A classic olde worlde highland hotel in a stunning location. Tartan carpets, log fires and good food. Our room was fresh and comfortable. Some of our friends were less fortunate...cramped and a bit foosty. Definitely worth a visit though.Food & drinks: Good atmosphere in the bar. Had food envy with the dishes arriving around us. Breakfast in the hall was great food and great service.wished I'd worn a thicker top though despite the roaring log fire 20 feet away

Stayed at the Atholl Arms last weekend for 3 nights. Traditional Scottish hotel which is warm and welcoming. Food was excellent and staff were very friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend.

Food & drinks: Stopped off for a wee coffee and scone and they had the wood fire burning. Great service, fantastic value and I could've stayed beside that fire all day.

Stopped by here for lunch as we know the food is good, the dogs are welcome and the service is friendly. Plenty space for big dogs (3 golden retrievers).Would definitely recommend, wide range on the menu. We had selection of dishes, Cullen skink, sandwiches, salad and fries. Looking forward to returning on next trip in a couple of months.

Charming, atmospheric hotel that's not seen a refurb in half a century but I loved it. It's like a cool dream about an old hotel. The mattress is terrible, the water pressure from the electric shower is low, the electric wall-mounter heaters smack of 1970s council house but see past it.The dining room is spectacular, the roaring fires are a thing of beauty and the breakfast is excellent. I'm giving 5 stars because it's enchanting and memorable in a way that few hotels are.

I ordered the steak and ale pie. Probably one of the worst I?ve ever had. Meat was dry and tasteless and potatoes were tasteless as well. Pastry was also dry and horrible. Don?t go here. Avoid at all cost. At 16.95 you really expect a lot more. I?m not angry. I?m just disappointed :(

Bit of a disappointing experience last night. We waited over an hour for food and then when it was brought out some of it didn't arrive, server advised onion rings would be brought out shortly but didn't arrive - no one about to ask and was starving by this point so we just ate. Brought it up when they brought the bill and asked if things were okay. Excuse was oh sorry we're a bit flustered tonight. No reduction on bill for missing item which we paid for and should have received. With my parents who paid the bill so didn't want to ruin their night complaining further but was very disappointing. If people pay for a part of the meal they should receive it or it should be discounted if they can't provide what is advertised.

Turned up 1pm for family birthday(84th) at 1 pm along with 10 year old and young stroke victim, along with 3 other adults( booked 4 rooms). Met by Jennefer in reception. ? your not checked in till 3? was bellowed!! Explained we had arrived by train, didn?t need to check in, was just looking for somewhere to put luggage and to pay our bill. With much puffing and attitude, Jennefer pranced behind counter(10 year old already crying) and pretended to help. When tall receptionist lady arrived, Jennefer changed. We were told, we were on second and third floor. This wasn?t feasible, as 84 year old is very restricted in movement, and we had booked a ground floor for him. Made out to be liars, as we didn?t arrange a ground floor??!! Eventually was given a first floor room for old gentleman. ?Luggage can be put in there? says Jennefer in a caring fashion!!!! Stroke victim was beginning to feel very uneasy!! Decided to get some lunch and was direct around the outside of the building to the bar eating area( couldn?t go through building as wedding party celebrating). Lovely day, so 6 of us sat outside on seats at benches, in order to get away from the reception situation. Tried to order food. ?It?s too slippy outside?. Discussed the situation. ?Can?t serve outside till after 3?. Discussed situation. ?We can feed the old man outside, but the rest of you need to sit inside?. Discussed the situation. ?We will serve you sides outside but not main courses?. Discussed the situation. We decided to eat inside and leave the old fellow outside with a member of the family. ?You can?t sit there, it?s against the law? directed at the 10 year old!! 10 year old?s mother now crying. Stroke victim inconsolable!!! Discussions between members of staff and Mother resulted in the family deciding it was impossible to stay in this environment. So full family, and vulnerable people on birthday trip now seeking somewhere to stay and eat. Told Jennefer we couldn?t stay and were leaving(even before we had stayed or had eaten. This was met with a !!heartfelt!, sorry you are leaving from Jennefer! The next 3 hours were horrendous. ADVICE, avoid this place, unless you catch the staff on a good day. Shame we didn?t get to sample the hotel/food, but it was made impossible. If they had told us they were sooo short staffed and under pressure, we would have understood( being in the trade) and could possibly have helped!! Disgusting people from top to bottom. Should be ashamed of themselves. Please don?t reply to this review with your usual obnoxious retorts.

It's just a lovely experience off the A9. Amazing food, we had a huge lunch in the Bothy bar. Hope to stay here one day.

Popped into the Atholl Arms for lunch after a morning exploring the local area. Food was good with friendly service, plus my beer was nice and cold on a warm highland day. Worth the stop.

Popped in today for late lunch whilst staying in caravan site over the road. Husband had ?mince and tatties? he rated it 15 out of 10?.. WOW I had macaroni cheese, there is no way this is out of a tin (as previously posted on a TA review, rude!), it was rich and creamy and loved everything, service and staff excellent. Would fully recommend xx

We didn?t stay in the hotel but had a few nice glasses of wine and good pints of Guinness in the lovely beer garden with our dog. The bar staff in the Bothy bar were friendly and the food was reasonably priced ( I thoroughly enjoyed the steak pie! ?)
