About Macdonald Aviemore Hotel
Loch Morlich is a short drive away, and the surrounding Cairngorms National Park offers walking, cycling, golf and fishing right on the doorstep, making Macdonald Aviemore Hotel a practical base for exploring the area. Aviemore itself is close by for pubs, restaurants and everyday essentials, and the hotel's own mountain views give a sense of the landscape without having to leave the grounds.
The hotel has 108 rooms across three floors, including family and accessible options, all with en-suite bathrooms. There's a lift for easier access, and facilities extend to a restaurant, bar, breakfast service and packed lunches for days out. Guests can use the indoor swimming pool, gym, spa and sauna, or unwind in the hot tub after a day on the hills. A games room, garden, picnic area and outdoor seating add to the space to relax, and the hotel also handles weddings and meetings, with dedicated meeting rooms available.
Free on-site parking is provided, and pets are welcome, which makes it a straightforward choice for those travelling with dogs or planning multi-stop trips through the Highlands. Laundry service and luggage storage are on hand for longer stays, and with golf, fishing and watersports all nearby, there's enough to fill a stay built around the outdoors.
People say this hotel offers excellent facilities for families, including a pool, soft play, and cinema, with friendly and helpful staff, and delicious breakfast and dinner options.
Other reviews mention the rooms can be poorly maintained and dated.
