The room was very clean and warm. Toiletries, bath robes and slippers provided (although slippers a little on the large size for me, just being a size 2) !! Staff very efficient and friendly. Breakfast very nice and served to order lovely and hot. Dinner was also delicious. Coffee/tea was served in lounge following dinner in front of a lovely roaring log fire. Overall highly recommend this excellent hotel and will definitely return in the future.
Had a wonderful stay. Staff were super friendly and you felt they genuinely wanted to make your stay special. The location was super with fantastic views from the balcony. Booked 1 evening meal in the restaurant but wished we’d booked 2. Would definitely stay there again.
We stayed at this charming hotel July 15-18 and were so pleased that we picked this property in Pitlochry. Perched on a hill, the hotel is a lovely 19th century stone building and the interior is impeccably maintained and spotlessly clean. We had a premium room and were amazed by the size and beautiful views over Pitlochry.
Our first night we decided ahead of time to dine at the hotel and it was absolutely wonderful. From the canapés and drink in the lounge to the last bite of dessert it was delicious.
The included breakfast is top notch; I had a full Scottish breakfast one day and all the ingredients are clearly high quality, expertly prepared.
On our last day we had to leave early for the airport and were hoping that we’d be able to perhaps get a breakfast roll or something for the car ride. Mind you, breakfast starts at 8:00 and we were leaving by 7:00. Not only did we get breakfast sandwiches, they thoughtfully added some other goodies like shortbread, bottled water and crisps and even came in early (before 7:00!) and made us coffees to take away!
The Knockendarroch Hotel is at the top of our list for quality, service, comfort and value. What a gem in Perthshire.

We couldnt fault anything with our stay. The Larch suite was fantastic. The evening meal and staff were all excellent.
Wonderful hotel in scenic Pitlochry. Our room was delightful and the bed was soooo comfortable. The breakfast room was beautiful. The sitting room off of the lobby was so warm and cozy with the fireplace burning. Great location. Breakfasts are all cooked to ordered. Excellent food but slow. We loved Pitlochary and hope to come back.
From check in to check out I cannot fault this hotel. Very clean comfortable room, exceptional food, friendly personal service, good location and excellent views.
We had a lovely spacious room in this beautiful hotel. The staff were all attentive, friendly and helpful. The food was exceptional and everywhere was spotlessly clean.
The first time we have been and it certainly lived up to the recommendations we'd had .
Excellent food and service and very comfortable bed. We will be back!

Overall Staff was great (most of them, one seemed to be annoyed to have to serve us) - the meal was good, room was okay but way too much for what it was. Town was amazing, people there amazing, all to say it was great but the stay felt a bit uppity and proper British, while it’s a nice Scottish place that generally means friendly people - some of the patrons there ruined that for us (some old British man making us feel a bit out of place) - the hotel can’t help the patrons they serve, but it was fairly expensive for what you got compared to other places we stayed in Edinburgh and other areas around Scotland.
The hotel is in a built up area however this doesnt take away from the beauty of it. Its been left alone apart from decoration which has been done well and sympthetically
Incredible dining experience! Dinner was amazing. Breakfast delicious also. Wonderful staff/service. Room was very clean and had all necessary amenities in a somewhat tight room with a queen bed. Lovely how they have guests together in the living room prior to dinner service.
One concern was we arrived 20 minutes early to check in and we’re promptly told our room wasn’t ready and maybe we could take a walk into town. That was fine with us but it was done, sadly, in an unwelcoming manner
