this hotel looks very grand from the outside and in the lobby,

the staff are friendly, and helpfull.

but breakfast is a help yourself affair which really did detract from the rest of the experience.

overall this is an OK hotel but as i found out after there are better for cheaper not too far away

my only other issue is that the rooms do look dated, the bathrooms have been updated and would say that everything was clean, but dated.

This hotel is well situated, right in the town centre.

The reception was not great and the room fairly poor for this kind of hotel. Not very clean, old and a bit dirty.

Average breakfast also.

Not great experience

This hotel has to go on your list of places to stay when in Scotland!!...A very beautiful staircase greets you as you enter the door....The staff takes great care of your every wish..You can have a casual cup of tea while sitting in the beautiful lobby in comfy arm chairs, or enjoy a meal, in their restaurant--breakfast is spectacular in their large dining room..Great location, and great rooms. The central location makes it fun to browse the lovely town..We will definitely return to this fabulous hotel, on our next trip!!

We had a very nice stay at Royal Highland, unlike others who commented previously.. If I would have considered those comments stayed else where,, would have missed such character hotel in city centre...
lovely hotel, nice room and very nice bathroom, good food and service and above all the great breakfast buffet with such excellent choice...
overall a very good experience
