Arrived at Fishers Hotel in the evening after travelling down through the Cairngorms for one nights stay. Nice location in the centre of Pitlochry. The girl on reception was friendly enough and booked dinner in the hotel for us. Going up to our room - 214 - in the lift, we were immediately struck by the threadbare carpets in the hotel and chipped paintwork almost everywhere. We opened the door to the room which was roomy enough with lovely views to the garden and hills beyond. However, it was the shabbiest room we have ever stayed in. The paintwork was chipped and there were marks on the walls. The bathroom was tiny with cracked tiles on the floor, shower fixture was loose and the toilet wasn't bolted down properly!! . If it hadn't been so late and also the fact that we were only staying one night, we would have refused the room. Dinner in the restaurant was ok with eager staff who were so keen they whipped your plates away while you were still eating the last mouthful! Breakfast next morning was ok-ish, but have had better presented food. I know we had not paid top price for this hotel, but for a 3* you do expect much better. We would not return to this hotel.

“Bit fishy at the fishers......”

Fisher's Hotel

19 Aug 2007
5/5 found this review helpful

Booked on half board basis for 2 nights - internet blurb stated all rooms with showers, welcome pack etc. On arrival the place had an ovewhelming smell of cooked lamb, looked shabby but staff ok. Directed to room 212 (mind carpets on the way, though, they are loose and rumpled). large room, good size, but again,shabby. NO shower - just a small bath with jaccuzzi that DIDNT work. The bathroom floor tiles had no grout and the basin was cracked. good sized bed, tho, which was clean and comfy. Dinner was an experience. The coach parties got preferential treatment - how come us mere mortals dont get to dine in the ballroom, which looked lovely, from what we saw from the doorway! ? the meal came promptly, no complaints about the staff, but the meat was dry and the veg looked like it had been sat under a heat lamp all night. the cheese and biscuits looked like they had suffered the same fate as the cheddar was sweating heavily! breakfast was good, but the self service was for coach parties only - the rest of us got asked what we would like and it was brought to us. no chance of over filing our plates there then! evening meal on following day was equally as dissapointing - we did toy with the idea of joining the huge queue at the chippy up the road, which smelt divine and was doing a roaring trade, but decided to stick with it and the results were no better than the night before. on the whole - a disappointing hotel, which was a pity because the area is lovely and we had a wonderful time. lots to do and see - friendly people - had a lovely lunchtime meal in the indian restaurant up the road..... wouldnt rush back to the Fishers tho......!!!

“Most horrifiic hotel on this planet”

Fisher's Hotel

10 Aug 2007
5/6 found this review helpful

We booked in on August 9 2007, and we were asked to pay before we checked in, we were allocated Room 314, this was the most disgusting room we have ever stayed in. The wallpaper was hanging off the walls, the carpet had a threadbare hole with underlay showing, it was a hovel. we complained to reception and they apologised. Every other place was booked that night so there was no chance of changing. the full breakfast was ample, however, it tasted so awful we couldn`t eat it. the hotel at the back is filthy and I would love to check out the kitchens. When we left there was an envelope on reception and the hotel refunded £19.00 of our £69.00, Every carpet on all floor outside the lifts was threadbare, absolutely the most appauling hotel ever!!!!!! Don`t go!!!!! It`s a hovell!!!!be warned.!!!!

“Discusting hotel”

7/7 found this review helpful

This hotel is one of the worst we have ever stayed at . As soon as we arrived there was a problem the receptoin area was stinking as if something had been spilt and not cleaned up for weeks . The room was really old fashioned and the bathroom wasn't even clean . There was a gap that big under the door I could put my mobile back in the room without even opening the door . I know it was a last minute deal and don't expect to get the best room in the house , but I expect it to be clean . Made the best of it and decided to go down for dinner , the staff were all nice and friendly and tried there best but the food was discusting , my wife and I both had the cheese to finish , it was warm and sweaty as if it had sat out all day . Ther were a number of foreign guests staying , if this is the standard of service we are showing visitors to our country then the tourist industry is doomed . We'll never be back . The fishers hotel isn't much better
