It was my sister’s 90th birthday party and the function suite was ideal for this. Separate areas where you could chat and more open ones for cake cutting etc

Lovely, traditional, but tired
We had a lovely stay at the Duke of Gordon. Staff were very friendly and welcoming, it is clear that the hotel is important to both its community and many returning guests. A wonderful location for exploring the Cairngorms and visiting the Highland Wildlife Park Time hasn't been a great friend however: The building was in need of upgrades in both the public areas and the bedrooms. And at times service fell beyond the level expected. It did not feel that the hotel was well managed. We may well return in the future and very much hope to see much needed improvements to this grand old hotel.

2 night in Kinguisse
The hotel is a stately old lady. Heaps of history and the squeaky floors to go along with it…there’s no sneaking to the bathroom in the middle of the night🙂 Breakfast was included, it was pretty good and the staff were exceptional.

Great location
Upstairs room was over the ballroom so it was pretty loud when there was a performer in the evening. But it ended by ten. Room was comfortable with plenty of space. There was a mold issue in the shower but that can be easily remedied.

Starter and main course arrived together but it didn’t matter as there were only 3 pieces of whitebait so £2.50 per piece Bar man on first night told us they didn’t sell a spirit that in the next night they clearly did and he needed to wash his hair.

The hotel has ample parking is is really grand inside- it even has a ballroom! Our room was very large and very well appointed. Not all floors are serviced by the single lift and this could be a problem if you have any mobility issues. There is a bar on-site, which serves great food and is lovely for a drink after a busy day of activity. The breakfast was not tasty- food was served in heaters- which meant that some food was dry because it was sat in the heaters for ages or floating around in so much grease it was not appetising.

I have stayed here twice in the last two months. The newer rooms over the ballroom are smaller and thinner walls and noisier. Luckily we were able to move rooms for the last two nights. Breakfast is ok, but needs more options.

Friendly staff. Tired environment
Staff were very friendly and efficient in all areas. However the hotel had overall a tired feel and decor. The room had a broken mirror and the plug in the bath was blocked. The room needs upgrading. These were reported.

The hotel was quite dates in terms of its interior. Breakfast was ok but the large buffet style heated plates were not quite hot enough.
