We stayed in Perth to attend a local wedding. Lots of history about the place, various annexes off the main building. Note, no lift available to the 2nd floor where we stayed. We did ask for a quiet room - and got one. The Royal George has the potential for a poor stay, as they are very popular for occasions... More

Dear Brooska, thank you for taking the time to put down your comments on your stay at The Royal George. I am delighted you asked for a quiet room and found no problems. I am slightly baffled that whilst you admit you had no problems, you remark that the hotel has the potential for a poor stay if there is... More

Booked this hotel at the last minute after being double booked by another. The hotel was very easy to find although finding the car park was harder. There is limited space in the car park and this may prove a problem for some. The girl on the reception desk was very pleasant and efficient and had us booked in quickly.... More

Upgraded to a suite which was lovely. TV didn't work - was told this was due to a DTV outage in Perthshire. Later discovered this was nonsense. £13 for fried frozen scampi, frozen chips and brown salad leaves at high tea. G&T served with one ice cube in a cheap 1970's glass with a sliver of pickled lemon. Asked for... More

Thank you for taking the time to air your comments on your stay at the hotel. I am delighted you found our suite lovely, but was surprised you then only rated our accommodation at 60%! The TV wasn’t working as a fuse had blown which was feeding the ariel to the rooms on that level. On the rare occasion you... More

So far travelling on spec is working fabulously. We found this hotel while driving around Perth and its everything we could have asked for. Really interesting architecture - dating back to 1773. (With numerous renos since then). Lots of atmosphere. Very comfortable rooms with ensuite. Good beds. Great Scottish decor. Loads of history. And a real Scottish High Tea which... More

Thank you for your lovely comments on The Royal George, it certainly has amassed a lot of history over the 230 years it has been trading! I hope you managed to have a look at The Royal Warrant awarded to the... More

Stayed in Feb 2012 and on the face of it the hotel is very nice. Excellent staff on reception, in the bars and waiting on. Nice roomy bar area and pleasant surroundings. Very spacious bedroom and smart ensuite Parking was difficult but that could be lived with. Unfortunately the only let down was being ucomfortable in bed. I had a... More

Great to have an old fashioned Sunday high tea.Good choice on menu then scones on a cake stand with fresh cream meringues and as much tea or coffee as you like.Lovely views looking over the River Tay while having your high tea, served by very well dressed staff. Very reasonably priced and good value for money. Would advise booking on... More
