Great atmosphere at The Taybank. The room and bathroom were quirky, boutique style. Loved the hamper, picnic style breakfast, full of lovely goodies. Coffee in the room was excellent.

We stayed here for a Landrover Experience day in Butterstone, which was just a few miles up the road.
It was 50 years since my last visit to Birnam...when i was Youth Hosteling as a 15 year old.
We ate our evening meal in the Inn right next door to the Hotel.
Next time we'd like to stay a bit longer.

Beautiful historical town.
Beautiful historical town. It is very quaint, but it is still so pleasant to walk around. There are a few small shops, bakeries, and restaurants with great food. Everyone there was so friendly. There are a few pubs with affordable prices and great atmospheres. A train station is close by so it is easy to get to bigger towns and cities as well. The town is extremely safe, even at night. I never felt uncomfortable walking around.

Scenery outstanding; village charming.
Scenery outstanding; village charming. The only downside was the lack of pubs/restaurants, as this was over the Xmas period; consequently, on Xmas Eve we booked an over-priced [and not very good] meal at the Tay Bank Hotel -o.k. for a seat if having a meal upstairs [no signs or directions, but a local told us] but small bar downstairs dangerously over-packed with people [getting near the bar to order drinks impossible]. Apart from this local monopoly, Dunkeld is a great place, especially for The Great Outdoors. A walk up nearby Birnam Hill gives wonderful views of the rich surrounding countryside and its cute villages.

Rooms and public spaces were excellent.
Rooms and public spaces were excellent. When we checked in we were told swimming pool closed, this was one of the main reasons we stayed. When I complained to Kenny the duty manager he told me everyone was advised when it was reopened. I told him we were not advised. He insisted we were and walked away. The rest of the staff excellent. Drinks way to expensive £46 for a £12 bottle of wine, £15.50 for a 250 ml glass of sauvingnon

Our stay was relaxing and we liked going on the various walks that were various options. We especially liked the walk along the river past Macbeth’s tree. The Cathedral is well worth a visit and the trees are part of the history too.
Absolutely outstanding - the room is so lovely and open plan, with the bedroom area annexed off. The kitchen is perfect with even things like tinfoil, kitchen roll, oil, and salt. So many lovely thoughtful touches, such as milk in fridge, ice in freezer, dishwasher tablets, washing up liquid, shower gel, that just made this the most heart warming places. Location is amazing and so many walks nearby and places not too far to get food and drinks. Thoroughly recommend and will definitely be back.
Customer Service was fabulous. Amy and the team did everything they could to make our stay a pleasant one. The room and bathroom were spotless enhanced cleaning throughout the hotel was evident with touch points being done at regular intervals.
Check in and out was seamless.
Special mention to the chef, we had dinner in the Hotel and it was really special. Scallops and Mussels were amazing and we would highly recommend.
We will definitely be back to the Royal Dunkeld Hotel.
Amazing apartment, beautifully presented and very stylish. Bedding, towels etc all of good quality and there was everything you could possibly have needed to make your stay enjoyable. Situated in the centre of Dunkeld, lots of lovely shops and great places to eat. We were attending a wedding on the Murthly Estate which was just 15 minutes away and there was plenty of room for us all to get ready in comfort. Suited us better than staying in a hotel.
Excellent B& B, the host, Trevor couldn't do enough. Spotlessly clean room, great breakfast. Great location 10 min walk from centre, via the main road or by the riverside path passing the 500 year old Birnam Oak. If you are going to Dunkeld and Birnam, this is the place to stay. If you plan to eat in one of the hotels/restarants, I would suggest booking in advance as most places were very busy, we ate in the Perth Arms, food was excellent.
Fab little hotel with history. If you don’t like creaky floorboards this is not the hotel for you. We were two adults two children and had a very comfortable stay in two separate rooms . Compact rooms but well equipped. Ensuite showers were a little dated but clean. The breakfast was lovely but due to staffing issues a little slow but due to post covid this applies to most businesses. Nice little hotel worth a stay for location alone.
Just across the street from the Beatrix Potter Garden and just a five-minute walk from the Dunkeld and Birnam train station, this charming hotel had spacious, comfortable, and adorably-decorated Peter Rabbit themed suites. I almost died of cuteness! The hostess was delightful, welcoming, and filled with excellent advice about the area. Strongly recommend; if I ever come back to this area I will definitely stay here.
We would love to return to this gorgeous apt. All the Charles Rennie Mackintosh touches were lovely. Plenty of space - the smaller bedroom was great for an extra guest. Very handy location opposite the Birnam Arts Centre and about 15 min stroll into Dunkeld. Delicious pizzas at Birnam Inn. A really enjoyable stay.
The rooms were clean, very comfortable, and the staff was amazing. They went over and beyond to help make our stay enjoyable. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting Dunkeld. i wished had more time to spend there and have chat with people were already staying in.
Theresa was an exceptional host - very friendly and accommodating. The breakfast she served was the best breakfast we had in all of Scotland. She sets a classy table and the food was fresh and delicious. Our room was very clean.
Beautiful location in Dunkeld which has a beautiful river,lovely forest walks and a great mix of independent shops, cafes and bakeries. Hotel is beautifully and quirkily decorated in an ideal spot overlooking the river.
What an adorable private cottage. Not far from the town of Dunkeld, but a nice remote feeling. Easy access to
tour Scotland. House as well kept and had a great facilities.
The property location was excellent, just a short walk into Dunkeld, and within a short drive of the Newtyle beat on the Tay. Very clean and very well fitted out.
Didn’t have breakfast there, as the charming town of Dunkeld a short walk, with so much choice.
Charming old hotel, set in beautiful surrounds, very pretty area.
