Beautiful stay with amazing views/setting and the staff were so friendly and helpful, particularly Puneet who checked us in and the restaurant staff (I forgot to get their names sorry!) who were very attentive and gave great recommendations. Food was also delicious, highly recommend the Indian! And really recommend booking the hot tub and sauna. We will definitely come back!

Very lovely hotel stay with our family of four. The location is absolutely gorgeous by the water. We had a room with a balcony that was worth the extra cost. Dinner was very good at the hotel as well. Breakfast was included and lovely. Staff is very nice and accommodating.

We had the most delightful stay at the Whispering Pines Hotel. Spotless hotel with delightful and polite staff. The night was very stormy but we felt warm and cosy and despite the numerous times the electricity cut out the generators kicked in and we were back on with power with no fuss. My only criticism is the meal prices were way too high and the choices were too limited

This was the first time that I visited Whispering Pine Lodge. The stay was good. What struck me though was that I only paid about £250 thereabout for the night (which is the discounted rate) and that under normal circumstances one would have to pay in excess of £650 a night. I believe that the owners are Indian and own hotels in India and with that in mind, to stay at Umaid Bhawan is about £400/night the last time I checked and Whispering Pine lodge is not even on that level. The hotel was clean, and the food was good and of good quality. The staff were very well mannered and courteous. Its a beautiful setting and although the outside of the hotel is in need of restoration the inside was pleasing. The decor needs updating to relfect the price of the what people are going to pay, like the odd rug or runner in the corridor or room that looks like something out of ASDA or B&Q. I would think that if one is paying in excess of £600 a night they would closer on par to what is being offered at the Fife Arms in Braemar. Nonetheless it was pleasant. Not a place to return to but pleasant

Whilst the setting of this property was breathtaking, the rooms were a little tired and there didn’t seem to be enough staff for the number of covers at breakfast and dinner. However the bay man of the Robert Burns bar called Anand was exceptional. His cocktails were amazing and he seemed to be the hardest working member of staff.

A truly lovely hotel. Nestled on the side of a stunning loch the lodge is in an awe inspiring location. However, the whole stay was an experience. The owner has clearly spent a lot of money on ensuring that this property is modern with a traditional, yet contemporary feel. From the moment we arrived the staff were a stand out and all deserve a thank you. You can have a beautiful building and location but without the right people it means little. We ate in the restaurant and the clever mix of Indian inspired dishes on one part is woven together extremely well with the more expected Scottish dishes. Breakfast is a very good buffet with plentiful choice. They also have a small spa with many treatments so make sure you book ahead.
