We went on a four night stay self drive. Hotel from outside looks lovely as does lounge and receptopn area. We stayed in room 14 which was on the 1st floor, when we reached our room it was cold and not what we expected. We were under the impression that the hotel had been refurbished how wrong were we.

My partner and I have just returned from a 2 night stay in the PITLOCHRY HYDRO HOTEL and I cannot overstate just how much we enjoyed our time there! CHECK-IN This was VERY efficient and friendly and we were made very welcome by Chris who we found out was the General Manager. He explained all the necessary facts and made... more

We stayed at Pitlochry hydro for 2 nights at the beginning of October and found the hotel much better than some of the reviews had suggested. Recently refurbished the hotel had fresh and modern feel to it. The staff were exceptionally helpful and accommodated my friend and I ( and guide dog) very well. Staff went out of their way... more

It has been 4 years since we last stayed at the Hydro and i was pleasantly surprised at the refurbishment in the lounge restaurant bar and reception, it looks great.

The tea/coffee/ biscuits facility was excellent, filled... more

The rooms were clean and spacious (no view at all from our bedrooms though this didn't bother us. the bar and restaurant had been re-furnished and were decorated beautifully. We enjoyed the food and the staff were friendly. The entertainment was... more

My sister and I have just returned from a five day holiday with Shearings at the Pitlochry Hydro hotel. We were under the impression it had recently been refurbished. It had but only partially.
