This once charming and popular rural market town hotel has sadly lost its edge and is now very downmarket despite charming and pleasant staff. The rooms whilst clean are poorly decorated, out dated with uncomforable beds and bathrooms are poor, fixtures are tired and there is mould in corners. Rooms smell old and musty, the entrance smells of frying food... More

The Gordon Arms in Huntly Aberdeenshire was much improved from our previous stay around 15 years ago. We only stayed one night but the accommodation was comfortable and clean. We met friends for dinner and all enjoyed a varied and high quality menu with excellent service. Huntly is a very friendly small town in the heart of Gordon Clan territory... More

I had my wedding at this hotel and I have no complaints at all. Myself, my family and friends stayed here and agreed that the hotel is great. The food is excellent, staff friendly and attentive. The rooms are reasonably priced, clean, traditional and as an all round experience we could not fault the hotel. The owners take great pride... More

I stay here when I'm working in the area, the rooms are good value and the staff are very helpful. It's not a five star establishment but the rooms are O.K. , clean and the showers work. The bar food is pretty good, but the breakfasts are outstanding, served in a dining room overlooking Huntly central square and really well... More

Moved to the area recently and ate here a few times all of which have experienced good food, friendly service and very reasonably priced. Only thing I'd recommend is book in advance as the odd time we couldn't get a table but then again that was a Saturday night.

We were lucky enough to get a room at very short notice after having unknowingly been booked into a grotty hotel along the road, we were part of a wedding party attending a wedding outside Huntly. The staff were very accommodating at short notice and were told they only had a twin room available and it was one of their... More

If you are an American expecting Hilton or Marriott. This is not it. This is a quaint old hotel. The staff was nice. The bathroom was good, clean, and functional, but is not updated. The hotel is right on the square close to the castle, country club, train station, pubs, shops, etc. There is a pub attached to it but... More

Small restaurant but quite cosy, we had roast beef for Sunday lunch and it was very good, melt in the mouth, reasonably priced and service was good and friendly. An extensive menu with tastes from around the world. I would imagine that this hotel could be dated from what we saw but sure this is what gives it a 'Highland'... More
