Arrived at around 6 on Friday night, the drive up went ok although I'm sure the satnav screwed us as per usual. Annoyingly the onsite parking at the hotel was full, both front and back, after circling the place like parking space eating vultures we gave up and parked at a free car park along the road behind the Co-op. It didn't look all that secure but we had no problems, other than a wee walk to the hotel, which probably was similar in length to the walk to the back car park. The hotel is quite big and has lots of rooms on different levels even on the same floor. Potential difficulty for older people with heavy bags I suppose. The hotel was nice, not dated, but not new, the room was nice and clean if a little small, though it did have a fairly large T.V. The spa part lied and said it had a steam room, which it didn't but it did have a sauna. Some of the signs were misleading, like the one to the pool which we couldn't actually access, instead you had to go through the bar and then the ballroom. We breakfasted here twice and had dinner once. The food was good but the service was a little slow on two out the three occasions. All this moaning, then why a 4 star review I hear you ask? Simple, the staff, they were absolutely great really accommodating, helpful, friendly and cheerful, they really helped to make this a good experience. We also booked hot stone massages at late notice which and they were as accommodating as they could be in this respect. If I was up this way I would be happy to come here again, however, had the staff not been so great then it was probably more of a 3 star kinda place.
Ericht Lodges

A lovely complex of 6 lodges (all sleeping up to 6 people with 4 in 2 bedrooms and a foldout sofa…read morebed) which is dog friendly and set in a beautiful location by the Ericht River. Blairgowrie is a lovely place and this is an awesome place to stay. Just a 10 minute walk to the town centre and the great pubs on offer, you feel very remote but with the bonus of having great amenities such a short walk away. There's also a big Coop and Tesco if you forget anything. Lodges are all self catering with extensive facilities. Owners are very friendly and will help you out if you want to go on a nice walk or see some lovely scenery. The only downside is there's no wifi available in the lodges. If they had this it would be awesome as mobile coverage is patchy.

It's a boutique hotel which I imagine is great to stay in. They also keep pretty busy serving breakfast, lunch and dinner to Dundonians. It's a beautiful example of the Scottish baronial style with a sympathetic update by the current owners. The ceilings inside are stunning, with roses all around the edges. I would love to wake up to that! The gardens are small but very attractive and quiet as the house is set back from the main road down a posh drive (with a groundsman raking the gravel at the end!). The outdoor seating looked lovely but too sunny for my ginger tinted sister-in-law. I had Eggs Benedict which was really tasty and I enjoyed every mouthful. It came in at a reasonable £5.50. My sister-in-law had a pain au chocolat with a white coffee, both of which she enjoyed. The lunch and dinner menus also looked very tempting. I liked the local suppliers map on the front. The dining room is decorated charmingly with floating teapots, an old set of scales for the tips and cute wallpaper with trees. The only thing I didn't love was 2 carefully distressed wooden boards with twee statements about hearts and home, I don't get why these are so popular right now! The service was very friendly and welcoming. Payment is at the door of the dining room, for brunch anyway. There's a drawing room with a bar across the way but sadly it was too early to sample from the Scottish gin menu. There's another rustic looking gin bar outside too which I'm sure would be lovely in the evening. In fact this would be the perfect place for a small wedding and I think I saw a small wedding bower outside, it was laid on the grass though. Another thing I liked was the vegetable vending machine outside with strawberries for £2 and a dozen eggs for £1.10. Potatoes and greens also spotted. I've never seen one of these before so I was intrigued. Anyway I loved it. I'll go back everytime I'm in Dundee hopefully.

Just a 5 minute walk from the Overgate and Wellgate shopping centres and 10 minutes from the RSS Discovery, it's a great location for both shopping and being a tourist in Dundee. Due to the central location, it doesn't have its own hotel car park but it's connected to level 3 of the Gellatly Street multi-storey by a footbridge from reception which offers parking at £8 for 24 hours. Our room was nice. Modern and clean, which is all you really need from a hotel room. I was slightly disappointed with the view - a brick wall and the footbridge to the car park - but I suppose not everyone can get the stunning view over the Tay. Breakfast was actually quite good, considering it's a buffet in a budget hotel. A full English is available, as well as a continental breakfast. The orange juice was a bit disappointing and watery though. We also ate in the restaurant for dinner. We waited over 45 minutes for our dinner to arrive and the restaurant was empty, but it was actually really nice. I opted for the cod and wedges which were pretty good, considering it's a hotel bar. If we're in Dundee again, I would definitely consider this hotel again. Great location and nice rooms.

