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.

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.

the staff were friendly, but the room was very basic, the gutter outside the door needed maintenance which caused water to pour out during the night, keeping us awake. Lovely location, but the annex rooms need a lot more love.

Stayed here for one night and would not return again. The public areas and bar were dirty with threadbare carpet on the stairs. The electric cables from tv and sound system in bar was a complete mess. All twisted and plugged into adapter on floor. Our room wasn’t the best and the cushions on the bed were soiled and dirty. We couldn’t find the light switch for the bathroom but figured out it was behind the wall mounted tv!!! Didn’t use the shower as it didn’t look appealing. We had a look in the function room and it looked like the people had just gone as the tables were littered with glasses and half finished drinks from a function five days earlier. We left without having breakfast and safe to say we won’t be returning

A stopover on our way home. The hotel could be described as ‘tired’ but was more than made up for by the super friendly staff.

Very old building and it was a little confusing trying to find the entrance. Room was on the top floor which was a bit difficult for my elderly father.
