It is a lovely little Highland Hotel,very traditional and quaint,with 18 rooms,bar,cosy... More

Just back from another amazing weekend in Speyside. Staff from this hotel are excellent and will bend over backwards for you! Would recommend the restaurant and the breakfast is full Scottish suited to your requirements. Rooms are clean and all round excellent!

You have to like tartan to stay at the Garth...a liking for malt whiskey and excellent food helps too. There's a lot to like about this small hotel and very few 'buts'....overall we had a great time just before New Year - the staff were all friendly and helpful, its in a great location for exploring and as a hotel/restaurant,...

The rooms small but clean and well appointed. Our party booked in on a dinner bed and breakfast deal for two nights. We do this on a annual basis at this hotel however this is the first year that any price increase did not reflect quality. The dinner was often cool and very poor quality. I would recommend that if... More

The experience was mixed in terms of service. The hotel is generally clean and more than acceptable to stay at. It does require some reinvestment in some of the rooms and facilities. The staff were generally good, however, there is a need to ensure that they are all on script to cater for the clients. They were not good at... More

My significant other and I have been visiting the Garth for several years and we visit it at least couple of times most years, usually at quieter times. Late autumn and and mid winter are particularly good times for this part of Speyside. The hotel is, like me,little bit old fashioned although I would prefer to say traditional. The standards... More

The food was cooked and presented perfectly which is no simple task for 70 guests and a great compliment to the kitchen team. The staff were absolutely exemplary and delivered fantastic... More

My partner and I have been twice to this restaurant in the Garth Hotel,this month. The hotel is a rather lovely looking country house set along the main street of Grantown and it wonderfully spic and span with clean loos. We sat at a window table overlooking the side garden and the waitress welcomed us to our seats and quickly... More
