Love Aviemore so booked the Spey valley lodges. The lodges are starting to look quite run down, especially the outside with peeling paint. The inside is a little dated but was clean enough. One of the single beds had no bottom sheet on it and a dead spider lying between blanket.Obviously this bed was not made up fresh. Check in is 5pm and checkout was 10am I find this utterly ridiculous. I did enjoy the onsite restaurant and bar. Staff were nice. I would come again but not at the prices they charge and checking should be earlier.

Very dated property. Cleanliness questionable - found a long black hair in two of the beds and a stained pillow case. Entry door was very badly maintained - flakey paint and dirty. More like a Glasgow council estate than a holiday resort.

Nice location
Check in was quick and easy as was finding our chalet. Stayed in chalet 1 and the chalet itself was clean and tidy however definitely tired and in need of a refurb. Nothing was broken or anything but a lot of paint scraped and dated furniture and fittings. The grounds of the resort were lovely and lots of nice dog walks nearby. A short walk into town so good location wise. Great for families or dogs as had plenty of space and tranquility around you. Didn’t use the leisure facilities and ate in the bar one night as the dog isn’t allowed in the restaurant unfortunately so missed a lot of menu items due to this. Overall happy with our stay and would stay again purely down to the setting and location of the chalets rather than a hotel. But please update the chalets a little to modernise them somewhat. No bedside tables meant no where to put a book or glass or your phone and the bathroom was dated.

There's nothing to like about this place. Beds and sofas are filthy and full of animals hair . We spent hours cleaning the rooms. I'm very disappointed. The only thing kids may like is the swimming pool. By the way there is a bar infront of the swimming pool with full wide clear glass. But you're in luck if they let you in. We've been told it is fully booked and to try another day. Customer service is poor. They're not consistent with their information. If you travel with kids try other options this place is not family friendly place.

I like the Spey Valley apartments cause they are spacious for a family with 2 kids. Great location getting into town and lots of food options around. What can be better: - we payed for 4 people but the apartment was set up for 2 and we needed to ask for extra bedding and towels. The pool is only 25 degrees and it’s too cold for a play. The restaurant can be more encouraging for people to eat and spend time there.

When we arrived we were told the leisure facilities were open however the pool was cold and jacuzzi not working, but it would be fixed soon. It was not fixed the while stay. The indoor leisure facilities was one of the main reason for choosing this resort. The apartment had only 2 small saucepans to cook in an apartment that can sleep 8
