We had an absolutely incredible stay at this hotel! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the breathtaking view—it was truly the highlight of our trip. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel special, offering warm and welcoming service throughout our stay. The thoughtful little touches really made the experience unforgettable, such as the adorable dog bed and bowl for our furry friend, and the romantic swan-shaped towels with rose petals scattered across the bed to celebrate our honeymoon. Every detail was perfect, and we couldn't have asked for a more memorable getaway. Highly recommend this hotel for anyone looking for an exceptional and personalized experience!

I have stayed at Braemar before and it was excellent. It is now quite dated and small things are wrong. No matching wine glasses, TV not mounted properly, flickering lights. The restaurant was previously fantastic, now a shadow of its former self. Quite sad.

Amazing stay. We had a suite and absolute loved it, it was huge, we had our own spa, and an amazing view. Will definitely be coming again. Our only mistake was heading down for breakfast at 0930 to find out it was closed by then.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The water wasnt safe to drink, we were not told about this. The cleaner told us, also the sign in the bathroom said the water had issues but they were rectifying it but it was safe to use. It smelt like sulpher. The spa was dirty and very old looking. There was mould in the bathroom around the spa bath sealant and abouve the shower. The furniture was okd and tired looking. We ordered food just a small meal. The soup was bland and tasteless, pumpkin I think, however on the menu it said vege soup. My partner ordered satay chicken sticks, they had a corn and pepper salsa not satay sauce. The spa bath kept turning on through out the night every 15 minutes. The windows and glass fence were filthy. Really gone down hill, tired and overgrown with weeds in the gardens. Very disappointed as not cheap to stay.

Unfortunately this trip wasnt as great as expected. Having paid over $330 for the night, we ended up having a rather smelly night. There was an oder coming from somewhere behind the fire place (gas smelling but the gas was turned off for the summer) which the staff was unable to locate. Being fully booked that night, we were unable to change to a different room and had to spend the night in a quite pungent smelling room. We did receive a discount the next morning but none the less i am still unsure if i will visit again. Restaurant was quite over priced for what we received for dinner, lovely flavors, but i expected more considering the amout i paid. This is also the second time i have visited Braemar and on both occasions the spa part ofbthe business has been closed or unavailable. Rather disappointing, not once but twice. So dont book a stay with the expectation of being able to book a massage on your visit.
