Hotels near Explorers Garden

"The hotel itself as well as the entire property is beautiful and well maintained. Beds were comfortable, rooms clean, food was good. Prices were exorbitant for literally everything. Most are across Scotland and the UK. The real issue we encountered, was certain staff were distasteful and had an obvious distain for foreigners. We come from Texas, I brought my dad here for his 68th birthday as a surprise to see our homeland. Mirela and her sidekick (short dark hair and blue eyes) openly pointed and snickered at us during our $200 dinner (on may 1st at 6pm - for management to look into). I can only guess they assumed we were a couple? Either way it was very disheartening and extremely rude. I hope management takes this seriously because we will not be recommending this place to any of our friends or family due to this disrespect. Spending over $1,000 for a 2 night stay, I would expect a much higher caliper of class. With that said, most other staff was kind and helpful. The front desk clerk may need to work on her poker face to help hide her disdain for travelers as well. Angi I believe."

"Staff were great "

"A very clean room, excellent bathroom with a big shower."

"Lovely hotel. We were met by the friendly owner Greg when we arrived and shown to a lovely room with great views over the hills. The whole hotel (a former large house) is beautifully decorated in keeping with the house, and has well kept gardens for sunny days. Very close to the town centre but quiet. Breakfast was delicious and very well presented. Highly recommended all round."

"Wonderful stay at McKays in the beautiful town of Pitlochry. Front desk and restaurant staff were friendly and helped make our stay enjoyable."

"Great location, friendly and helpful staff, comfy bed, great breakfast, complimentary whisky!!"

"What a wonderful place to stay. Paul and Dean make you feel like you are visiting their home and do everything they can to spoil you. Besides the fact that the location is beautiful, they also deliver quality in what they serve at breakfast and, if desired, dinner. Pitlochry itself is too touristy for us, but Birchwood is a reason to come back!"

"The room and ensuite were fine - comfy bed, good view from room 3. We didn't use the small bar but it looked very snug. The restaurant serves Indin food, which was not on our agenda that night, but the breakfast was good, from the same room with good airy views. Staff were excellent and helpful."

"Lovely one night stay. Staff were amazing. Nothing too much trouble. Would recommend."
