“What a nights sleep :)”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 October 2011

After a 5hour stag and deer spotting trip at Atholl Estate We checked in and passed out for 2and a half hours in the fluffiest, comfiest bed! The room was quirky and very clean. We had dual view windows of the main street and the carpark. Freeview tv as standard -which was good. And the shower was excellent. Breakfast next morning was exquisite, with a good range on offer. All included in the reduced October rate. Loved it!

“very clean and good central location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 October 2011

we stayed here for one night and were pleasantly surprised having not expected much due to it being a "last resort" booking as everywhere else seemed to be booked for the Enchanted Forest. However, the rooms turned out to be spotlessly clean and comfortable and the breakfast in the restuarant was fine- you are asked to give a time between 8 and 9 and a table is reserved. The best thing is the location on the main street right in th centre of the town. Even though there is a pub next door the accomodation was very quiet and we did not hear any noise. Another bonus is that it was relatively inexpensive at £60 per night for 2. Would recomend for a one or two night stay and would probably return

“Clean & good location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 September 2011 via mobile

This guest house is in a good location as it is on the Main street and only couple minutes from train station. McKays pub is next door but we didn't hear any noise and our room faced the front. Rooms are clean and a good size. They are as shown on pictures. Breakfast was great, good choice of hot options and it was cooked well. We had lunch in the restaurant which was just ok. The portions were small and we had better tasting meals in other restaurants. Service was good for breakfast and lunch. This guest house had more rooms than others I have stayed at. I felt it lost the personal touch that you usually get from guest house/B & B owners such as recommending places to visit, eat etc. I would still recommend it though.

“Very traditional B&B”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 September 2011

This is a quaint B&B at the end of the main street in Pitlochry above a fish and chip shop. The rooms were clean and comfortable but the decor was a bit traditional for my taste, with the same pattern on the wall paper, curtains and chairs. Nice enough for a night or two in Pitlochry.

“MacDonald's breakfast was delicious”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 October 2009

The MacDonald's Guest House is centrally located in Pitlochry and we enjoyed walking on the shopping street and checking out the very nice shops. This hotel was spotlessly clean and our room was on the top floor and was en suite and included a kettle and preparations for tea and coffee; which we enjoyed after dinner.
I believe the owner greeted us upon arrival and showed us the hotel. He was polite and gave a good explaination of how to work the locks, and when breakfast was, etc.
We returned fairly early in the evening but after the restaurant had closed, the main entrance being used both for the hotel and the restaurant. During the night the hotel was nice and quiet and although the evening was quite cool we were snug in our room.
Of all the beds in Scotland which I became familiar with over a two week period this mattress must be the absolute worst. Sleep was fitful and no position comfortable and some positions felt dangerous lest a spring fly through the covering and impale the one lying on top. I was further dismayed the next morning as I read over the comment book while having early morning coffee in the room. Many comments, over a significant period of years were aimed at the same, now nearly infamous mattress....it's past time to improve the bed with a new mattress and (hopefully) a box spring underneath.
Breakfast was very good. A nice variety served promptly and efficiently. I wished the waitress would have smiled, even briefly as she was having a busy time of it.
This is a nice place to stay, the rate is reasonable and the facilities will score an 85 out of 100 with me only because of the dodgy matress.
