3. Cambus o'May Hotel

5.5 km from Ballater Library

"A lovely hotel with delicious food and a beautiful, peaceful setting. You should stay here. We stayed in a little stone cottage separate from the hotel an easy 5-minute walk up the hill. It used to be the dog kennels. In fact, the low stone walls topped with iron fencing that served as the two outside pens of the kennel are still there, as are the doggie doors -- tho’ these are firmly closed. A pair of French doors open onto a very large walled garden, which we had to ourselves. It's the...

We received a very pleasant welcome, and our room was large, beautifully furnished and very quiet. Whilst we stayed for 2 nights, circumstances meant we only had breakfast although on our last evening, we saw that the restaurant was quite...

Top Ballater Library Hotel Reviews

Braemar Youth Hostel

8/10 Good

"Everything was clean and comfortable and well-maintained. The kitchen was well stocked and everything was fairly easy to use. The only minor issue is just how poorly insulated for sound the rooms are: I heard every person walking by all night long, and every time our neighbours unlocked their door, I thought someone was coming in our room. I don’t think it’s anything that can be easily fixed, but it was a small issue that we had to deal with."

Balmoral Arms

10/10 Excellent

"We enjoyed our stay with the rooms being comfortable and in a great location. Parking was not a problem either."

The Boat Inn

8/10 Good

"Lovely and quiet, stay in the chalet if you can, luxury . Food was good and tasty. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Plenty places to sit for food, pub, restaurant or function suit upstairs. Private parking."

Sweet Donside Cabins

10/10 Excellent

"The Sweet Donside Cabins are a little piece of heaven in Scotland, everything we could possible need was provided, we stayed in the Little Love Nest and the way it was decorated was absolutely amazing the added touches of pictures and ornaments was second to none, Lizzie and Brent are amazing hosts. Everything was spotless, the hot tub was ready as soon as we arrived and was such a treat with the lights all around the decking area. Each cabin is very private even though they are next to each other. We will definitely be back!"

Haughton Arms Hotel

8/10 Good

"Staff were very helpful and the breakfast was delicious. Also enjoyed dinner in the evening. Dog friendly, so our dog could have meals with us in the bar lounge."

The Commercial Hotel

10/10 Excellent

Cambus o'May Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed in the Kennels apartment and it was ideal, the most dog friendly accommodation we have come across. The food in the restaurant was delicious, and the staff were lovely. Definitely going to stay again."

Douneside House

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed in one of the offsite casa style rooms which was perfect for our family (we were parents travelling with two teenagers). Room was clean and had all we needed for our two night stay. We appreciated the afternoon scones and tea in the main hotel. We were surprised that our rooms didn’t have any housekeeping between our first and second nights so I’m not sure if that was part of the casa room service or not but our request for addition towels was taken care of quickly!"

Woodland Escape in a Cosy Glamping Cabin

10/10 Excellent

"Very pet friendly, excellent location, loved the wee square, amazing wildlife."
