A peaceful and comfortable hotel with very nice meals in the downstairs restaurant. This was a lovely place from which to explore Cairngorms National Park. Staff was friendly and helpful. I'd definitely recommend the hotel to friends!

Great little hotel, very friendly with a super bar and restaurant.
Bed was very comfortable and room was spacious and clean.
Take a walk along the Riverside walk and into the woodland walk to see all the amazing wood sculptures.

Great location. It was on main street and had a restaurant in the hotel. Walking distance from a 9 hole golf course. The hotel rooms need a little upgrading but a very nice place to stay.

The Cairn Hotel is a real gem in the highlands. The food is fantastic, Gareth is a great host and the rooms are clean and comfortable. If you are looking for a real highland hotel, this is a must

Cute old multi-house hotel. We were in a satellite building that I liked better than the main building. Breakfast was very good. We did not try the pub/restaurant. More laid back than Aviemore.

Wonderful hotel. The second time I have stayed here. Wonderful staff. Nothing is too much trouble. Alice is an absolute star.
Great food with generous portions. If you ate a full breakfast you would need to walk ten miles to walk it off.
Cannot praise this hotel enough
