Top Hotels Near Backwater Reservoir Viewpoint in Blairgowrie from AU$132

"Staff was not friendly and offered no explanations regarding breakfast or which rooms on the main floor were open for guest use. Since it is INCREDIBLY difficult to get to and there’s no towns nearby, we had no options but to eat dinner there. The food was good but this definitely brought up our overall costs. Our stay was okay but given that it was by far our most expensive stay of our Scotland trip, I can’t say I’d recommend it. P "

"Our stay was disappointing from the moment we arrived. Check‑in was uninformative, and we were handed a piece of paper that turned out to contain outdated instructions about car registration. After rushing back downstairs, we were told it didn’t apply — so it really shouldn’t be given to guests at all. The restaurant experience wasn’t any better. Service was poor, the staff complained about making cocktails, and they were spilled twice. The food was average, the wine list wasn’t available, and they had even run out of beer. The pool area was under maintenance and clearly in need of repair, which wasn’t communicated beforehand. When we lost our room key in the lockers, the response from the front desk was rude and dismissive, with the staff member more focused on her phone than helping. Overall, the hotel itself was average, but the staff and service were well below expectations. We would not return."

"Bedroom was excellent, where the hotel falls down was the lounge area which lacked atmosphere and although you could purchase drinks, there was no bar…. and you were unable to see the staff pour. Tables and chairs very tightly packed together and not the most relaxing. Breakfast had a great choice of food but again tables very close together not much room to move between them. Staff were very friendly and pleasant."

"Quiet location in the Perthshire countryside. Nice room, small bar and friendly staff"

"The room was clean. Breakfast was reasonable, lots of choice, but nothing special. Spa treatment was amazing. Pool too cold, steam room didn't seem to be working efficiently. Hot tub didn't seem very powerful and wasn't monitored for people not getting out when it was off. Major disappointment was I'd taken a voucher to use to go towards my stay, the receptionist didn't enter the code when we checked in, she said she'd do it later. When we went to check out she told us the voucher wouldn't work and we owed the full amount. I was highly surprised that we weren't informed as soon as she found the voucher wasn't working to give us notice, I also felt the receptionist wasn't very sorry about the inconvenience caused. I feel this wasn't great service and wouldn't stay again for this reason and the other facts stated above unless the price was significantly less, as it stands the facilities weren't actually value for money.
