Just returned from our third trip to Academy Hotel at Aviemore. Have been on two "Santa Breaks" - which are excellent value for money and great fun for kids. Staff always very friendly and helpful, only complaint is quality and cost of food in resort, particularly Giovanni's. Kids buffet is £7.50 per head, with cost of drink £1.50 on top.... more

No one else in our tour had the experience we had so by no means take this as normal. Upon walking in our room we about fell over after being hit by the most horrible smell imaginable. Long story short, there were NO other rooms in our building and our tour guide had to get involved to get us a... more

We were there as a golf party of 16 staying in 8 twin rooms at £110 B&B per night in the Four Seasons party of the resort. The hotel was fine but in my opinion the decor of the rooms, especially the bathrooms was well below what I would expect for that kind of room rate and in general the... more

We stayed over the Easter break. The hotel was rather disappointing as it is just a collection of ugly concrete blocks lacking ambience with unimaginative landscaping. There is lots of parking and the hotel is a great location right on top of the town and within easy reach of Cairngorm - which had snow at the top for skiing/boarding! We... more

Stayed over the easter break, last minuite booking through local tourist board, (helpful). No view as such from window, but far too many people moan, what can they see from their windows at Home!!!! Room was clean - modern and comfy. No problems what so ever, check in quick - polite - attentive. Breakfast first class. Book with confidence. more

If you are the kind or person who finds themselves drawn to the intrigue of German Concentration camps, I think this Hotel might be for you. From the moment you ascend the driveway to the main body of this Colditz style '60s poured Concrete eyesore, you may, like me, feel a 'sinking feeling' within your stomach. Now don't get me... more

We had a weekend break staying in the Four Seasons - reasonable price at £90 Dinner, B&B (breakfast was fantastic) for Hubby & I plus our 2 year old. Location is great as you are right in the centre of Aviemore and local shops, pubs, etc. The staff seemed to be mostly foreign but friendly, helpful and proffessional. I think... more

This resort is huge, several different purpose-built hotels within one resort. It's right in the heart of Aviemore village so location is good, but the resort is souless. The rooms are like any other rooms in a chain hotel - you could be in any hotel, anywhere in the world. They are comfortable, well presented, clean, not overly spacious etc...... more

Stayed at the Aviemore Inn on the Resort for 3 nights in early Feb. We had booked a suite and were not disappointed. When we were walking towards reception with our luggage, a passing member of staff stopped and offered us a lift to the main reception ! The bathroom was a little dated but clean and tidy so no... more

We Stayed in the Acadamy Hotel for Christmas with our 2 children (13 & 8) We found staff very friendly on arrival and throughout our stay. The whole experience was magical with the mulled wine, santa, twinkling lights, carol singing and fantastic surroundings even the bagpipes gave me goosebumps walking from the hotel on the last night. The food was... more
