Freetobook, Braemar hotels

"On accommodation alone, 5 stars. Staff were lovely and accommodating. Restaurant was good but just that. Service excellent but food unexceptional. Okay but I've had better. A lot of it felt bought in rather than developed and cooked on site."

"Gorgeous hotel in the centre of Ballater. Only 9 miles from Balmoral Castle, Crathie Kirk and various walks. Staff are so welcoming and accomodating. Tasteful Scottish decor with a modern twist. Beautifully decorated rooms, quiet location ensures peaceful sleep. Delicious, quality meals and breakfast. Atmospheric "Ghillies" bar, live fiddle music. We will definitely be back."

"Good location. Breakfast is amazing. "

"Excellent bed and breakfast. Stayed here for 4 nights whilst visiting my daughter in this area. Superb breakfast and hosts. Very hospitable and welcoming. Thank you. "

"Stayed the night with my other half and kids. Rooms were nice and clean and the food was amazing! "

"Loved it so much we extended our stay by one night."

"Really relaxing stay - the hotel is in a stunning Glen on the edge of the Caingorms with spectacular scenery. The staff were really helpful (all of them) and my evening dinner was great. I regret not staying for longer, but will be back. Only negative (but may be a positive) was the lack of a phone signal - although the wifi was great."

"Great value for money. Good location and facilities."
