The breakfast baskets were a good start to the day, filled with muesli, yogurt, and fresh fruit, all perfectly portioned.
The older sash windows could rattle during strong winds, which might disturb light sleepers when the weather gets rough.

The hosts were super friendly and my room was comfy. A bit more storage would've been sweet, but otherwise, loved the place!

We really enjoyed this old-style hotel. Overall it was large and beautiful with wood burning stove. The venue's location was INCREDIBLE, just off the restaurants and bars in Ballater, pubs, shops and restaurants, and bars.

The older sash windows rattled a bit in strong winds, which might bother light sleepers, and I missed the chance to meet fellow guests over breakfast due to everyone opting for those baskets. While those baskets were nice, a communal breakfast experience can really enhance a stay.

Our stay was really enjoyable, greatly enjoyed delicious breakfasts.
The unit we got was good sized with the bedroom, a garden view, for example.

Ballater vibes❤️
Cathy and Alan were just the best hosts, bringing brekkie to our room like champs! The comfy bed was a dream, I almost missed my own at home!
Just wish there was a bit more storage for our stuff, but no biggie really.

The location is fantastic, just a short stroll to the town centre, where we found charming shops and eateries. The large double room was comfortable, offering ample space and a cozy environment. Breakfast was a unique experience, as we prepared it ourselves at our own leisure, including delicious muesli with Greek yogurt and fresh fruit.
Occasional street noise could disrupt a peaceful sleep, especially on busier nights.

Had a fantastic stay! Loved the flexibility of breakfast in our room-with a delicious muesli basket-and the comfy bed was a real treat! A bit more storage would've been nice, but that's just me.

We loved the breakfast in our room and enjoyed hikes in the nearby mountains. The hosts were very accommodating. The location was spot on for exploring quaint shops and eating at local restaurants. Highly recommend for a fun getaway!
One slight downside was the occasional street noise at night, which might bother some light sleepers.

The room was spacious and comfortable. The breakfast baskets were a standout, with delicious pastries and fresh fruit that added a lovely start to each day. The sash windows rattled a bit during gusty winds, and the lack of a true garden view from our room was a disappointment. Lastly, having to keep the blinds closed while changing was not ideal for privacy.
