We were on a long drive home from the North Coast to Edinburgh and decided late to give up and spend the night in Aviemore. This was perfect, lovely hotel, great service, excellent filling breakfast included. And perfect location for heading up to the Cairngorm Mountain Railway the next day.

We were very happy with our stay here. It was clean, beds were comfortable and a great location next to Glencoe National Park. Our stay also gave us credit for dinner and breakfast, both of which were very good. The staff was friendly and very attentive. It is within walking distance to the downtown area. Very happy with this hotel.

Arrived 8.45, no possibility of dinner, surly receptionist, police arrived later, drunk folk in the bar, felt like a run down dump. One barman doing his best, felt for him
Breakfast a far more positive experience, room was adequate, no frills, not even water.
Certainly wouldn’t return by choice

Resort severely in need of some TLC. Smelly room with lots of broken items. Overpriced for what it is. Food was very poor quality.

Don’t be fooled by the photos. They show different places within the ‘resort’ and the most standout photos are of the ‘Highland Hotel’ part of the resort. Double check which hotel you are staying in within the resort to avoid disappointment.

The property is very dated, the cleanliness is not great, the rooms looked clean but were still dusty and musty smelling. The staff however were great, super friendly and helpful. Pool was good the kids really enjoyed this facility, but no information about timings, we were lucky we arrived before it closed! The parking was good lots of space.

So many doors down the hallways to the rooms. The door outside our room was a main walkway and was opening and slamming all hours of the night.

I arrived the booked hotel, but there were empty. I have been waiting one hour outside the hotel during cold weather. There is no direct contact to the hotel from hotel.com
Finally I found their contact # from their website. They moved my booking to another hotel, Macdonald Highlands Hotel, without any notice to me. They told me because I booked the hotel from 3rd party (Hotels.com) so they can’t contact me. I think it is non sense. I can’t pay £25 for the dinner package, I have to pay the normal price from their menu (because I moved another hotel so I have to changed my plan for dinner).

I think I expected too much from this hotel going by the pictures and the experience I’ve had at other MacDonald hotels I expected a comfortable stay. The hotel was in need of a refurbishment especially the bathroom area. I found the surround of the bath had not been cleaned and found a dead spider on the window sill. I know these are little things but we stayed at this hotel as they offered a Christmas experience so expected my children to stay in a clean bedroom. The hotel room was very cold it was -9 outside I turned the heater to the maximum but it still was only mildly warm to touch. After a couple of visits to reception the agreed to bring up a heater which made a massive difference. Breakfast was okay again my expectations were high especially since it was advertised as a family friendly Christmas weekend break there was hardly anything child friendly for breakfast apart from cereal. I won’t be returning to this hotel I don’t think it represents the MacDonald brand well.

No stars to Hotels.com who send the wrong information about which MacDonald Hotel we were staying in. I was sent details for a hotel which is currently closed at the MacDonald resort. The resort has three hotels, one of which is currently closed for renovation and we wasted some time looking for the correct hotel. The actual hotel, the MacDonald Highlander was very comfortable though in need of some updating. Very tasty buffet breakfast.

Very tired and run down, the hotel looks awful from the outside and isn't much better inside as soon as you walk in the place smells damp and musty, the bar and restaurant are drab, the stairwells and corridors desperately need freshened up as do the carpets and bathrooms in the room. We had a room right next to the stairwell and were constantly woken up through the night by the doors banging. So glad we only had to stay one night definitely won't be back.
