"The Braemar Youth hostel might be the most charming and lovely hostel I’ve stayed at. The location is peaceful and the facility itself is comfortable and cozy. This hostel has a great lounge, large kitchen with all the essential utensils, and the staff are so accommodating and pleasant. "
"Nothing but positive things to say about Sweet Donside Cabins. Cabins and facilities were spotlessly clean, TV beds very spacious and comfortable, with the attention to detail excellent. Hot tubs were clean and well maintained. Lots of extra touches including a welcome basket."
"Just a brilliant long weekend. Check in and check out could not have been easier. Loved our time in the lodge and all the facilities were fantastic. We will absolutely be staying again!"

Excellent
Loved this little town. Everyone was so nice. I even had time to speak with the firefighters at their station. Thursday night is their training night, so it was fun to talk about differences between the fire department I serve with.

Cute little town, good place for a waypoint between Edinburgh and Speyside whiskey trail.

Whilst facilities vary according to season there's always something to do. A true village atmosphere, on your brief walk to the local shop you lose count of how many locals have wished you a good morning. You can't help few good with that sort of att
"Check in was easy you get a code sent for the front and room door, very well equipped with a small kitchen area with a fridge which when travelling with a dog was really useful for the food. Bed lovely and comfy with a small balcony area to sit out and as the weather was so good was perfect. Ample parking with a very short walk into Aviemore, plenty local shops, cafes and pubs/restaurants to choose from

"I was traveling alone through the Cairngorms and chose to stay at The Speyside. What a great choice. I had a lovely suite with a generous living area and a comfortable bed.
I arrived late after a long day of driving and was met with a smile and an offer of a late dinner - and what a great meal it was. A quick drink before and then a deliciously prepared meal with very friendly service.
The morning was much the same - great breakfast and then off on my way. I'd stay here again any time and recommend it highly.
PS... while you are in town, don't miss the terrific little town museum just up the street. It is worth an hour of your time for sure!"
"The property owner, Diane, was warm, welcoming and very friendly. She provided great suggestions for dinner and sightseeing. She ensured that our vegetarian dietary needs were accommodated. The room was very spacious. Overall we had a good experience."
