The stairs were a little tough but staff took our luggage up and down. There was no air conditioning but the air outside was cool enough to bring the room temperature down with the windows open. The place was charming with a beautiful setting. It was very enjoyable!

Lovely castle hotel set in a beautiful valley between the hills. Decor is very Scottish and quite quirky but looking a bit tired in places that could be fixed quite easily and would make the hotel great instead of very good. A charging point for mobile phones in the room would be welcome and an easy fix. Had a truly enjoyable stay and the staff were excellent.

The morale of the staff was terrible. Nobody smiled. The castle hotel is in a remote location and the staff must not be able to get to the nearest town very often. I Would not recommend this place. It has seen better days.

We drove out of our way to stay here but no regrets. The countryside was beautiful and the drivers courteous on the single track roads making a pleasant journey. We ate in the bar area and the food was good and our bartender very accommodating. We had a smaller room but everything we needed. Loved the morning view and we opted for breakfast and it was excellent.

Andrew

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
This is very nice hotel. The staff were excellent, as was the food. The only negative I would say is that it probably needs a little bit of upgrading as some of the past alterations to this lovely historical building were not sympathetic to its aesthetic. I would definitely visit again, especially in the winter when the fires are lit- very cosy for a romantic getaway.

We had an amazing 9 holes of golf with our two daughters at 7 pm, amidst the gorgeous Highlands, many, many sheep - and no one else on the course! We finished the evening with a dram at the bar, billiards with our kids - and woke up to the best Scottish breakfast we have ever had! A truly memorable stay at Dalmunzie! Lovely room, view, food & staff! We will look forward to another stay, some time soon!
