Booked the Craigellachie hotel as a last minute trip for my partners birthday. The hotel is beautiful and the location very good. Food in the restaurant was excellent and the service from Oscar in the Quaich bar made our whole trip. The bathroom in our room was a little tired, but we didn’t spend a whole lot of time in the room so didn’t mind. Would definitely return.

Beautiful old house - that is very modern and comfortable on the inside. Staff were very helpful, and made our visit very enjoyable. Food was great, and the Quaic bar was excellent. The location was brilliant for accessing many distilleries in the area.

In the heart of Speyside and a short drive from multiple renowned distilleries, there is no better place to stay if you are on a whiskey tour with friends. Everything from the whiskey bar to the breakfast were excellent and we would definitely visit againz
