Wonderful stay. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. We loved the charm of the hotel. Located right in town with quaint shops. The walk path along the Gynack Burn was very relaxing and informative. Great to stay in the Highlands if Scotland.
This was our first experience at the Duke of Gordon but we would visit again. The rooms were comfy and clean, the food and service was excellent. The staff were second to none as every one was very helpful and friendly. We would recommend this Hotel to our friends.
It's an older hotel, but I think that is part of its charm. I love the architecture of older places. My boyfriend and I loved the view from our window. We liked watching the storm come in the night we stayed. The elevator was down when we were there, but they were working to repair it. A buffet breakfast was included with our stay, and it was good. We didn't have dinner at the hotel so I can't speak to that. There were several restaurants within walking distance. We wanted to explore the town so walked to one of those. Staff was very friendly, and there was lots of room in the parking lot. I would stay there again should I revisit Scotland. ❤️

We liked our stay here and the folks working the front desk and breakfast were pleasant. There wasn’t any thing to do in the evening but go to the bar. The place is old and interesting. We slept great and there’s some great hiking right behind the hotel.
The hôtel was just perfect. We loved the atmosphere, the room was clean and comfortable. The food was good. Very easy to find and to reach from the station. Many ways to go to a walk from the hotel. And a really good welcome. You should stop in Kingussie and stay in DUKE OF GORDON.
The hotel is in a great location.
We got our room at a great price, it was very spacious and had a lovely bathroom.
The breakfast buffet was good however the cooked options for vegetarians were limited with us only finding out that you needed to order vegetarian sausages the day prior.
There was entertainment somewhere evenings which is good to cater for everyone
Loved our stay.
Suggest pre-booking if you want to dine in the restaurant. We had a meal in the bar, it was,very nice although we felt the staff were a little stressed... can't quite put my finger on it. Maybe just that it was a bit late.
The staff were lovely- even helping us out with boxed breakfasts which were made available more than half an hour before the kitchen opened for the morning we had an early start. One of our 3 booked rooms had a problem, but that couple was upgraded to a better room and once again, the staff were very accomodating
