Spittal of Glenshee Vacation Packages

I stayed at the hotel for one night on 18 July 2026. First impressions were positive, with what I assume was the manager greeting us on arrival. The room was comfortable, and we had a reasonable night's sleep. Unfortunately, breakfast was disappointing. With only one other table occupied, we had to ask whether we could sit anywhere and if it was table service. We were told it was, but after waiting around 20 minutes without anyone taking our order, we eventually had to go to the bar ourselves. The breakfast staff gave the impression they neither wanted to be there nor serve guests. I also accidentally left an item of clothing behind, which I realised about an hour after leaving Edinburgh. I contacted the hotel by phone and email but initially received no response. When I eventually got through, I was told they had my item, only to later receive an email saying they did not. Once confirmed, I was informed they would not post it back. Considering the price of the hotel, I expected the courtesy of returning a lost item. Instead, I had to arrange for a friend to collect it and was told to complete a lost property form next time. Unfortunately, there won't be a next time. To make matters worse, an unexplained charge of £9.45 has since appeared on my card. I have received no invoice or explanation and am still waiting for a response. Overall, poor customer service and communication overshadowed what started as a pleasant stay.

Lovely apartment. Have now stayed in Edinburgh and St Andrews apartments. Kitchenette light on utensils/cloths but overall a lovely quality property.

Hotel was in a good position within walking distance to Prince St and many cafes and restaurants close by. Only downside is no lift, but staff carried my large suitcase to and from my room when I arrived and vacated. No air-conditioning, but you can open windows and they provide a fan in the room.

Very little to no communication with the staff there. Only saw one person on staff from 10am-6pm. There was no phone number to reach anyone. There was no hot water for more than 12 hours and no one to contact to fix the issue. Location was good and the room was clean and comfortable.

Lovely bedroom, clean and well maintained. Staff lovely and helpful. Public space a bit limited for a hotel of this rating. Feel the outside signage for restaurant/bar lets it down. Breakfast also quite basic but adequate. Couldn’t fault the room or staff though.
