New Dungeon Ghyll Hotel

New Dungeon Ghyll Hotel

8/10 Good
"Wonderful location of course. But room was tired and in need of some basic maintenance. Was very noticeable when opening the wardrobe door. Breakfast service started too late (7.15 IIRC) for my hiking plans so was sorry to miss out. And somewhat limited parking at rear of hotel, which must be problematic when hotel/bar is busy during high season."
