My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The location was excellent, offering a real feeling of space and seclusion, right beside the gracefully dark River Tay. However, the dining could have been better despite the lovely food, and finding myself in the annex far from the main hotel was not ideal, especially for someone with disabilities.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms didn't quite match the description; they were beautiful but facing the marquee used for events. On a high note, the staff sweetly acknowledged my husband's birthday. However, the room was overheated without proper cooling options, aside from opening a window.
