotel breakfast I have ever had, so much food and all fresh and tasty, with wonderful coffee too! 5 minute walk down the road to the Main Street and few minutes walk to the co-op. Amazing stay, we will definitely be back 🥰 thank you!

Enjoyed an excellent birthday lunch at the Old Manse of Blair restaurant (between Blair Atholl and House of Bruar). Staff very friendly and welcoming with our meal served in the lovely orangey setting. All the dishes were beautifully presented and delicious. Wine list was comprehensive and reasonably priced. Lunch was £49 for three courses with some delightful extra entremets/amuse-bouche. I think it is expensive to stay but can recommend the lunch for a special treat.

Was greeted by Nancy when we arrived, she was so warm and welcoming, she even remembered us from last year staying. The beds are so comfy, the rooms are spacious and very clean. Absolutely love this hotel and will be back. The lady doing breakfast was so lovely in the morning too we really appreciated it. See you next year! Justine and Kirsty xox
