Summary: I really wish I could give Dalhousie Castle five stars. It is an absolutely beautiful and unique place, and the staff were wonderful throughout our stay. Everyone was incredibly kind and did their best to make us feel welcome. We were treated to a whisky tasting and had flowers and champagne waiting for us in our room, which were lovely touches and made us feel very well looked after. Unfortunately, there were several things beyond that which affected the overall experience. The spa was closed for renovation, the restaurant we had been looking forward to was closed, and the Superior room we had booked and prepaid was unavailable, so we had to stay in a lower category room. The staff handled the situation with kindness and we were promised £200 compensation for the room downgrade. Unfortunately, after returning home I eventually had to go through Hotels.com to receive the promised compensation. The staff really were the highlight of our stay and I cannot say enough good things about how friendly and helpful they were. At the same time, the hotel sometimes felt quite stressed and understaffed, which was a shame because Dalhousie Castle itself has so much charm and potential. Despite the issues, we still have some very fond memories from our stay and would love to return one day when the spa and restaurant are open and experience Dalhousie Castle at its best.

Summary: We had a wonderful night staying in this castle hotel and the fine dining in the dungeon is also highly recommended.
Sarah Sep 16, 2026 08:37:26 PM
Summary: Amazing place, wonderful staff. Don’t eat in the dungeon restaurant unless you are prepared to spend over 3 hours and 120 pounds each sampling very weird and unpalatable food. We had to leave half way through to get my diabetic daughter some actual food. The manager sent a tray to our room. Otherwise a wonderful place to stay.

Summary: Beautiful hotel we stayed in the Lodge large room very nice and very quiet. Breakfast was excellant. The downside for us was the drinks menu wasn,t readily visible and i can ubderstand why having paid £29 for a G&T and a white wine found that extorsionate we have less than that in a 5 star hotel in Italy Other than that great place to stay

Summary: Amazing experience at a castle! Everything we hoped for and more, in regards to the authenticity of the room to the quality of the food and drinks!

Summary: Fairy tale. Came out to celebrate my wife and buddies 40th bdays and it will be one we will not forget. First time visit to Scotland and it was a must to stay in a castle. This is the castle you should choose every time. From the moment you pull on to the grounds and the castle comes into view, to the amazingly different yet stunning rooms, to the once in a lifetime experience of the tasting menu in a 13th century dungeon. Now due to location and Fringe festival it was very difficult getting to and from the property (not by any fault of their own) but they made up for it amazingly by helping get taxi's and transportation set up to and from. The staff especially the main young lady at the front desk are world class and help make it such an enjoyable experience.
