Poor quality food. Frozen breaded mushrooms (still tried to charge us for them), main fish dish had been heated in the microwave and to make things worse the white wine was warm. Try to avoid if possible, but I don’t think the other options in Grantown are much better.

As always these past 2-3 years, the booking has been straightforward, the service polite, friendly and efficient, and the restaurant choices good and the food quality represents great value. Thank you one again.

We stopped off here for Sunday lunch and had a wonderful visit. We chose to dine outside in the beer garden as we had a dog with us and the weather was good. The staff were very friendly and attentive (especially Sheila who was very kind to the dog with treats). The food was served quickly, tasted superb and was very reasonably priced (£20 pp for 2 courses). Will definitely be stopping off again next time we are passing through.

Think this hotel has tried hard to “ upgrade” it’s amenities,but is very “ tired” Ground floor room was stifling hot with no AC and ability to open windows to the street. Restaurant food was “ marginal” Bar staff ,however,were very helpful. Grantown on Spey would not make our itinerary on any future visit to Scotland.

This hotel sits in a commanding position, that's it. The hotel carpark is a piece of waste ground. The beer garden is waste ground. The rooms are ok but need to be modernized. My shower was powerful enough but made a hell of a noise. The food was, in my opinion, below average, the hosting staff, apart from the Stoney faced receptionist, are brilliant and very attentive, would I return.....possibly.

Really good lunch. Six of us had Sunday lunch at the Garth and really enjoyed it. There is a new manager, who is great and the food was excellent. A new menu for Sundays, very reasonably priced. We also ate there a couple of weeks ago on a weekday and enjoyed that too. Highly recommend for a good lunch and will be back to visit in the evening soon.

My wife and I booked the Garth hotel having enjoyed the excellent food and real ale last year. What a disappointment. The ale was not very good and the a la carte menu had been replaced by pub food such as burgers, pizzas, breaded chicken/fish etc. Breakfast should have been ok but the cook managed to make my wife's scrambled eggs greasy.......how? My full Scottish breakfast was also greasy and the sausage positively anaemic. In my opinion the hotel has tried to save money by employing a short order cook instead of a trained chef. Now for the twin room. It was small and cluttered but at least the beds were comfortable. The en suite shower was disgusting. There was black mould/mildew in the corners and grout missing from the tiles. Yes, we should have asked for a better room but, well, we're British.…

When we stay with my mothering law for a short break we always go to the garth for a family meal . The menu has been revised . More informal menu but still well cooked and excellent service . The creme brulle is excellent

First impression as we arrived the outside look somewhat tired , even the R of Garth was missing . If you park in the car park round the back its hard to get wheeled luggage to the front reception. Reception was welcoming and bar staff great . Please don’t ask for a Irish or gaillic coffee as this was a disaster . Rooms were good . Big beds and recently refurbished . Our room had a heating boiler under the floor so make sure you don’t get that one . Luckily the noise ceased after 10pm !
