The Pitlochry Hydro Hotel

The staff were lovely, particularly in the bar. Last night we were ravenous after a 20km mountain hike, and they went to a special effort to make sure we were well fed, as we almost missed the time to order dessert but they went and asked the chef especially for us. We really appreciated this and the desserts were delicious! Very clean rooms, nice and spacious and comfy beds. It was lovely to have a dip in the pool and jacuzzi after a long day of hiking too.

Lovely traditional hotel in a beautiful setting. Our room ( room 5) was huge and had very modern new furnishings. My adult son and I had a great sleep in the twin beds. Very comfortable and good quality linen. Bathroom was new and very clean. Great shower with very good pressure and soap/ bodywash smelled lovely. The room was on the ground floor beside the leisure centre and pool, so after 5pm there was no traffic past it and at night we couldn't hear a thing! Staff were smashing from Stephen on reception to the bar staff/ serving staff in the restaurant. All were very pleasant, chatty, helpful and hardworking. We had dinner one night in the restaurant. Very good standard of food and service. Would definitely eat there again. Overall, we would happily stay again in this very pleasant hotel. We would get a Superior room, same as this time, as it was modern, cosy and spacious with a great bathroom. Parking was good and close to the hotel doors, although since the hotel was full when we stayed, it filled up fast and I think some guests didn't move their cars the whole weekend, possibly so that they were certain of a parking space to avoid having to park down in the town...which is at the bottom of a very steep hill. The hotel's elevated position in beautiful gardens means it has great views, but the walk back up from the town, if you venture there without your car, might prove a bit strenuous for less able bodied folk. Notwithstanding this, we would certainly stay again. Smashing short break in a very nice traditional old hotel. Thanks, guys! Great stay overall!

With a half board night booking, we had a good dinner and breakfast at the restaurant which looks nice and clean. The staff was attentive and kind. Our beds were comfortable despite their tired aspect (cf what we didn’t like).

Excellent room with scenic view - hills beyond the houses. Room had two bits - living room and bedroom with four poster bed. Very nice. Our adult son had a single room - looked large enough with everything in it. Wifi worked. Very nice breakfast

Reception staff were welcoming and courteous and arranged things very conveniently for us. The room was very comfortable, clean, and bright. We had a very tasty and well presented dinner in the restaurant. Although the waitress seemed to be doing all the work on her own everything went smoothly and the food arrived piping hot.
