Good size room, helpful staff. Comfortable accommodations in the very nice town of Elgin. We selected Sunninghill for it’s proximity to speyside distilleries, but Elgin is worthy of of visit on its own with its enchanting ruined 13th century cathedral, a castle, the home of the luxury cashmere company Johnston’s of Elgin, and an easy drive to Inverness or the coast. Beautiful scenery in every direction. There are plenty of similar hotels and B and Bs throughout the area. Sunninghill is a solid choice, not a luxury experience but comfortable and friendly. The restaurant has decent fare and a broad menu. Breakfast is also available. Rooms could benefit from a bit more updating and a bit nicer amenities, for example a coffee maker instead of just instant coffee with a tea kettle. A few additional details would elevate the experience.

Friendly staff and comfy bed. But stains on the two chairs in the room, couldn’t open the window very far on a hot (for Scotland) day, and rust multiple places in the bathroom. Bathroom as a whole felt like it needed an update.

The rooms are clean and have everything you need but are not 5 star but then neither is the price. Breakfast is freshly made for you and of good quality and well cooked.
Would definitely return to stay again.

Fabulous hotel. Staff was attentive and friendly. Restaurant was fantastic and the bartenders, Alister and Jonathan were incredibly knowledgeable regarding local whiskys and great conversationalists. The room was newly remodeled, super clean and comfortable, with a hot shower with great water pressure and a nice bathtub. Highly recommended if staying in Elgin.

Great dining experience and the staff were excellent. However, the room was a little cramped. En suite was tiny and the sink was in the actual bedroom as not enough room in to accommodate it in the en suite. The room wasn't worth the £106 I paid for it. I was expecting more after checking it out online first..

Nice hotel in nice Scottish town

The hotel was clean and quite modern and the staff were attentive and helpful. I think due to the age of the building the walls seemed to be quite this so i could hear the TV from the adjoining room along with conversations and shouting. Also the room above was occupied and you could clearly hear them moving around. Despite this i enjoyed my stay and would recommend the hotel to other travellers
