A charming historic mansion within strolling distance of Elgin's main town centre. Well preserved, an interesting waltz into the past, comfortable lounge and games area. Wonderful dinner service and a super friendly and informative waiter. We were well cared for. Our room was a generous size and comfortable.

Charming Stay at Mansion House Elgin We recently stayed at Mansion House Elgin and were thoroughly impressed. The hotel is conveniently located just a short stroll from the town centre, making it ideal for exploring local shops and attractions. On-site parking was a huge plus. Our room was spacious, well appointed, and very comfortable, with a massive bed that guaranteed a great night's sleep. The breakfast was excellent, offering a generous selection of hot and cold options. Service throughout our stay was warm and attentive. The staff were friendly, professional, and always happy to help. Overall, Mansion House Elgin provided a relaxing and enjoyable experience.

This is an OLD hold. Looks neat however very LOUD. The pipes 'banged' all night and kept us awake (and yes we had ear plugs in) and we went down to the front desk at 1AM and then called the on call number multiple times. No answer. No return call. Told staff in AM. They promised a manager would call us back and make it right. We called and emailed multiple times. No response from manager. We drove four hours round tip out of our way to stay here because it looked 'neat'. Dont make that mistake! It was a waste of a drive and money! We missed our morning excursion because we were too tired to drive that morning and had to sleep in our car. Horrible communication with management - better yet no communication with management besides they will look into it. Iona (spelling?) was pleasant at check in

This hotel was full of character a bit tired in parts of it but thats understandable due to how old it is.The rooms were very spacious & spotless,my only concern was the shower in the bath it was a bit difficult to get in & out of it.The breakfast was outstanding & the service was 1st class.We only stayed for 1 night so we didnt get to explore much.Its only a 5min walk from the towncentre plenty of pubs & restaurants.

Mixed, but still enjoyed our stay

The carpets need updating- they are srained and tatty. Hiwever the beds were very comfortable and the staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfast was disappointing and didnt taste very nice.

Disappointed

This was over priced and did not represent value for money. The only positive things I can say are: 1. A fabulous building in a good location! But you need it... 2. Pleasant, helpful staff! 3. A great breakfast - superb in fact! Apart from the coffee (my subjective opinion of course) Sadly... Currently no dinner option available. So you need to stride out! Or call in a meal! I was in the "Lodge". Its a fair distance from the main building so factor that if mobility is an issue. There are stairs, so consider accessibility! My room was cold. Adjusting the radiator valve made no change - (suspect the boiler off!) I had a "private bathroom" but it was several pacss across the main access hall way, passing another room, and required a physical key to unlock! A total palaver - lock room door, dash across the hall, unlock bathroom - and the reverse when you are done. A dressing gown was provided - but it was probably sized for a teenager. Rooms are tired and need a deep clean and fresh decor. There was tea and coffee making facilities - but no water in the room...so out of the room, lock the door, off to the kitchen, fill the kettle ...you get the picture! Overall - average! And I think I'm being generous.
