The impressive Duke of Gordon Hotel, situated at the west end of the tranquil village of Kingussie provided an excellent base for touring the Badenoch and Strathspey area. Our refurbished bedroom was well appointed, the free WiFi was superb and evening entertainment was an added bonus. The staff were very helpful and evening and buffet breakfast meals were excellent, all in all very good value for money.

Nothing, all good

Breakfast was ample. The hotel is quite spacious. Entertainment in the ballroom at night. Fellow playing and singing with his guitar. Friendly staff. Lots of free parking available behind the hotel. The bar in the basement is very nice. We had a good time. Most guests seem to have arrived on tour buses but the hotel is spacious enough to not feel crowded in the least bit. Our room was quite large.

Unfortunately, the hotel is ageing quite a bit. It could really be something if renovated. Especially the bathroom was just about holding things together.

Bedroom was lovely, recently refurbished. Very clean and serviced daily. All the staff were very pleasant and helpful. Location of hotel was perfect for sight seeing and trips on the train and buses.

Disappointed with the breakfast choices. Very limited in the continental and cooked options. Ran out of some of the hot choices on 3 of days we were there. Quality of the food wasn't great either, the bread was basic and tasteless. Staff did their best but seemed to be understaffed for the amount of people to cater for.

Great hotel In the heart of the highlands, used for a hillwalking trip and sightseeing.

This was a fine example of Scottish hospitality, wonderful location and friendly staff. Up and away early so missed breakfast which was unfortunate. The following day there was a fire alarm so can't really comment! However the restaurant and bar food and service was excellent ! Good selection of everything local!

Breakfast was lovely - lots of options to chose from and the hot food was a good temperature. What we enjoyed most was the friendliness of the hotel staff. The guys running the bar and the reception staff were very engaging. We obviously weren't part of the large coach trip, but that didn't matter, we were well looked after

Only being a little picky, but the area directly outside the hotel could be tidied and cleaned up a little. There were lots of cigarette butts outside the foyer and the area just looked a little tired. The inside of the hotel was very clean and tidy and well looked after

Staff were excellent. All seem to work a lot of shifts and have to deal with numerous coach parties which can’t be easy. Large car park at rear which was tarmac, making it ideal for our motorcycles. Great base for exploring the highlands and the Cairngorms

Bar was a little limited on some drinks we liked. Room was only serviced on the last 2 days of the holiday. Bread used for toast was very thin sliced and seemed cheap. Heard quite a few complaining about this.

Very Happy that the reception managed to get us a room on the second floor as that was where the lift stopped, we weren't told the lift didn't go any further than the second floor when we booked.

There wasn't enough choice if you weren't eating in the dinning room, didn't get the menu till 6.30pm we had to wait till after 7pm before we got served, in the morning no bowls for cereal etc, serving breakfast could have been better with extra help when busy.

Staff were friendly and accommodating. Breakfast was lovely, with plenty of options. The food served in the bar and restaurant was delicious and beautifully presented. Our room was comfortable and had everything we needed. Very clean and tidy. The bar staff were an absolute credit to the hotel. Made us feel at home and kept us entertained. Very knowledgeable about the local whiskies and gins and helped us with our choices of drinks. Special thanks to Pete for being awesome and for persuading us to try Haggis and special thanks to Jacob for persuading us to try the Chinese take-away! What a wonderful hotel! We wish we could’ve stayed longer.

Going up the stairs to our room!

The hotel is located in small village in Highlands and is perfect location to sleepover for a night or two. It has nice view and the look of hotel brings to you real Scottish spirit. It is clean and comfortable and also has private parking. The staff is super nice and they will help you with anything.

The breakfast didn’t have many options to choose from, but it was delicious-Scottish breakfast. Also this village is so small and doesn’t have much to do.

We looked for a trip break but couldn't find one with reasonable price on that day. Only Duke of Gordon has it.

Our room has weird layouts with the sockets in odd places. We had to plug the water cooker on the floor. The way to our building is through a hall. So when there's an event in the hall, we passed by awkwardly. The bathroom is nice but doesn't have hooks/hangers.
