"The property was clean,, quaint, and charming. The restaurant was delicious! I had dinner and breakfast the next morning. It was one of the best steaks I’ve ever had or should I say that I’ve had in Scotland so far. The staff was amazing! Carolyn went above, beyond and out of her way to make sure I was well taken care of, and I greatly appreciate it. The Royal Hotel is lucky to have her."

"I came here for a golf trip and it was very conveniently placed, less than 15 mins from each course. Nice quiet area in the corner of town (I stayed in the annex) with parking right outside and beautiful scenary. Pubs/restaurants only a 5-10 minute walk away. My only 2 gripes were that the sound proofing was non-existent, so you could hear every word and movement of the other guests. The shower was also very snug and water pressure was pretty poor. Otherwise, I slept well and the staff were extremely friendly! My dinner in the hotel restaurant was also brilliant - I'd recommend the haggis balls!"
