Cozy Ambiance

I stayed in a beautiful four-poster king-sized bed that made every night feel special. It was a lovely touch that enhanced our stay and made us feel completely at home.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay as our room came equipped with a large digital TV featuring streaming services. It felt great to unwind and watch my favorite shows directly from bed.

The hotel is right in the town centre with a view of Forres. The rooms are spacious and luxurious, with comfortable four-poster beds. The helpful staff went above and beyond to provide quick and friendly service. However, the dining options were limited, and my gluten-free request was missed. The location is central to where we needed to be, with good access to shops, and directly opposite a late-night taxi rank.

I couldn't have asked for a better stay! The hotel's charming location in the heart of downtown Forres was absolutely delightful, with easy access to shops and right opposite the taxi rank. The service was a mixed bag, from forgetfulness to exceptional friendliness. The dining experience was satisfactory, with fresh fish being a highlight. The value for money was decent, though improvements can be made in some areas.
