    The room was a little worn. Scuffs in the bathroom. £31 for 2 gins!!! The blind on the lodge door didn't give much privacy as it had a gap between window and blind, meaning you could see into the room. I think this could be an easy fix. Honestly, it was a very pleasant stay!

    Spa (except we weren't told the closing time, so we got caught short), amazing staff who were so kind, helpful and welcoming, great amenities (Noble Isle is a favourite), yummy breakfast- infact one of the best I've had, especially the porridge!!) And fantastic views.

    The beautiful building is covered in scaffolding as they have issues with the flat roofs on the new buildings. Building materials everywhere. Restrics views from room and outdoor section of spa. Scottish licence laws sign in room, obviously people have been bringing their own drink but not everyone does this we thought this took away from the experience. The person on reception mentioned how I booked in a negative way I would of booked direct if they price matched.

    Location amazing, walk into pitlochry beautiful, staff polite, tour of hotel on way to room and a bit of history about the building. Breakfast was fantastic. Tip to walk into pitlochry. Room 104 not much view but beautiful room.

    Hard to access outlets for charging, had to unplug things for the room. WiFi was ok but could be better. Also the room was warm even with heat off, so we had to open the balcony door.

    Breakfast was delivered to room per our request and was beautifully setup and delivered. Property is gorgeous but it was difficult to get to location (mainly due to weather). The staff/ people at the site were wonderful, friendly and helpful!

    Absolutely nothing.

    From the minute you walk into reception it is an out of this world experience. Mike greeted us, gave us a tour of the property and shared some history of the castle. The staff were all friendly and couldn't do enough for us. They all made us feel welcome. Big shout out to Mike and Davie who always greeted us with a smile and a cheery story. The facilities were more than you can ask for, the outdoor pool/hot tub is a must try even in bad weather. The views in the restaurant and lounge were breathtaking. I had a hot stone massage, Elma was fantastic making sure I had a great experience. We had dinner in the restaurant. It was outstanding, one of the best dining experiences I have ever had. The breakfast was lovely and nothing was too much bother. Everything about our stay was 5*

    Although the breakfast was mostly lovely and the service for food was excellent, the cooked breakfast had some small downfalls. The Scottish pancakes were excellent.

    The service at Fonab was exceptional, the care the staff take to ensure you are comfortable is amazing. The room was comfortable and lovely.
