Top Cairngorm Reindeer Herd Hotel Reviews

Macdonald Aviemore Highland Hotel

8/10 Good

"The hotel was very family friendly. Excellent soft play, pool and outdoor playground. The dinner and restaurant were excellent as well. Special thanks to Charles and Augustine at the dining room and breakfast. Augustine went above and beyond to accommodate us. Breakfast itself could have been better. It was lacking options and the vegetarian sausages ran out a few days."

Macdonald Aviemore Hotel

8/10 Good

"The pool is only open till 6 PM, and the town surrounding closes down around 5:30 PM. Nearby is fantastic for touring. We did the falconry and loved it."

Coylumbridge Resort Hotel

8/10 Good

"Check-in was slow as usual. There's a fast-lane for those of us who had checked in online, but it was getting used as a general lane. The person checking us in needed to know who we'd booked with (why? It was all paid, and I'd already checked in online). Next he asked my name, but then said 'No, no, no.' I was sure I was right, but he was sure I was wrong. But then he found me on his computer screen and it turned out that I did know my name. Staff were exceedingly pleasant and helpful, especially the dining area staff. Top marks. Queues at busy times (buffet style) but the food was fine, though not spectacular. For the cost of the meals, one could have a lovely table service meal in a restaurant but if all-you-can-eat appeals, it's not bad. There's plenty of car parking spaces, but lots of white vans parked - and long-wheel base vans take up at least two spaces, and sometimes more if they are wide. Dedicated parking spaces for vans would be useful. At night, it can be hard to find a nearby parking spot but the coach car park always has spaces. Overall, cheap and very good value for money and I do recommend this venue without hesitation."

"Excellent location, clean. The property manager was wonderful. She showed by 11:45pm at night to help us get internet the front door code wasn’t working for us and checked in on us the next day."

Cairngorm Lodge Youth Hostel

10/10 Excellent

"Very well run hostel, we enjoyed a private room with shared bath. Favorite part was the views and location!"
