We booked 2 nights at Crieff Hydro to relax and recharge before we get married in 12 weeks time. We arrived on the Friday night ,checked in and found our room no problem. We were thrilled at the size of the room and the bathroom. All decorated to a high standard. The views were great once the rain clouds disappered!... More

This hotel resort is in a lovely area with stunning views but is like a giant nursery with young children screaming everywhere. Room was nice and spacious with lovely bathroom, view was onto car park though. We ate in the more casual restaurant having to working our way through buggies to our table, the food was pleasant, very tasty. Breakfast... More

My only beef was with the spa, I found the tiles needed cleaning and the floor was always wet around the bathroom area after paying £10 to get in one would expect a little better. also, upon returning in the afternoon there was no beds available to retire on. This might sound petty but it bothered me. Breakfast was excellent... More

The Crieff Hydro hotel prides itself to be the longest existing registered trade in Scotland and started as a balneotherapeutic facility in the days of Queen Victoria. It has changed a bit since then, but has retained the ambience of a Victorian estate, which makes it a very interesting place to be (think bowling green, croquet, riding, golf of course... More

We stayed mon-fri in a chalet with our 2 years old. We love the hydro, from the cosy chalet, to the excellent kids club. Loads for the wee one to do and time off for us when she is in the club. We will definitely return. Few gripes: No housekeeping in the 4 days and no new towels We were... More

Having travelled through Crieff dozens of times I have never visited the Hydro. Attended a two day business meeting where the service, facilities and food were excellent throughout. So good to see this level of service being offered in Scotland where we sometimes take the service and tourist industry for granted.

I organised a weekend away for my husband, my daughter and myself and stayed here over the May bank holiday weekend 3rd to 6th May 2013 - one of the busiest times of the year. Our executive family room was lovely, a large king size bed and a single for my daughter aged 5yrs with plenty of room for guests... More

Have just spent 3 days here with two daughters, hubbies and five grand daughters 2 to 7 years. I wouldn't have believed an hotel could please such a age range 2 to 62 but Crieff Hydro manages it with loads to spare. Rooms large and well fitted out with great showers which is a must for me. The kids were... More
