"Breakfast was good value but in general the hotel needs an update. it is quite outdated but I guess this may be reflected in the price. The location is really good., Very central so able to go out to eat and drink without moving the car. The rooms would benefit from some lace or net curtains, we couldn't have the curtains open a lot of the time as everyone can see in. The EV chargers are not ideal, we found that the spaces were full of non EV cars . Reception were very polite but were not able to ask cars to move so we could charge as they didn't have enough parking spaces. We did eventually manage it on the day we were leaving but it is a little frustrating that you cant book a slot to guarantee you have enough charge to travel home. "

"Yes, a good range of choices and the service was excellent "

"The hotel was clean, and the staff were friendly and helpful throughout our stay. We didn’t use all of the facilities, such as the pool and sauna, but we did have a look and everything appeared to be in working order. Breakfast was good, with a reasonable selection of well-cooked items. We ate dinner at the hotel once and found the food to be fairly average. The bedroom was clean and tidy, and the tea and coffee supplies were generous. There were a few maintenance issues: the window had a loose sash rope, the door had a noticeable gap which allowed both light and noise through, making the room a little noisy at times, the shower temperature was very difficult to regulate and ran extremely hot so care was needed when using it, and the toilet seat did not fit the toilet properly. Overall, for the price we paid, it was reasonably comfortable and suitable for a short stay."

"Lovely welcoming team at the hotel. Decided to eat at the hotel reataurant for our evening meal and had excellent food and service. Comfy room and short walk to the centre of Pitlochry so perfect for our short break. Breakfast was good with views overlooking the nearby hills."

"We were looked after really well. The staff couldn't do enough for us. My wife didn't liked smoked bacon for breakfast, which the hotel served. So, Sue went out specially to provide it for my wife on the following morning. We will return."

"The hotel itself as well as the entire property is beautiful and well maintained. Beds were comfortable, rooms clean, food was good. Prices were exorbitant for literally everything. Most are across Scotland and the UK. The real issue we encountered, was certain staff were distasteful and had an obvious distain for foreigners. We come from Texas, I brought my dad here for his 68th birthday as a surprise to see our homeland. Mirela and her sidekick (short dark hair and blue eyes) openly pointed and snickered at us during our $200 dinner (on may 1st at 6pm - for management to look into). I can only guess they assumed we were a couple? Either way it was very disheartening and extremely rude. I hope management takes this seriously because we will not be recommending this place to any of our friends or family due to this disrespect. Spending over $1,000 for a 2 night stay, I would expect a much higher caliper of class. With that said, most other staff was kind and helpful. The front desk clerk may need to work on her poker face to help hide her disdain for travelers as well. Angi I believe."

"We had a lovely stay with our dog. He was made to feel very welcome with plenty of treats and fusses from all the staff. The location is great and the area surrounding has plenty to see and do."

"Staff were great "

"Wonderful stay at McKays in the beautiful town of Pitlochry. Front desk and restaurant staff were friendly and helped make our stay enjoyable."
