Elgin Burghead Visitor Centre Hotels

"Our family spent three nights in two suites at the outstanding Station Hotel. Excellence in four categories: Location: Rothes is a quiet town, very close to many distilleries, the Cairngorms mountains, and to Elgin and Aberlour. Facilities: The suites were luxurious, the bistro very comfortable for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and the whisky bar a very special place. Service/staff: The staff provide outstanding service. As with any hotel, small mistakes happen. The great hotels cover for those mistakes with grace and charm. That is true of the staff at the Station Hotel. Really outstanding, world-class staff: Carys Aspinall made our visit memorable before we even arrived. Contacted prior to our visit because I was having difficulty finding distilleries with openings for tours and tastings, she took the initiative to locate three places, sent me the information on their open time slots, and gave life to our ultimately very successful search. Those places she identified became the backbone of our touring (encouraged by the thoughtful notes she wrote about each one in a follow-up email). Once we arrived, Carys continued to provide the kind of service one dreams about: professional and efficient while also warm and welcoming. At reception, in the bistro, and in the whisky bar, we were helped by her repeatedly and in each case, felt a little bit like we had a very knowledgeable, local friend looking out for us."

"Lovely place comfortable and well kept"

"Best place to stay in Elgin"

"Breakfast was lovely and the waitress was amazing!"

"I stayed here last week & this week 5 nights in total. Everything in general was very good indeed, but last week the oven trays were dirty. Just a small issue. Overall I was more than happy with the apartments & would stay again."

"Love the bar area, the staff was great, but food at the restaurant not so good, the restaurant next store is much better. I wouldn't stay here again because of the bathroom, was way too small, I'm short and kept hitting myself trying to shower, there is no place to put shampoo or shower gel, anything you need to shower, you have to put them on the floor, reaching out with such a small space, was definitely a challenge. Loved the water view. Room very small."

"Very nice historic hotel. Close to the train station and town center so we were able to walk around and did not need a car. There was a good-sized car park. "

"Stayed here for 2 nights as a birthday weekend for my hubby, thankfully had a weekend full of plans and didn't need to spend to much time in the room. Bathroom disgusting, skirting boards full of dust, underneath the sink dirty, (as you could see it whilst sitting on the toilet), shower door didn't close, you think it was going to fall off, rather dangerous if you ask me. There's a gap in the balcony doors, so constant draft through them, that's why the radiators are on full blast. Next person that goes in might find what I found in the bedroom floor, if you look for it, don't know how long it's been there. Hard bed and pillows, I've come home needing to book a massage."

"Location was good. Check in process was easy. The beds were comfortable. I don’t prefer to degrade but I also want to be honest though. The room was falling apart. There is obvious water damage. Drywall was falling off walls and ceilings. Several old patches. There was mold on the bathroom ceiling. The bed and bathroom were mostly clean, but the carpet was full of hair and probably hadn’t been cleaned in a while. There were several spider webs on the walls and stains on part of the comforters. Overall the place has got potential, but needs more attention to detail and overall maintenance. So, I’d only recommend it, depending what you’re paying for it."
