We arrived on a soaking wet Friday to be met by a welcoming smile and a warming fire. Our room was beautiful - lovely views across the town and valley; good size; fine bathroom. The menu was first class. We enjoyed every dish. Cooked in the style of first-class family cooking, each dish is lovingly prepared. The meat was tender... More

Had a great stay here on a cold wet Friday night. The lounge with the big comfortable sofas and roaring fires was a great treat. The staff were very friendly and our room, in contrast to the rest of the hotel was modern and light. Best of both worlds. Dinner exceeded expectations. Would highly recommend

We stayed here as part of a group of girls celebrating a special birthday. Lovely room (we had a free upgrade) with lovely views. The hotel overall is small and intimate-I felt like I was in an Agatha Christie novel! The hotel is spotless-cannot fault the cleanliness at all. Food was lovely-catered for gluten free guest happily and for a... More

Dear Karen B, Thank you very much for your positive review of your recent stay at the Knockendarroch with your friends. I can see what you mean about the Agatha Christie reference as the hotel is an old Victorian Mansion with lots of character...and I think it would make a great Murder Mystery venue!

After a two year gap, we returned to this excellent hotel to find everything as well organised as ever. A lovely room, splendid food and a most helpful and friendy staff who have all been there for a while now. This continuity shows through in the service. Having stayed in several Pitlochry hotels, we would rate this as the best... More

This hotel is chic whilst homely with excellent facilities. The staff are very friendly; attentive whilst not overbearing. Everything is considered including phoning to ascertain if you need collection from the railway station. Overall, the experience was exceptional - I was sharing a twin room with my elderly Mother and we both enjoyed our stay.
