Hotel Atholl Palace

The Atholl Palace Hotel, the epitome of Scottish baronial splendour, stands imposingly overlooking wooded parkland grounds and the town of Pitlochry. Originally opened as the Athole Hydropathic in Victorian times, the property is now a major resort and destination with spectacular gardens, a spa and a museum featuring the life and times of the hotel. Welcome to a unique location, where the sounds of bagpipes may frequently be heard, where you will not forget the view of Ben-y-Vrackie as you stroll on the terrace in the evening sun, where a genuinely warm Highland welcome awaits you. Relax in the chandelier-lit lounges with log fires, or use some of the leisure facilities. The hotel features: an indoor swimming pool; Jacuzzi; sauna and steam room; fully-equipped gym; 9-hole pitch and putt course; putting green; tennis courts; outdoor heated pool (May to September); and snooker. An ideal centre for touring Scotland, with most areas being easily reachable on a day trip, during your stay you can also explore the wonderful natural surroundings.