It had a good sized bathroom with a well-powered shower. The work desk was excellent, with USB sockets for charging technology, plus a flat-screen TV and nice views over Dundee. The staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfast buffet consisted of some hot items (sausage, baked beans and scrambled eggs) plus continental items and a good variety of hot drinks. The Wi-Fi in the hotel was free, but a little hit and miss. I resorted to using 4G instead -- I'm with EE and there was a good signal throughout the hotel. Overall, for the price this was a bargain and I'd definitely stay here again!

As I drove up the beautifully manicured drive to Eden Mansion Hotel, I just had that feeling that this was going to be somewhere special... The welcome was warm, the interiors were sumptuous, and the service was second to none. I had afternoon tea at Eden Mansion. This beautiful house really does offer the perfect setting for afternoon tea. The cake stands adorned with delicate sandwiches, scones, cakes, and other treats looked beautiful and tasted delicious. The stars of the afternoon tea selection for me were the Guardbridge plum fool and the ginger cake with wild brambles. Eden Mansion is simply stunning, and would make the most beautiful wedding venue. In a world where my other half and I actually get an opportunity for a child-free night or two, this would most definitely be on my list of locations for a romantic break.

The room was well made and had a good mini bar and snacks. There is also a decent menu for room service if you don't want to venture down to the brasserie.

The bar staff and mixologists were blinking brilliant and I had one too many in the end, as they were just so yummy, and willing to try various and random changes to come up with variants of classic favourites. The bed was lush and a really good size. I would 100% stay here again. The only reason not 5* is due to some decor issues in the room, but was very nearly a 5!

The food was very good and the service, although a little slow, was impeccable. The beautiful restaurant is like a room in a stately home with artistically painted wall panels. There are some other sitting rooms and a nice bar with a real fire. Incidentally, the bar is open 24 hours for residents at the time of writing. Unfortunately, the accomodation was disappointing to say the least. On arrival, we found that we would not be staying in the Country House building, but instead, in the "Sportsman's Lodge". Okay, we thought, ' still sounds good. However, when we drove a minute or two down the road, we discovered that the "Sportsman's Lodge" was, in fact, about 20 little Butlins style cabins with no WiFi. Sparcely furnished and worn, and the mattress was so soft and thin, that we "bottomed-out" on it. Each cabin had it's own bathroom, but it was a big let down compared to where we thought we would be staying.. That said, it wasn't crazy expensive (~UKP 140), so I guess we got what we paid for, and the (extra cost) dinner and breakfast in that beautiful restaurant partially made up for it. Beautiful grounds too, but the bait and switch on the accomodation was definitely disappointing. None of the pictures on the (third party) website showed the exterior of the "Sportsman's Lodge", just the beautiful Country House.

From the moment you walk in the front door you know you're staying somewhere special. We stayed for two nights, on the Friday and Saturday night, and after our disappointing stay at the Dunkeld Hilton, this cheered us up. We didn't stay in the main hotel building but were lodged in the "Riverside Suites". The room was perfect and had a door leading out on to a small covered balcony overlooking their fishing beat on the river Tay. The balcony had a table and a couple of chairs so you could sit and take in the view and fresh air. We arrived a bit too late for lunch so opted for afternoon tea in the drawing room which is this big old room with those lumpy comfy chairs you'd expect of a pile such as this. On the first night we opted to dine in starting with aperitifs in the bar. The barman knocked up a couple of mean bloody mary's to get our appetites going. The restaurant is top notch and I found my three courses of scallops, chicken (really regretted not having the fillet steak after I spotted it on another diner's plate) and desert exquisite. The saucing and presentation were outstanding. As you would expect from an establishment such as the Ballathie their wine list is pretty extensive and they also have a decent selection of "new world" wines. We opted for a bottle of Angus The Bull to go with our dinner which was excellent. All in all I couldn't find a fault with the Ballathie, it would have been nice to stay in the main building, but we weren't disappointed with the river side suites. I'll definitely be back.
