Stayed for 2 night on a business trip, hotel is very homely, rooms are lovely (both clean and comfortable). The owners/staff couldn’t do anymore for you. Food is to die for, both breakfast and main meal in the evening. Highly recommended if you’re looking for a place to stay or even just somewhere different for a delicious meal! Jules & Lloyd thank you so much for providing a unique & personal stay. read less

The rooms are comfortable, immaculate and well maintained. I booked a meal on my first and last night in their small restaurant and have to say both meals were delicious. The breakfasts were of high quality with a wide range of hot and cold items to choose from. A great base to explore this area of Scotland from with plenty of castles, lochs, beaches and countryside on your doorstep and only a short ride from the Cairngorms National Park. read less

morageckford10/24/2018Wow. Lobster to start was delicious. Venison perfectly cooked and well presented, was so tasty. Dessert was just delightful, chocolate mousse and honeycomb with ice cream. What a fantastic taste experience and brilliant service.

The owners were very attentive and extremely professional. There is a small bar with a goodly choice of drinks. The breakfast choice was very good and we opted for a cooked to order choice - delicious! There is an upmarket dinner restaurant which we didn't use as we were attending a function but we believe it has an excellent reputation read less

Man hat direkten Zugang Richtung Nelson‘s Tower. Die Zimmer und Bäder sind ortstypisch gut ausgestattet mit gutem WiFi und einer schnellen Anschlussleitung, guten Betten, weichen Hand- und Badetüchern und gutem UK TV. Da ein historisches Gebäude, sind Kompromisse im jeweiligen Modernisierungszustand einzelner Zimmer unabdingbar. Die Begrüßung war herzlich und der Service ist persönlich, unaufdringlich und freundlich. Das Frühstück ist umfangreich mit leckerem full Scottish Breakfast wie auch frischen Früchten, Säften etc. Selbst beim frisch zubereiteten Rührei wird nach der gewünschten Konsistenz gefragt. Eine klare Empfehlung für einen Besuch in Forres und Umgebung. read less

Breakfast was delicious each morning regardless of what we selected. We ate two dinners at the restaurant and were very impressed each time. Michelin star chefs from London should visit and remind themselves what cooking is about 🙂
Wonderful short stay. Many thanks to the owners for looking after us. read lessOlga S5/15/2018Cluny Bank Hotel, Forres A lovely hotel up a quiet side road.

The bar/ante-room was warm and comfortable with effortless attention to our drinks. There were 7 of us and everybody thoroughly enjoyed the beautifully cooked and presented food. As mentioned in another review, the desserts were carefully explained by the chef/owner and all were eaten to the last spoonful. A truly memorable occasion. read less

I'm glad I found the Cluny Bank and what a gem it is, fantastic facilities with a very homely feel. The Cluny Hotel is immaculate and my room was extremely comfortable with everything you need including free wifi to catch up on your emails and surf the net.
The owners Lloyd and Jules are extremely friendly and welcoming, It was a pleasure to spend time and talk with Lloyd during my stay and and I even got a tour around the Cluny Hotel. Lloyd is a very passionate chef and prepared some absolutely amazing food, breakfast set me up for the day and the long drive back to the North West.
I will definitely be returning and urge business and pleasure travellers to do the same.

Usually I use Hotel Chains because some independent Hotels can be hit or miss. NOT Cluny Bank. The room is warm, very comfortable and well decorated and furnished. The meal in the restaurant was excellent. Freshly cooked to order and very tasty. Been on the road for 30 years and this Hotel rates very highly on my scale. I will be back because there are other sweets I need to try. Well done read less

It describes itself as a restaurant with rooms. Our room met our needs but the food in the restaurant was outstanding.
Their covid planning was exemplary and they did everything you cope hope to make us feel very safe.
The standard of cooking was very high and the innovative way they narrated dessert options in a covid compliant way made our night.
Great option if staying in the Moray area. read lessBoondoggler9/27/2020Gute Unterkunft zwischen Inverness und Elgin ! Ein sehr gutes Frühstück in einer sehr guten Unterkunft.
