Have been going to the Hydro for over 20 years now and sadly have seen it decline. The hotel is now part of a group that owns several properties and it appears that management is spreading itself a bit thin.The hotel itself is very pleasant - my elderly mother enjoys looking over the front green from the cafe - though some parts appear a bit tired. On each time (3 to be precise) in recent years, I've treated my mother to a stay, there have beem complications. On one occasion, I'd booked a room and spa treatment for her. Room was fine however the spa treatment had been pencilled in for the sister hotel in Crieff! The family room I was given a couple of years ago was very cramped - extra beds squeezed into a standard double room.However, because of the pool and the cafe, I intended to take the family there for an important birthday next yeat. Eight people over 3 or 4 rooms. However, it now appears that the Hydro only accepts bookings for TWO nights. This is not convenient for us and obviously makes it very expensive. Needless to say, we are going to another hotel nearby.Further to that is the news that the Hyrdo management company has been underpaying staff and was condemned by the HMRC. Not good.
