Great stay. Up to standard and rooms were nice. There was a function on during our first night but it only meant we had to park further away but it was only an inconvenience for a day. Food was great and the room was very clean and a great size for what we paid.

Great one night stay.

The staff were all attentive, extremely friendly and more than helpful with any requests. Love music was excellent, table service from the bar all for less than the coat of a budget chain hotel in Inverness. Really impressive surrounding area/grounds, just a shame didnt get to try out the health suite/spa facilities.

This hotel was in a beautiful location. The staff were friendly and check in was a breeze! I loved the warm chocolate chip cookies we were given upon arrival. The hotel has a lot of halls with short stairs that make hauling suitcases a pain, but it’s an old building so to be expected. We loved the coffee shop in Dunblane…Beech Tree I think was the name. Great location close to Stirling castle and other attractions.

Dunblane Hydro Stay.

We stayed at the Dunblane Hydro a number of years ago and we noticed a difference this time. The double room had a tray with kettle etc but there was no decaf tea bags (decaf coffee was available). There were no biscuits or bottled water. There were no dressing gowns or slippers. Perhaps the more expensive rooms would have had these. The room and bathroom was clean and bed and pillows very comfortable. The furniture looked a little tired as did some of the carpets in the corridors. Breakfast was good. Staff were all very nice and helpful. We would return to this hotel but for a Hilton we expected a little more.
