Beautiful large rooms with a tub for a plus! Hotel staff were caring, noticed my parter was unwell and offered to package room for our room so we would be comfortable. Cannot appreciate the comparison he showed us after a long day of driving and very little energy to think. Those small touches go a long way

A great family hotel, with loads of character. We have stayed here a number of times when in the Cairngorms, and always come back. The owner, Martin, and his team always go out of their way to make a cosy, comfortable and thoroughly enjoyable stay for a family with young children. Martin remembered us from previous visits and knew what we liked. A beautiful Victorian building, originally a hunting lodge, with many original features and great views, currently undergoing a gentle process of refurbishment.

Tomintoul is a really small town and we might have been there in off season, so it was really quiet. But the room was big, the view over the town center awesome and the nightsky as well ;-) We had dinner and breakfast there and I liked both a lot. All of the staff were really nice and I also got greeted by the cute cat!

A very friendly welcome in this lovely old hotel in Tomintoul. Nice twin room, good shower pressure. Oddly, no towel rail in the bathroom. Excellent venison casserole for dinner. Good selection on the breakfast menu. Kindly made me a sandwich for my lunch on the Speyside Way. Would happily stay again.

On the surface the Richmond Arms Hotel looks dowdy and had seen better days. The reality was a hotel full of character, very helpful staff and a comfortable two day stay. Our original plan was to eat at the hotel for one night and the restaurant across the road for the second, but the hotel food was so good we ate there both nights. The hotel bar was a friendly place, with Tomintoul whisky at just £3.70 a shot.

Good points - staff friendly, food very good. Don’t know how long the owners have been here but there’s great potential. Not so great - the hotel is dated and in need of an update, the chair in our room had a broken seat and it just felt tired. The bar had a row of armchairs in front of it which might be a Scottish thing but seemed odd?

The hotel was OK but we had a top floor room and there was literally no water pressure. The shower was nothing more than a dribble. Also had to have a wifi booster brought upstairs to pick up a wifi signal. The bar was cosy for an evening drink but overall can’t really recommend.

Visited for an evening meal. Really nice place, dated but it adds charm. Really tasty food, I'd recommend the chicken pie (specials menu). All that is needed is a traditional Scottish band playing in the corner.

We stayed for three nights at this hotel in Tomintoul. We had a huge room overlooking the square. Perfectly cleaned every day and the breakfast was also very good. The menu for the evening meal is not extensive but that is fine. The food is very tasty. All staff members are friendly and cheerful. Okay, perhaps not everything is up to modern standards, but hey, this is the middle of Scotland. Hotels like these are the cherry on the cake.
