The coziest stay in Aviemore!
We had the most wonderful stay at Ravenscraig Guest House! The room was cozy, clean and modern, with an amazing view of the mountains out of our window. Check in was a breeze, Scott made us feel so welcome and told us to give him a shout if we needed anything. The guest house itself is beautiful, with traditional Scottish decor and is only a 10-12 minute walk from the main train station and a 5 minute walk from shops/cafes. Even though it’s on the main road there was hardly any noise, traffic or otherwise, and we felt like we were the only ones staying with how quiet it was! We couldn’t fault it in the slightest and will definitely stay here again for our next trip to Aviemore!

B&B was nice, clean and well appointed. Water pressure wasn't great and rooms at the front are on the main road through Aviemore so there can be traffic noise, but these didn't impact on our stay.

Ravenscraig Guest House 👍
Great guest house, owner was very friendly and welcoming. Bedroom was really comfy and clean with great facilities. Breakfast was excellent! It’s a short 2 minute walk into Aviemore and the guest house has free parking too. Would definitely stay again.

Highly recommend!
Comfy room with modern bathroom. The location is great - close to the shops, restaurants etc and a short drive to the mountains. The owners were lovely and made some great recommendations - they also have a very friendly cat! The breakfast was fantastic too - best we had in Scotland!!

excellent place for stay in Aviemore
Perfect for our visit, central location, clean, very friendly and helpful staff. The breakfast was excellent good choices and first class quality. The only slight criticism was the toilet was very slightly tired, needed a bit of attention but would not prevent us from returning.

Hi Derek - thanks for staying at Ravenscraig and delighted you enjoyed your stay. Over the last 12 months we have upgraded over 70% of our bathrooms. Hopefully this time next year, all our rooms will have new bathrooms - unfortunately the current climate has delayed our refurb programme. :-( All the best

I make several private trips north each year and have always been delighted with the quality of accommodation and service offered at this family-run guest house. There's an easy laid-back feel to the place. A modern set-up with that old world charm as well, First class !

Great location and friendly staff. Their breakfast was great! They take hot breakfast order including smoked salmon and scramble eggs, etc. in addition to coffee, tea, juice, cereal, yogurt, fruits. Only thing that it could have been better was the bed size. I've requested a double bed, but it was more like a full size bed (smaller than queen size) compared with other double beds we had in Scotland. However, the room was clean and very nice.

Einfaches zweckmässiges Hotel
Das Hotel an sich ist schön, die Zimmer sind aber leider etwas in die Jahre gekommen und eher klein. Das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis stimmt aber und der Service ist wunderbar, würden also trotzdem wieder hier übernachten auf der Durchreise.
