We stayed for one night - room was clean and spacious. Staff all lovely and helpful. Food for dinner was great, and arrived quickly. Had a couple of drams afterwards - which they had a great range to pick from. Breakfast was similarly great, and the cafetière of coffee was a nice touch at breakfast too. Wouldn't hesitate to return!

Unwelcoming arrival, room was cold and could hear everyone around you in the other rooms. The public bar toilets were very

Stayed here in December.Our room was really big. The bed was nice, the TV big and no problem with parking ;-) (But Tomintoul is really small, so no wonders there.)We had dinner and breakfast there as well. Both awesome.The staff was really nice and helpful too!

We had booked for two nights but only stayed for one. Our king room with it's megre electric heater was frigid, the bathroom with no heater was ice cold. The room was clean and the staff friendly, but the hotel was basic. The food was edible, chips nice, but it was things like soggy hash browns for breakfast and soggy vegetable pakoras on their starter menu made me think they were heated in a microwave rather than an oven. In the wet drizzle the place needed some warmth.Rooms: Clean but cold

A very friendly welcome in this lovely old hotel in Tomintoul. Nice twin room, good shower pressure. Oddly, no towel rail in the bathroom. Excellent venison casserole for dinner. Good selection on the breakfast menu. Kindly made me a sandwich for my lunch on the Speyside Way. Would happily stay again.

On the surface the Richmond Arms Hotel looks dowdy and had seen better days. The reality was a hotel full of character, very helpful staff and a comfortable two day stay. Our original plan was to eat at the hotel for one night and the restaurant across the road for the second, but the hotel food was so good we ate there both nights. The hotel bar was a friendly place, with Tomintoul whisky at just £3.70 a shot.

Good points - staff friendly, food very good. Don?t know how long the owners have been here but there?s great potential. Not so great - the hotel is dated and in need of an update, the chair in our room had a broken seat and it just felt tired. The bar had a row of armchairs in front of it which might be a Scottish thing but seemed odd?

Charming, clean and comfortable. Breakfast was great and the staff were very hospitable. We stayed the night of their Highland Games so the atmosphere was amazing and so much fun.

The hotel was OK but we had a top floor room and there was literally no water pressure. The shower was nothing more than a dribble. Also had to have a wifi booster brought upstairs to pick up a wifi signal. The bar was cosy for an evening drink but overall can?t really recommend.

Stayed here for two nights on our trip to Scotland in the summer.Was a lovely place to stay - great food, service, and location.Tomintoul offered a quieter base compared to some of the nearby towns that are a short drive away.Would highly recommend and hope to be back soon.Many thanks

Authentic friendly pub with very nice accommodation. I'm so glad the standard motels we're all booked out! We would not have stayed in this gem otherwise.

Visited for an evening meal. Really nice place, dated but it adds charm. Really tasty food, I'd recommend the chicken pie (specials menu). All that is needed is a traditional Scottish band playing in the corner.
