It was very convenient to the area, and the hosts were helpful and kind. We had a wonderful dinner while we stayed, enjoyed the lamb and fish & chips. Breakfast was also very tasty, really nice coffee. The bed was comfy and everything in the room was great.

This is a great independent hostel, warmly welcoming, cozy, and comfortable. We stayed in a six bed dorm, which had an attached toilet and shower, while we attended the Braemar Highland Games. You can trave by bus from Ballater to Braemer but be sure to get the early bus.
No 45, Ballater is a guest house set in an acre of gardens and is just 5 minutes' walk from the center of Ballater. The individually designed rooms each offer unique charm.

What a beautiful place, with such helpful, friendly hosts

Great place to visit, ample shops for food, with may different tourist shops. Good choice of excellent coffee shops, bars and restaurants, to meet all budgets. One of our regular day trip destinations, but stayed for three nights to do local walks, enjoy the restaurants and the surrounding scenery. The Royals connection makes it interesting to buy from the King's local butcher, pharmacy and bakery all with Royal Warrants Displayed. Very friendly people. Ample free parking.
Can recommend the Balmoral Bar, The Fish Shop (restaurant).

Though the drive was long and windy, our visit to Ballater was spectacular! Dotted with rolling hills and scenic rivers, Ballater is one of the most tranquil towns I’ve ever stayed in!
Filled with so much history , and place host to the Royal Family in Balmoral, the village provides a peaceful retreat from a busy city life! Gentlemen farmers wear traditional tweed jackets, waist coats and flat hats with wellies! How can one look so good in wellies! 👍

Our family have been visiting Ballater several times a year...
Our family have been visiting Ballater several times a year for the past 40 years and we love it. Stunning location and views for the Scottish Highlands.
We would also recommend eating out and supporting the local businesses including The Barrel (Bar) stunning cosy fire and super friendly locals. The Clachan for a lovely steak dinner, and pop in to Brown Sugar Cafe.
All super friendly dog places and our dog loved sitting with all the locals and chatting!

We like just about everything about the Auld Kirk and its hosts. The building itself is full of character, really nicely converted from church to hotel and a short walk into central Ballater. The hosts were particularly friendly and helpful and shared local knowledge with us. The breakfast was generous and the hot dishes were freshly cooked to order, we took leftovers with us on the 7 Bridges Walk for morning tea.
The location is great for visiting Balmoral and other castles.The whole place is warm and cosy and very clean.The staff especially Fiona are very friendly and helpful.Everything works.Breakfast is lovely and plenty of choice.The scrambled eggs and smoked salmon is especially nice.Parking next to the hotel.It is in Ballater which is a lovely town.It is right beside the bridge over the beautiful river Dee
We were caught in the area due to storm Babbet and happened to be booked into this hotel and how lucky were we! The staff went above and beyond to make our stay and all the other guests so happy and comfortable under dreadful circumstances. We both had a personal spa treatment which was absolutely amazing!
We had a lovely stay at the Gordon Guest house. Steve and Beth do a brilliant job of running a small hotel. Breakfast was fab and really comfy bed. We stay in Ballater a lot and will definitely stay again.
