Craiglynne Hotel, hotel in Tomintoul

Situated in its own grounds, a short walk from the town centre, the Craiglynne Hotel offers a warm, friendly atmosphere with open fires in both the lounge and bar.

We paid for the room, dinner and breakfast. We booked a garden view room, the garden is out the front and we had a big red van and motor cycles parked in front of the window so we asked for another room, which was granted. The accommodation could do with a upgrade. The dinner was the worst food served to us in 8 weeks off travel. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone.

The Speyside Hotel and Restaurant, hotel in Tomintoul

I liked that you could choose what you required for breakfast. It is a more efficient system. The breakfast itself was excellent. I attended a Whisky Festival dinner and the food was superb. A lot of time and effort had been put in by the hotel management the chef and the distillery staff.

    An absolutely great place to get away from the monotony of everyday life The countryside around provides plenty of peaceful walks, skiing is also available at the nearby Lecht Ski Centre, who manage to provide skiing even when there is very little snow about ! The Richmond Arms Hotel is the place to stay. Provides a great base with fantastic ownership, service, food and drink.

    Even at the height of summer, be prepared with your layered wind and waterproofs. As long as you have the correct clothing, the fine views to the Cairngorms and village walks can be enjoyed fully. There is plenty of bird life to view. The gift shop and clock restaurant are well appointed and worth patronising.

    Friendly village.

    Friendly village. Lovely cafes and a wonderful gift shop Spendrift. I did some Christmas shopping there and it was only May!. Best bacon rolls ever at the cafe across the main road from the house. We ate out at the Richmond hotel which is dog friendly and we also had an excellent fish supper from a van which comes on a Tuesday late afternoon. There are lots of lovely walks around the village itself as well as others in the surrounding area which is beautiful . Ideal spot for a relaxing holiday.

    Perfect location if you are wanting to explore the snow roads and the north east of scotland. We only stayed overnight so can't tell you a lot about the town but it was very pretty and in an excellent location.

    Richmond Hotel also did excellent food. Sadly The Clock Restaurant across the road is not currently open due to Covid restrictions. Having been to Tomintoul three times previously I can highly recommend the available accommodation and the location in general.

    We were a group of 4 families and had the best time at the hostel. The communal kitchen/living space was perfect for entertaining all ages. There was also a brilliant garden space too. Tomintoul is a great wee town and has everything you need for a Highland adventure. Great pub, restaurant, a well stocked post office, gift shop, visitor centre and some lovely walks to explore the local area. We were delighted to help some local travellers by drying their clothes in the drying room. was lovely to hear about their adventures too.

    B&B work in progress but having said that, the house is an eclectic collection of the life and experiences of the very warm and friendly owners. The breakfast was hearty and filling, showcasing food from the surrounding towns. Location wise, it’s right in the middle of town behind Hotel Square. (It was once the tavern of a hotel at the same site)

    Historic inn in the highest village of Scotland. Lovely location, large room. Excellent dinner and breakfast! Martin (innkeeper) was friendly and the place was comfortable and cozy. Inn is on the square in Tomintoul but it is a quiet and peaceful village. Kept windows open the entire night and had no noise.

    We received such a warm welcome from the very friendly staff at the Richmond, and the room was very comfortable and clean. A highlight was the shower, which was just as hot and powerful as you'd want after a long day's walk. We would certainly recommend the Richmond for anyone passing through Tomintoul.

    The house is very well located, very close to the central square of Tomintoul, with its hotels, brilliant restaurant (the Clockhouse), village store and tourist office. Our family of eight found the house very spacious and comfortable. We also enjoyed the nearby scenic walks on the Glenlivet Estate.

    A lovely warm welcome at this cosy hotel. I was up to run The Dramathon. Staff were so friendly, accomodating and helpful, provided me with a packed lunch and even left bath salts in my bathroom on my return from the run. Cosy log fire in the dining room. Meals delicious.

    The value for money is brilliant, that's a fact. The staff was helpful and friendly. The pub/restaurant connected to the hotel is quaint, with a nice little terrace, a pool table and a well stocked bar. Great for relaxing after a long day.
