Lovely position on a Loch
Location was beautiful. Staff friendly and efficient. Room was sadly cramped, basic and expensive compared to other hotels we stayed in this area. No ventilation in the bathroom so mould forming and door stuck. Breakfast was excellent. Evening meal we found expensive and very rich.

Nice Place
Super clean. Staff friendly & helpfull. Lots to eat at breakfast. Nice location. We enjoyed our stay. Issues: Breakfast orange juice was actually orange squash. Management reluctant to put heating on but did after several clients complained of being frozen. Building trembles everytime a train passes by.

The service at breakfast was slow. The evening menu was excellent but the table presentation was to a low standard similar to a cheaper 'bistro' type of venue. (cutlery not set out, no table decorations for example). There was no room service provided, unless requested (in the manner of COVID times). As we were only staying for 2 nights this was not of consequence.

Staff are great and helpful. Our room, on the second floor, was too far away to get internet to make the smart tv function. Our room was quite noisy facing the road and the railway.
Other than those small gripes it’s a lovely friendly place with a good breakfast. The staff did all they could to fix the TV problems.

We booked a small double room which was still a nice size and offered a comfortable stay for our two night break.
We had a lovely breakfast in the morning with friendly and helpful staff.

Quaint B&B with a great restaurant.
A comfortable B&B just a mile or so outside of Aviemore serves a great base for exploring the Cairngorms. The made-to-order breakfasts and the dinners were both outstanding. All the staff were friendly and helpful.

Scenic Rowan
The hotel is located within some outstanding scenery with Loch Alvie literally on your doorstep. We were all made to feel welcome, including Dizzy the dog , and the chefs produced some delicious food as we sat near a blazing log fire.
Room and bathroom were very clean and well appointed.
The only grumble we would have is that we were charged for our dog's stay on a nightly basis, to cover additional cleaning, as opposed to per visit, you would only clean the room once even after 2 nights stay.

The rooms and toilets are quite small, and WiFi is a disaster. Staff, in general, look underprepared. Fortunately, sympathy improved with time. The food was good. It has a public charging point for electric or plug-in hybrid cars.

Eerlijk hotel
Rowan Tree is een klassevol hotel in een erg toeristische streek. Het ontbijt is verzorgd net zoals het avondmaal. De gerechten die 's avonds aangeboden worden zijn eerlijk bij prijs. De bediening verloopt vlot, er was een nieuwe kok waardoor het leek alsof de keuken niet kon volgen. Het hotel is goed gelegen voor een uitstap naar Aviemore en omgeving

Some (likely one-off) issues but not good overall
Nice staff and convenient location. Nice breakfast. Appreciated the fires downstairs in the bar and nook, though the lounge itself was like someone's front room and unused. Comfy beds and decent bathroom. Our main complaint was the doors were freshly painted and the window hadnt been opened so we were breathing in toxic fumes all night - had to sleep with the window open. Did attempt to find someone at 1am but no night manager number on front desk. Restaurant was getting very hot so heating turned off, but this included our rooms! Electric heater was provided on request. Staff seemed to have accidentally set the fire alarm off at midnight (maybe it was the heat downstairs) but they responded quickly which is good to know. Would probably stay again, maybe on an upper floor bigger room though.

Beautiful views
Had a great stay in this charming property, it was full of character, warm and cosy. The bed was very comfortable with a fab view across the lake. Bathroom was modern and the shower powerful. Breakfast was gorgeous, the porridge with cream was delicious. I was so full that I took my french toast with bacon away in a tupperware box and had it for lunch. Wish we had been staying longer, would definitely return.
