after reading some of the reviews about the hotel and got some sort of disappointment with another hotel in town, we decided to try the Royal for one night. Unfortunately we were not as lucky as the other guests below and everything has gone wrong during our stay. The impression and memories are not good at all! more

We have used many hotels north of Glasgow over past 5 years while visiting family - and finally - found a gem worthy of note for all travellers expecting excellent standards of ; cleanliness, customer care, quality food and table service, and everything else one would expect from such an establishment. If in the past you have found Scottish hotels... more

Stayed two nights at the Elgin. Our room was very clean and spacious. Good view from balcony. Excellent, helpful and friendly service. Meals in the restaurant were fresh and tasty. A small bar off the the dining area is a bonus. more

Stayed at the Royal for the weekend with my wife and friends and we were all absolutely thrilled by our experience. The guys played some golf at Elgin (wonderful parkland course ) and the girls did some shopping and also had a day trip to Inverness. The railway station is directly over the road from the hotel and the journey... more

My family and I travelled around the Highlands for the first time on a self driven car. Driving on the other side of the road, navigating through countless roundabouts can be daunting for a first timer. Our not so reliable GPS could not locate this hotel. Thanks to my temporary T-Mobile Number (Get a UK Mobile Number, truly handy in... more

The food was always first class and served promptly as well as the drinks in the bar area. We made really good friends with many of the staff that work in the hotel. I... more

The first thing that strikes you about the Royal Hotel, Elgin is that it is immaculately clean. The rooms are spacious with a fresh aroma, they are well equipped with television, hairdrier and ironing facilities. The owners, Gwen & Alan, are friendly, helpful and are keen to ensure that guests are happy. They could teach many of the big hotel... more
