Scotlands Spa Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"I spent two nights at the Spa hotel. I managed to park in the adjacent hotel car park which was very convenient. My room was great with a large TV , coffee machine, fridge and kettle. A proper bath in the en suite. Plenty of hangers. Breakfast was plentiful and a good variety. The only downside of my stay was I was housed in a separate building to the main hotel. This meant I had to walk outside onto the pavement and cross a road to access my room. However you were away from the noise of the main hotel."

Loch Rannoch Hotel and Spa

10/10 Excellent
"This is a beautiful hotel which we will return to for a longer stay. Lovely location on the shores of Loch Rannoch. We didn't use the spa facilities but did have a look and the pool is a proper swimming pool which is great. Next time I will bring my kit, although I believe a lot of people swim in the loch. Our room was beautifully furnished and high quality toiletries are supplied for the shower. The staff on reception and at breakfast were very professional, friendly and helpful and very smartly dressed. The bar area has a number of games for wet and wild evenings, and playing cards are available on request. The only area I'm not so sure about is the kitchen. Our steaks were overdone, and when I asked for information on the cheeses provided on the cheeseboard, I got no more information than 'a Scottish brie' - it's a bit like saying the wine is a French white . That might be acceptable, but not in a restaurant which purports to be fine dining, At breakfast, the porridge served was almost raw oats, but the buffet had a tremendous selection of beautiful produce. It's just a shame that the plates are not hot for the hot food,"
