Coylumbridge Resort Hotel

Staff were friendly and helpful. Check-in and check out were handled very efficiently. The two-bedroomed alpine lodge number 14 that we had was cosy and very tastefully furnished. The lodge had a washer dryer, dishwasher and satellite TV and a well equipped kitchen with sufficient cutlery, crockery and utensils. The beds were very comfortable. Electricity cost us GBP 25.07 for 6 days which is very reasonable considering it was a cold week with peak temperatures of around 11 to 13 degrees Celcius. I had enjoyable and very comfortable stay.

I have been going to Coylumbridge since is was owned by Stakis. The age is notable but that holds a certain charm to it. We were welcomed warmly by Ross who was very pleasant with me and the kids. The hotel itself has great amenities for the kids with a fun house, outdoor play area and indoor swimming pool. Aviemore itself is the best place in Scotland to spend a weekend. I’ll be back

The lodge we had had a well-equipped kitchen which was more than adequate for holiday cooking. The beds were comfortable, especially the pillows! The living room was quite spacious. TV has SkyTV but not the Sports channels - slight disappointment. Reception staff were very friendly and helpful. It’s about a 30 mins walk into Aviemore town centre so a car is useful. Loch an Eilein and Loch Morlich are nearby and golf is almost in town at the Spey Valley Championship Course. Overall has an enjoyable stay and would definitely return.

We stayed for two wonderful weeks at the Coylumbridge Highland Lodges. The lodges are located in an idyllic position within a short walking distance of beautiful forest, lake and mountain trails. |There’s so much to do in this area - walking, biking, adventure activities, swimming both wild and in pools and visiting local attractions.|The lodges are really comfortable. They are spacious, clean and very well resourced. |We had great sleeps in beautifully comfortable beds looking out into the forest and over the river Spey.|The kitchen enabled us to cook similar to how we would at home and for those days we didn’t want to cook there were many good restaurants nearby. |The use of the swimming pool in the nearby Coylumbridge hotel is a great asset. Really clean and well maintained the two pools (one children’s pool with chute), sauna and changing rooms are a very pleasant environment for a very relaxing time during the vacation.|A brilliant holiday - we certainly plan to make this location a regular location for our holidays.

We are not staying in the Coylumbridge hotel so I can’t give an opinion on bedrooms however we have visited this week while staying in a lodge and found the foyer area bright, comfortable, clean and very welcoming. The bar offers a good range of good value alcoholic and soft drinks.||The swimming pool is exceptionally good. The changing rooms are really clean and the facilities very well thought out. The pool and sauna are spotlessly clean and offer an extremely pleasant swimming and leisure space with a children’s pool with slide and a good sized swimming pool. The leisure staff are superb!||The staff throughout the hotel are really pleasant, friendly and helpful .||We decided to go to the buffet tonight for our evening meal and the meal was extremely good value for the £25pp charged . It included a good salad bar, soup station, and a variety of hot dishes, including a roast, casserole, vegan option, pasta and fish. There was also a variety of gateaux for desert. In fact, it was a great meal after a day out walking in the beautiful mountain and forest scenery on the doorstep of the hotel. Well worth a try to enjoy good food in a relaxed environment. You won’t come away hungry.

Fantastic, friendly staff, with great 'can do' attitude. The rooms ( hotel presently being rewired) are airy, but slightly dated. As an example, they don't have any USB connection plugs, which if you are on business, could be an issue. Great family, holiday break property, in a beautiful location. Good catering and value for money breakfasts. Recommended for a holiday break!

We had an issue, reception staff told us only a manager would be able to resolve and she claimed there was no manager on for two days despite the hotel being full. The reception lady basically said she could not be bothered with the process anyway. Uncomfortable bed, hot room despite cool weather. Probably avoid and go elsewhere if you can

We stayed for one night, and it wasn’t great, room tiny with a very small double bed, wouldn’t of been so bad but you could feel every spring in the mattress, plugs were inaccessible so hard to charge phone, had to pull out dressing table or scramble behind telly for socket. |Breakfast was ok but I woudnt recommend the porridge! |I wouldn’t stay again.

