I've been staying in Crieff and the surrounding area for years. Never stayed here though but have wanted to. It didn't disappoint on food , facilities, rooms, or front desk service. A small error on the bill was rectified immediately without hassle. My only quibble is the parking way away from the entrance. My son is disabled but we forgot our blue […] badge for the hire car, they wouldn't relax the rules, give us a permit or something, as it was obvious looking at him in his chair. The path to the car park is on a massive gradient with an unmade path. The able bodied would struggle let alone any one with kids or the infirm. That aside we had a lovely time would recommend.

Thought everything about this place was great, food was delicious, so tasty, staff very helpful and friendly, we stayed in a double standard room, nice enough, not as nice as the rest of the hotel though. The Victorian spa was fabulous, I also had a full body hot stone massage and this was just the best ever, can't wait to go back:)

The hotel is beginning to look a bit tired and needs a programme of refurbishment. The staff are all very well meaning - but the restaurant management (of all restaurants) requires improvement to speed the very slow service. On the plus side - staff are friendly, the hotel has a great range of facilities and activities - and the location is superb.

Evening meal and service was first class however breakfast was chaotic which reduced service quality. Well lit spacious room. Lack of hot water in the shower in the morning. Spa experience was very relaxing.

This hotel is lovely . The weekend we went was fully booked so was VERY busy. The room we were in was very noisy from the corridor. Food was excellent and breakfast was brilliant. Found the drinks a bit over the top and the charge for the Victorian spa too high.

As before the entire experience is wonderful. One could stay for a weekend and not require to set foot outside the door as there is so much to do without being bored or looking to go further afield. A great experience. The spa pool set up is fantastic, food excellent and staff are first class. keep it up!

Had an enjoyable stay at the Crieff Hydro hotel. Only observation we had, is if you are planning a romantic evening meal you would be better off going out. Booked the Meikle Restaurant for dinner at 18.45. There were a lot of families staying who had also booked for dinner. The restaurant has no atmosphere as it has to cater for the children by having […] every light on in the room. Read more

We stayed at Creiff Hydro at the begining of February 2013 it was a great short break. We were very pleased with the hotel its self the food was good the room was very comfortable and spotless. We found the prices were a wee bit on the high side. We were bed and breakfast and the breakfast were amazing set you up for the rest of the day. We would certainly […] consider another visit in the near future prehaps with some of the family Read more

Enjoyed a relaxing evening. Bed comfy but the lift was just behind us so we could hear it quite early in the morning

I was disappointed with some aspects of the hotel not being as modern as portrayed on the website especially our room. The service however was faultless and there is plenty for everyone to do.

Breakfast cold. No soap in the bathroom despite note re Noravirus. Booking arrangements poor. Booked second night and told we would need to move room; packed; room stripped and then re-booked in same room! Someones not communicating well. Having said that Leisure staff pleasant and Excellent venue for families with young children. Doesn't match (or […] probably cater for the same market) as Gleneagles, St. Andrews hotels etc. Read more

I booked full board and paid for full board prior to arrival. On arrival I was disappointed at the manner and attitude of the receptionist 'Amy' who greeted me by asking me my name then saying that I had booked B&B only. Thankfully I had printed my confirmation which stated Full Board this still did not convince her she proceeded to contact the IT? […] team as I waited others were being checked in with no problem I felt embarassed as I stood waiting then I asked what the problem was she said I'll book you in anyway then proceeded with an unconvincing 'welcome to creiff hydro' I laughed. I was given a room with a view at the top of the hotel with no lift and and a staircase that only suits children having bumps on my head to prove it. The room was ok the views beautiful. I wanted to dine in different restaurants which on two occassions caused major problems and I felt like a real nuisance. The hotel is a bit run down and costs an extra £10 a day for the adult spa a rip off and not worth it. Food was medioca and mainly buffet style unless you want to pay extra. The grounds are beautiful and thankfully I'm a walker and enjoyed the surrounding areas. There are plenty activities that cost. The entertainment at night was ceidhli dance bright lights and lots of children. Waiting staff were mostly courteous. The best 5* service was from the porter. This hotel is no where close to 5* I would rate this hotel as a 3*. Given the cost it was not worth it. Read more

