Forres Dava Way Hotels

"Great location. Paid parking is close. Most of the old building looks refreshed, but some hall carpeting looks tattered. Rooms and bathrooms were spacious. Breakfast buffet was hearty, but the coffee offered was so bad we bought instant in town and made our own at breakfast. Staff are very nice. There is a bar on-site, but we didn't use it."

"Breakfast was very delicious and fresh. Room can use some updating"

"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."

"Great location.Great staff"

"Lovely place comfortable and well kept"

"Great room and service. Staff very friendly and breakfast was great."

"Beautiful exterior and garden area, close to town. Unfortunately the 2nd floor room was hot enough to melt my recently purchased chocolate that was on the desk. Was about 80 to 85 degrees and there is no air-conditioning. The staff brought up a fan after multiple requests which we propped in the window that could only open about 6 inches. Contributing factors may have been the full hotel (and heat rising on a 60 degree day) or the exposed HOT to the touch pipe at the baseboards that went into the radiator (which was turned off). Rough night sleep where we debated sleeping in the lobby or going elsewhere about 10:30 PM."

"Staff were really accommodating and friendly. Food was fabulous both breakfast and dinner. Great location for exploring the area. Room was a great size too."

"The breakfast menu was very good with plenty of choice. The bar carried an extensive list of whisky & gin."
