รีวิว The Atholl Palace

We walked from the train station, could not get a cab or a ride from the Hotel. Cabs in this town should be prebooked. Quite a walk luckily we travel light. We wanted to get transportation via cab, bus, private driver to Blair Atholl castle but the very nice front desk gentleman couldnt help us at all. Basically, sorry, good luck, maybe someone in town can help. The Hotel itself is very dated in decor. We visited the museum in the basement and after reading the storied history and financial difficulties this Hotel has had it made sense. The museum was interesting but not well kept and we felt as if no one from the Hotel straightens, swept floors or dusted down there. Our room was clean enough but such a hodgepodge of decor. Large tour buses full of guests keep this place afloat. The grand exterior does not reflect the inside or service you'd expect. We enjoyed walking through the town, across the suspended bridge, and having a drink on the gorgeous river near the fish ladder. The gentlemen at the train station was the most helpful person and we were able to have a lovely visit at Blair Atholl the following day on our way to Inverness.
