Birnam Hotel

The facade of the hotel looks amazing, another thing is the inside… where do I start. The location it’s fairly close to everything within a walk distance, considering that both Dunkeld and Birnam are villages that won’t take you more than 10 minutes to see everything. The interesting part is on the nature around it. The room was decent size, but that was about it. The worst mattress in Scotland you can find it hear, not allowing us to sleep for more than 2 hours straight. That combined to the WC’s water sound that would wake up the sleepiest creature in this world, it made the whole stay very unpleasant. The restaurant has the poorest service I’ve ever experienced, and I swear I’m not one to complaint about anything as long as there is food. But this was outrageous, the person who attended us, did it like we owed her our lives, being rude, would haven been the nicest that she could’ve done. And for the money they charge you, you would expect that the food at least would have been well cooked and not raw.. but hey, there is tastes for everyone. The only good thing about this it was the receptionist Praya, who was always with a smile and a good answer for you.

Big rooms, very warm at night, terrible shower.

Disappointing stay Accomodatipn was ok but desperately needs updating to the present day. Bad repair on bathroom door which did not lock,paintwork drab, screw sticking out dangerously on curtain tieback and bare walls all add up to a 1980's throwback. Its a shame as the outside and main lobby are really nice but doesn't make up for the disappointing accomodation. Breakfast was ok but nothing special.