Regular visitor and yet to be disappointed. Service excelent and facilities extensive.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Lovely hotel but our room was bit dated and in need of refurbishment

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Paid extra for double rather than single due to small size of singles. Given room 16 basically room full of beds so still claustrophobic. Very noisy as right by their delivery bay for early morning bin men each day. Would not recommend, would get same level of comfort from budget hotel chain. Hotel seems to be only aiming at indulgent grandparents treating […] their grandchildren and conference market. Not geared up for individuals looking for a comfortable break. Read more

This hotel is excellent for families and has lots of child friendly activities. For those looking for a more relaxing and intimate break there is a real lack of cosy social space.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Hotel was in a lovely location and the downstairs decor was beautiful. However it became a little shabby as you climbed the floors.

Genuine Expedia guest review

The hotel itself is lovely but quality of food and cost but was not good. Cost of food and drink very expensive and was not impressed with the food we had in the Brasserie. The lunch we had in The Hub was ok but the layout there is very unsuitable, nowhere to lay your tray with your food as huge jars with cookies in them in the way and the cash desk […] where you pay you are having to lift your tray up high. This is obviously a hotel for families - but did not think it catered for families as not practical. Was not impressed. Read more

We stayed at Crieff hydro for 2 nights over the first weekend in the October holidays. We have a toddler and it was the most amazing hotel to go to with a child. Our son is not yet two so couldn't go into big country but there was still a huge amount for him to do. He loved the three storey soft play and the toy room In the theatre. There was a lovely […] selection of toys and we saw lots of kids from different ages under 5 all enjoying it equally. The pool was lovely. Very clean and the baby pool was beautifully warm. There was a good selection of toys for kids at the pool. The outdoor playpark was brilliant. The hotel is well situated for days out and we went to Blair Drummond safari park and had a great day there. The service was excellent. Everyone was only too happy to help and staff members were all very friendly and helpful. The only thing I would say could be improved on was service in the brasserie. The servers were very friendly and helpful once again but it was a bit chaotic and one night we got our shared starter at the same time as our main meal and the following night it was about 15-20 minutes before our drinks order was taken. Just a small thing though in what was an otherwise perfect break. We will definitely be back. Read more

The room I was booked into was terrible, extremely badly stained runkled carpet which gave an overall feeling that the room was dirty ever is it was not. The room itself was obviously used as an overflow room when the hotel was very busy which it was. I finally grudgingly accepted the third room offered. Service was not great, very young staff under […] a lot of pressure, breakfast was a lottery, had to wait for a table and the buffet breakfast feable, if they had managed to keep both the hot and cold buffet areas topped up with food instead of having people wait till they, 'the staff' decided topping up was required breakfast may have been a much better experience, very poorly managed. The main Meikle Bar was advertised as kids free after 8.30pm but buggies and children were still present and running around after 11pm. Extra money to get into the adult only spa. Overall a hugely disapointing and costly weekend. CREIFF HYDRO never ever again. Read more

Overall enjoyed our stay at the Crieff Hydro Hotel. The main dining romm is in need of refurbishment ( especially the table & chairs.)

thorughly enjoyed our stay,great hotel with lots to do. only complaint is two rude people jumping the queue to ask reception questions when we were clearly standing waiting!!

Excellent facilities. Take as much of your own sports equipment as possible. Tennis, badminton, table tennis rackets balls etc. Saves on the bookings and hire costs. Activities were good but fairly costly. Kids enjoyed the regular trips to the pool. Disappointing that there was no fridge in the room. TV was old and bulky and didn't have hdmi connection […] for the kids games console. Far better quality than centre parks but with lots of the same activities. Read more

I had a very nice weekend at the Crieff Hydro. The hotel itself is very impressive, dating back to the late 1800's. Some parts of the hotel has been modernized and re-decorated, others seems kind of old and worn. My room was small, but very nice, especially the bathroom. Fantastic bed! The facilities are impressive, nice garden, two restaurants, entertainment, […] spa etc. Breakfast was a little boring. The hotel is situated a little bit in nowhere, but I guess that's the point...
