Liked: Free parking. Lovely staff, genuinely friendly. Really good breakfasts; best haggis I had in Scotland. Such a nice change to get table service breakfast rather than the usual grim offerings of hotel hotplates. The standard dinner menu was exceptionally good. Most hotels don't do proper curtains or blinds to stop light getting in but The Station Hotel was the exception. This is particularly pertinent when the sunrise is so early during the Scottish summers. Having stayed at 5 different hotels in the space of a week this was easily the best. Great decoration throughout which reflected local tradition with copper making and distilleries. Family ownership makes such a difference whereas Private Equity ownership leaves you feeling ripped off in the typical hotel chain.
Disliked: There was very little airflow and as it was a ground floor room the window wouldn't open fully so it was very hot and stuffy. It wasn't possible to open the high velux windows which would have made the airflow much better. There was a tap which wouldn't close but being the weekend they couldn't get a plumber to fix it. Not convinced by the taster menu, but the standard menu the next night made up for it.

Disliked: All good here.

Clean, comfortable, food excellent, and...

Liked: Late emergency booking and staff were most friendly and understanding. Evening menu short but varied and very good. Breakfast options were excellent. Ideal spot when working in the area.
Disliked: Single rooms are a little small for speading out computers for working but in an old building this is unavoidable. Mismatch between chair and table unit height made working a strain. Irritating hum from external ventilator/extractor. Had to close window on hot night. Again probably unavoidable but maybe a fan in the roon would be welcome.
