We stayed there with some friends, the hotel is old and average. The owner however is very friendly and helpful. Rooms are OK but old. For our diner we ordered the sirloin steak but this was not what we are used in Belgium.

We absolutely loved this hotel. Our room was spacious, warm and had a great view of the town and mountains. However, it was the staff that really made this place memorable, particularly the manager. We also ate at the restaurant. On the first night my husbands lamb fillet was a bit overcooked, and we were not charged. The second night... More

My husband and I stayed at the Scot House Hotel in October 2009 and loved it. The location was convenient for walking downtown, and the staff was warm and welcoming. We actually showed up a little early, and the manager allowed us to get into our room as soon as it was clean. We did not eat at the restaurant... More

Where do I start... Bar staff had never heard of a 'Shandy' or 'Fresh Orange & Lemonade!!! Ordered Fillet Steak stuffed with Haggis, what arrived can only be the worst meal ever.... 'Fillet Steak' on the plate was in fact a grissly beef olive, Called the manger over as this was really a joke, explained that the 'cut' of meat... More

I booked one of the more expensive rooms here, looking for a little luxury on a weekend away. When we got there the proprietor told us the internet wasn't working and he'd never gotten the reservation, so we were placed in one of the less nice rooms. It was a bit dim and outdated, and because we'd been charged extra... More

Having paid for this booking for 4 people in advance (compulsory requirement), my stomach dropped as we turned in to the car park!! Having seen photos from previous reviews I was astounded at how untidy and tired the car park and hotel entrance appeared. The plants & shrubs were overgrown and the whole area looked in need of smartening up.... More

A small hotel in the centre of Kingussie. Warm welcome when we arrived. Room clean, albeit a bit of a musty smell. WIFI advertised but never worked in the duration we were there. Breakfast ok, we never ate in the restaurant

Great quiet hotel, with parking, bar and restaurant. Me and my partner stayed here for two nights it was really nice and very clean. If i am looking to visit kingussie again I will definately be staying in this hotel. The whirpool bath is very relaxing :)

After reading about this hotel on the internet I was quite impressed. After staying in Kingussie before I thought I landed lucky when booking a nice surprise for hubbys 40th. We arrived and all seemed fine. Lovely room nice jacuzzi bathroom, clean and friendly owner. Dinner time came. It all went down hill. Barbeque mushrooms. Disgusting. Game pie heated up... More

My husband and I had a short honeymoon in the Highlands. We made our base at the Scot House Hotel. On our departure I realised I had left my GHD hair straighteners and hair dryer in the room. When we returned and asked to get them, well they were not to be found. I must ask the question, what happened?... More
