About Parklands Hotel
Parklands occupies a Georgian townhouse on St Leonard's Bank, raised above the South Inch parkland on the edge of Perth's old town, with the city centre a five to ten minute walk away across the park. It is a smaller, independently run hotel rather than a large chain property, and the scale shows in the personal service and the care taken over the public rooms, which look out over the Inch towards the river.
The bedrooms are individually decorated, ranging from cosy standard rooms to larger doubles with views over the parkland, and are kept to a good standard of comfort rather than statement design. Several rooms have been recently refreshed, and the hotel's compact size means it rarely feels crowded even when busy.
The hotel's restaurant has long been one of the more talked-about dining rooms in Perth, built around a short, produce-led menu that changes with the seasons, and it draws local diners as well as hotel guests, so booking ahead is worthwhile. There is also a more relaxed bar and lounge for a simpler meal or a drink after a day out.
It suits couples and anyone who wants to be close to the city centre and the South Inch without staying in the busiest part of the High Street, combined with a serious reason to eat in rather than go looking elsewhere.

What guests say
We had a lovely one night stay in this small hotel. Ideal location really near to the railway station but also only a short walk into the middle of Perth. Reception was more than happy to store our luggage until check in time. We received a WhatsApp on arrival with all the information we needed for our stay. We had booked a compact double room and I wasn't sure how much space we would have but I was pleasantly surprised and the bathroom was very spacious. The room was very clean and well appointed with everything we needed. All members of staff were very polite, friendly and helpful. The grounds and garden are lovely for an alfresco drink or two. Finally the food - we had dinner and breakfast and both were absolutely delicious. The breakfast is pre ordered the night before which means the hotel is able to offer far more choice. I would definitely recommend this hotel for a short stay in Perth and we hope to return.

We stayed at Parklands Hotel for one night as a short getaway from busy Edinburgh, and it turned out to be a comfortable and pleasant stay. The location was great, and our room was spacious and well set up. It seemed recently refurbished, as there was still a slight smell of paint or glue, but everything looked fresh and modern. The shower room was large and had all the amenities we needed, which was a nice touch. Most importantly, we had a good night’s sleep — quiet, comfortable, and exactly what we were hoping for during our short break. Overall, Parklands Hotel is a solid choice for a relaxing night away, with a great location and comfortable rooms.

Great stay here, the room was lovely a clean, service was amazing from the staff and breakfast in the morning was perfect. The lighting out on the front of the hotel was gorgeous at night, the photos absolutely speak for themselves. The bed wasn't as comfortable as we were expecting but we still had a lovely stay. (The trains were able to be seen out of our window which was nice).
