Arriving here last Monday , the lady on reception was most professional and courteous , explaining where the breakfast would be , the whisky room , the restaurant etc .. my room was detailed as a single ( snug ? ) room and it was perfect for my needs as an overnight stop single traveller . The room was well appointed , the tv was a little off the mark being as nowadays most hotels of good calibre have wall mounted products rather than this little effort that was perched on a little table at the foot of the bed .. but that would be nitpicking .. and I understand after speaking with the nice lady on reception upon leaving that there is a big plan of progressive refurbishment underway so I’m sure in time , any little foibles will be addressed . The hotel is handy for Elgin , it’s on the whisky trail , it’s marketed as a historic whiskey hotel in its own right , it has a fantastic restaurant on site ( Copper Dog ) that I had an amazing meal at , so I will be back in a month or two with my wife to stay again and have a lovely meal .. Free car parking too !