This area is beautiful and perfect for day trips to more remote areas, close to hiking and an easy walk to town and stores. There were several A-frame units, not crowded but part of the landscaped forest area. Units varied in size - ours had 3 beds upstairs. 2 baths. Heating was a bit tricky, and available in all rooms. The maintenance guy came over "to help us get it sorted"... another words - turn it on. Ha! Big puffy down blankets kept us warm, it's cold at night here (June). Big hotel with rooms to rent on the property. They had play areas, kids video and play areas too. Pool had really weird hours. Apparently it was disinfected every few hours or some such nonsense AND you had to make an appointment for available times (in mid-day). I think that would have been fun but didn't use it. An area outside with growling moving Dino's... large enough to be fun for kids... a surprise for us! We loved the extensive trail system and the ruins of a local castle on a tiny island in the lake. Trails are well marked. People were nice, staff was helpful. Area was pretty and quiet. Centrally located. Great transit system; we made appointments to see local attractions via trains / bus - gotta get the timing right and pay ahead. Note: there are stiff fines for cars traveling inside Edinburgh and London- check on this before you drive!

Being married to a Scottish Lassie, I'm there for a visit every two or three years. My recent visit had us up to the Aviemore area once again. We love it there. We stayed in one of the A-frame cabins on the property. It was about a ten minute walk to the main hotel building, which we were okay with as there were families with children running all around the main hotel building. The cabins were perfect for four of us who wanted to sleep, read and catch up with each other. Cabins are well laid out and nicely furnished. The Hilton Coylumbridge is outside of Aviemore by a little less than a mile. That meant any meals with alcohol in Aviemore meant one of us had to be a designated driver. We did take advantage of the on-site restaurant our last night, so all four of us were able to eat, drink and be merry. We will be back.

Wow!!! Lewis makes this place amazing. His customer service and willingness to help and share information is awesome. We went into town and have eaten there but the fish and chips and Louis service is unbelievable. I have traveled the world and wasn't expecting such great service.

During the main season, the kids entertainment is excellent, and one of the reasons it's been voted 'most child friendly hotel in Scotland' in previous years. Most of the hotel has been refurbished in the last couple of years, and the family suites have two rooms. The food has always been excellent when we've visited. I would however say that the changing rooms for the swimming pool are now in need for refurbishment.

This was one of the BEST holidays I've ever had. If you want a hotel and facilities for kids of all ages in Scotland, then this is your venue. The hotel has an indoor swimming pool and kids club (also a mini soft-play area). Entertainment is very good too. Outside within the campus is a large soft-play area and separate crazy golf area. It also has a trim-trail, and go-karting for the older kids as well as a play-ground. The added bit to this part of the world is it's right next to the Cairngorms resort with its skiing, sledging, pony-trekking and adult and junior fishing lakes. There's also things like archery and rafting with a leisure pool and Adventure park locally too. It's just too much.. perfect. The scenery is overwhelming too (especially the train ride from Edinburgh to Aviemore) and bicycles are available to hire. If you are going by train a stop-over in Edinburgh on the way there and back is quite a nice treat for mummy too. One thing though, when I went there was no cash-machine on the campus so you may have to go into Aviemore to get more funds, this is because there are some cash only facilities. Highly recommended for the family.

A bit outside of Aviemore (30 minutes walk) is the huge Hilton Hotel. The booked room (Double Deluxe) is really great and big enough for two. The bathroom is freshly renovated and really comfortable. We used to book just the breakfast which lasts untill 11 and has a lot of varieties in it. The lounge is lovely and there are often live music or other events like bbq etc. The hotel is really family friendly and has loads of possible out and indoor activites in the near range. There is now also a cash machine in the lobby btw. Clear recommondation!

Well, if you like your desert with hair in it, paper thin walls and a trickle of a shower this is the place for you. Unfortuantely this wasn't my cup of tea. They did have a very big tv in the room though always have to look at the positives.

The most family friendly hotel in Scotland and the holiday lodges give even more room, but still allow use of the hotel's facilities
