Stayed here over the Easter holidays and couldn't fault it. The room was clean, the facilities and breakfast were great and the staff really could not have been more helpful. there are lots Yes, the Academy hotel decor is a bit dated, but for value for money I really couldn't fault it. We'll definately be back.

This was our 3rd visit to the resort once without children, the other 2 (including this one) with kids. Our room in the Academy Hotel easily slept 2 adults & three children (one a baby in a travel cot provided foc) with room to spare. It was clean & functional and adequate for a 3 night stay. Despite the heating... More

I stayed at this resort for a skiing trip with my kids aged 5 and 8 in April. From the moment I walked in the door I was made increadibly welcome, and throughout the stay (4 nights) the staff were fantastic. I used the pool...great. There is a big slide and wave machine although that wasn't working. One side is... More

We have just returned from a 2 night stay at the Academy Hotel. First the positives: the room was clean; the staff were well trained and friendly; Aspects Restaurant and Giovanni's Restaurant (in other hotels) were both very good. The major problem we had was the quality of the hotel itself. It is stuck in a timewarp. Our room was... More

The beds were clean and comfy and the towels were white and fluffy. We went half board and were impressed with the food. Breakfast was hot and tasty, buffet... More

Stayed here from a booking via laterooms.com. It's ok.. When I say it's ok I really mean that in the most average of ways. I travel quite a bit with my job and have stayed in some good and some very bad hotels, so I think I have quite a bit of experience in this. This however was a family... More

I stayed here 1 night (Sat 23 Feb 2013). The bedroom was immaculate, with comfortable double bed and easy chairs, and top-of-the-range bathroom/shower fittings. The only (minor) negatives were the old-style CRT TV with only 12 channels and WiFi not free. The staff were without exception friendly, courteous, and happy to help. This was very impressive. On check-in, the man... More

A brilliant stay at the academy hotel in aviemore resort. First time there with children and the facilities/staff made it easy and great fun. No fuss booking using clubcard vouchers so brilliant value too. Receptionist was really friendly and helpful. Having previously stayed at highland I expected a much lower standard in accommodation. Beside corridors being a little tatty the... More
