They even took our bikes in for us for safe storage even though we had a late check in. They seem to go that extra mile. The reason for the 3 stars was because our room had dust/cobwebs in areas where it hasn't been touched, also the hot tap in the bathroom was scalding hot! ##### Bryan Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Anita 17 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Disliked: Staff & service Macdonalds Aviemore Resort looking tired. We paid for an upgrade so had a lovely room. The resort closes earlier than advertised so we did not get the time to go use the pool facilities The Italian restaurant was closed and Aspects was poor service.

Julie and I had a great stay at the hotel. Unfortunately we had to take Alfie, Julie’s scruffy wee dog at the last minute. I spoke to someone at the hotel and they kindly moved us to their sister hotel next door that allows wee hairy animals. We certainly would return again. I might even consider inviting Alfie as he enjoyed his stay too 😊. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/9c894785-dd81-4398-87c0-83b2eae523ec-1752213666081.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/7583ee42-a63c-4bcc-b665-177326a919ad-1752213668460.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Gary Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Nanxi 19 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The rooms are older, the soundproofing is worse, the lift is still broken, but overall it's more comfortable and the restaurant is nice with lots of breakfast options. ##### Nanxi Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Daniel 17 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Superb ##### Daniel Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Paul 17 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Amenities Rooms are too hot and reception told us they didn't supply fans.

The corridors were badly marked paint work looked tired . Staff were not the happiest they weren't rude but it looked like they were attending a funeral. Value for money l wouldn't return anytime soon. The breakfast was one of the worst selections of cooked food l have had in a long time the sausages were overcooked the bacon wasn't any better. And the porridge was watery. Very disappointed as you look forward to a good breakfast. We certainly wont be rushing back anytime soon . ##### Mark Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lalit 31 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Relaxing experience at Macdonald Morlich Hotel Overall a very comfortable experience. This is the second time we stayed in Macdonald's hotel, opted for half board and loved our meals everynight. Breakfast was great, would be nice to have meatfree options for vegetarians, even if not in buffet but can offer to prepare it if requested, still loved scones and beans and pancakes, kind and caring staff. ##### Lalit Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### John 1 Aug 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great location but poor hotel The room was not cleaned properly. 5 of the 6 glasses had lipstick / lip marks on them, there was a disposable floss item in the floor, one of the towels had a mark / stain (like fecal matter) and there were items in the drawer left from a previous guest. The reception staff were very apologetic and quick to act on this. The room was extremely noisy with little to no sound proofing between rooms and the built in tv speakers in the neighbouring bathroom blasting into our own. ##### John Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### David 17 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Very nice hotel with a lot of facilities, downside full of coach tours (to be expected) and my room was close to the lift which was very noisy ##### David Stayed 1 night in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dougie 16 Dec 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Full marks to McDonald hotels. We happened to be staying on one of their Santa Claus weekends and the atmosphere was lovely with lots of excited kids. The staff were great dressed in xmas jerseys and a lot of elves about. The hotel was very warm and welcoming the staff excellent, and a very comfortable room. ##### Dougie Stayed 1 night in Dec 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Paul 22 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Jessica on reception was a great ambassador for them ##### Paul Stayed 1 night in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 6 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Everything was good although we did overhear someone complaining about the cleanliness and maintenance of the toilets ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Claymore Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Arrochar-Hotels-CLAYMORE-HOTEL.h57956439.Hotel-Information) > > [Marine Troon](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Troon-Hotels-The-Marine-Hotel.h554927.Hotel-Information) > > [The Stirling Highland Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stirling-Hotels-The-Stirling-Highland-Hotel.h558482.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont St Andrews](https://www.expedia.co.uk/St-Andrews-Hotels-Fairmont-St-Andrews.h663479.Hotel-Information) > > [Dunkeld House Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dunkeld-Hotels-Dunkeld-House-Hotel.h520427.Hotel-Information) > > [Apex City Quay Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dundee-Hotels-Apex-City-Quay-Hotel-Spa.h897382.Hotel-Information) > > [Adamton Country House Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Prestwick-Hotels-Adamton-Country-House-Hotel.h3277768.Hotel-Information) > > [Glynhill Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Renfrew-Hotels-Glynhill-Hotel.h868692.Hotel-Information) > > [JA Mar Hall Scotland](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bishopton-Hotels-Mar-Hall-Golf-Spa-Resort.h1077249.Hotel-Information) > > [Loch Long Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Arrochar-Hotels-Loch-Long-Hotel.h16270964.Hotel-Information) > > [Fonab Castle Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pitlochry-Hotels-Fonab-Castle-Hotel-Spa.h5991409.Hotel-Information) > > [The Victoria Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kirkcaldy-Hotels-The-Victoria-Hotel.h4482159.Hotel-Information) > > [The George Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Inveraray-Hotels-The-George-Hotel.h24458716.Hotel-Information) > > [Inglewood House and Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Alloa-Hotels-Inglewood-House-And-Spa.h12709295.Hotel-Information) > > [The Caledonian Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Fort-William-Hotels-The-Caledonian-Hotel.h13407571.Hotel-Information) > > [Cameron House on Loch Lomond](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Alexandria-Hotels-Cameron-House-On-Loch-Lomond.h980306.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Glasgow Airport by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paisley-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Glasgow-Airport.h519994.Hotel-Information) > > [Moness Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Aberfeldy-Hotels-Moness-Resort.h2955414.Hotel-Information) > > [The Great Western Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oban-Hotels-The-Great-Western-Hotel.h13407325.Hotel-Information) > > [The Pitlochry Hydro Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pitlochry-Hotels-The-Pitlochry-Hydro-Hotel.h1854094.Hotel-Information) > > [Dakota Eurocentral](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Motherwell-Hotels-Dakota-Eurocentral.h1516635.Hotel-Information) > > [The Waverley Castle Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melrose-Hotels-The-Waverley-Castle-Hotel.h13431010.Hotel-Information) > > [Apex Dunblane Hydro Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dunblane-Hotels-Apex-Dunblane-Hydro-Hotel.h520461.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton Hamilton Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hamilton-Hotels-Hampton-By-Hilton-Hamilton-Park.h33810078.Hotel-Information) > > [Wyndham Duchally Country Estate](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Auchterarder-Hotels-CLC-Duchally-Country-Estate-Hotel-Resort.h79023.Hotel-Information) > > [Riverside Lodge Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Irvine-Hotels-Riverside-Lodge-Hotel.h8519.Hotel-Information) > > [Arrochar Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Arrochar-Hotels-Arrochar-Hotel.h1423391.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Glasgow Airport by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paisley-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Glasgow-Airport.h809324.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Glasgow Strathclyde](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bellshill-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Glasgow-Strathclyde.h520473.Hotel-Information) ---
