    They closed the riverside terrace at 5.00pm because they felt that the weather would detract folk from visiting. As it was it there was 20 folk having drinks when it closed.

    Lots of character - we had a room overlooking the Tay. Beautiful view.

    Although comfortable, our bedroom was rather dark and gloomy. A bit gothic!

    Excellent breakfast. Being able to check in late in the evening. Location.

    Smaller rooms than expected. Access to the hotel parking was too narrow for comfort so we parked on the street instead.

    The staff were so welcoming and helpful while we were there. They gave us tips on what to do in town if we weren’t sure where to go. The rooms were clean and neat.

    Nothing found to complain about.

    Evening meal was obtained here at extra charge, the food was wonderful as were the staff. I think drinks were a little pricey but probably on a par for a hotel of this standard. The room was large, facilities excellent and they provided a bed, bowl and welcome pack for our dog who was even made a fuss of, water bowl and carpet mat for him to use while we had evening my eal and breakfast. We were fortunate enough to be able to a spot in the hotels private parking spot so for us that was not an issue. Location great being in the town and close to the river with a wonderful riverside bar and covered seating in area complete with large screen TV. No issues with this hotel, we ended our holiday on a high, thank you.

    Expensive for the value provided. No lift to rooms, which were all on the first and second floors. Rhis made room access difficult for a disbled member of our party.. Head of service in the restaurant only grudgingly agreed to provide a dinner table fo five (all of us staying at the hotel) on the grounds that we had not booked in advance. (Other staff members were fine and very helpful.) No cask conditioned ale in the baar.

    Location by the river Tay in the heart of Dunkeld and terrace by the riversife

    Not everyone on reception was helpful. We weren't asked if we had enjoyed our stay. Our room had steps down to bathroom which was potentially dangerous in the night. Shower wasn't consistent in temperature. Bathroom looked lovely but not that practical. Didn't like the video of the rooms on loop in lounge and restaurant.

    Lovely location by river. Terrace and garden nice. Room very well presented. Breakfast and dinner good. Good service in bar and restaurant.

    Difficult to think of anything really. The plug sockets in our room were too close to the ground which made plugging some items in more difficult than it had to be. We even had to avoid a plug socket entirely as there wasn't enough room for the cable. ...that's about it.

    The location is superb. Dunkeld may be small, but being right in the heart of it provided excellent travel connections and breathtaking scenery. While we didn’t dine there in the evenings, the breakfasts were outstanding. The service was swift, the food delicious, and the ambiance ideal for starting the day right. The highlight of our stay was the staff. From booking to departure, they were consistently pleasant, helpful, and proactive in ensuring our stay was perfect. On multiple occasions, I even saw staff assisting non-residents with directions and advice, showcasing their extraordinary commitment to hospitality. This experience reflects not only the dedication of the staff but also the exceptional culture the hotel has nurtured over the years. The Atholl Arms Hotel and its team are truly the heart of the local community and a standout example of excellent service for visitors.

    This hotel really was a 10/10, except for the fact we got no sleep. Unfortunately we had someone in the room next who we could very clearly hear snoring all night, it kept us awake and actually woke us up at various points too. I appreciate this isn't something the hotel can do much about, but I think it's worth being aware of.

    Absolutely beautiful hotel and in a lovely little town. The hotel has various areas inside and out to relax. The rooms are decorated beautifully.

    Foreigners should be told that the electricity supply for the shower works by pulling a string from the ceiling . I thought it might trigger an alarm.

    Good Basis for travelling in the area, good walks and places of interest near-by , quaint town Center with nice shops.
