The staff were friendly but the room was not clean or comfortable. It was very small. The bedding was acceptable but the windows were dirty and there were marks on the walls.

2/10 Poor

Worst hotel ever stayed in

The hotel was filthy, carpets worn. No hot water so had to have a cold shower. Water stains on bedroom ceiling. Overall a very unpleasant stay.

Short break in Dunkeld

Hotel in lovely location on Dunkeld Main Street. Helpful and friendly staff. Nice room. However the place needs some TLC with worn / uneven carpets, windows and cupboards in communal areas needing repair. Dunkeld is a very nice place. Plenty of lovely cafes and restaurants nearby and lovely walking both along the river from the town and further afield to Loch of the Lowes and The Hermitage (NTS).
John, 1-night trip

Beautiful hotel in need of some talc. Staff very friendly
Mabel, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Not great value for money. Towels were not fully clean and the twin room only had one duvet.
Will, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice and central

Booked the annexe, on arriving looked pretty grim, but inside was clean and welcoming, we got upgraded to the main hotel due to an error on room allocation. The staff were all friendly, pleasant and the hotel was clean. It is in need of some upgrading, improvments, but for the price we paid it was worth it. The restaurant was clean, space between tables, the food was okay, we only ate in one night. We enjoyed a game of pool. Overall we would go back, nice and central.

Donald, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I had a lovely time here. The room was clean, and for a Saturday evening it was quiet . It is an older building but I love the charm. I also love the coffee and tea in room amenities. The front desk reception was easy and very kind service. Would recommend this place.
Creo, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Was great for a one night stop over en route. Beautiful countryside access. Hotel old, well used but quaint and functional. Staff helpful.
Rosemary, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Given wrong room number at check in which was already occupied. Dirty room, coridors poorly lit, mould on ceiling, staff inattentive to needs, creaky floors, only stayed one night out of desperation. Avoid at all costs.
Craig, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The Royal Dunkeld Hotel wins hands down for the helpfulness and kindness of its staff. There are choices in stunning Dunkeld but the service here has been outstanding. I have been upgraded, offered a function room for a meeting, and have extended my stay here because of it.
Rebecca, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Property in grave need of a good clean and maintenance both inside and out. Pervasive smell of greasy food inside hotel. Breakfast was poor quality. Outside lodge rooms like garden sheds, dark access unmade paths weeds. etc. Door to electric cupboard hanging off hinges. To be fair interior of lodge room was clean, but cramped. Bathroom was 1.5m square. No toilet brush provided.

This is a lovely old hotel which we have stayed in many times.
Dorothy, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The hotel could do with a bit of an update. The shower tray was not great with a fixed head that only wanted to clean the wall opposite. The bed was squeaky and the lighting was a bit brutal. The location is excellent though.
