SYHA Hostelling Scotland Ballater hotels

"Great hotel..yes bit dated but absolutely spotless clean! Pool n Sauna facilities brilliant. Food fantastic and staff could'nt do enough for you. Room was very bright and airy. Only one wee small thing..shower was very sluggish but again spotless clean. Totally relaxing break. We will definitely be back!"

"We had a lovely two night stay at the Balmoral Arms. Fiona in particular was a standout—warm and welcoming, and extremely helpful in assisting with dining reservations We hope to be back some day! "

"Stayed here three times in May, nice modern rooms, walkable to main town area. "

"Return visit - facilities good. Will happily return when in the area. "

"Property was nice. Was able to have two rooms next to each other as my family doesn’t fit into 1 in UK. Breakfast had lots of options and was enjoyable. Within walking distance of Main Street with shops and restaurants. "

"This was one of the best stays of our 3 week trip! Don't miss this place!"

"The staff are the greatest asset. All friendly, helpful and smiling. The food at breakfast and dinner was exceptional. The room was huge - only negative was that it was a big too warm inside because the weather was sunny. No air con ( I don’t think). The grounds are gorgeous and views breathtaking. Extremely handy for Explorers Garden and Pitlochry theatre. Will definitely be back. Great facilities : gym, pool, hit tubs - lovely bar area too. "

"Pleasant location "

"Lovely hotel in a beautiful area"
