The property is in need of updating. The mattress was poor quality and obviously past its best as was the bed linen. No breakfast on site and the cafe recommended with discount was not open. We weren't provided with a key so if you go out late or early you can't get back in. I booked table, two emails and a telephone conversation to confirm yet they seemed unaware. Card machine 'not working' so paid cash for the meal the following day where they tried to charge for the accommodation again despite being paid in full on booking through expedia. Nobody around on departure. It all feels a bit run down and disorganised despite the staff being pleasant. Mean on loo rolls for a two night stay...had to ask for more. An over all feeling of confusion.

We had an wonderful stay at the hotel. Very helpful and friendly staff willing to assist in the best possible way. Very good size room with great views of the hills. Nice pub and the restaurant served authetic (5 stars for that) Indian food, Chef Vinod was brilliant. Excellent location for a stop over if heading to highland. Will be returning for sure.

Great people, friendly and helpful. The room was clean, the shower was terrible. Being a mix of hotel amd Indian restaurant our room constantly smelt of the food which was not good. If they had better extraction from the kitchen this may not have been the case. When leaving there was no key drop box so spent a while trying to find a safe space to leave key. Good one night stay hotel in my opinion.

Cheers!!!
Truly a great experience. Nice room, great little bar and restaurant, and wonderful super service. Perfect location in downtown Callander. A picture perfect small Scottish village with fantastic outdoor activities. In all fairness the bar was a bit noisy until around midnight and did effect our sleep on a Saturday night. Sunday night was not a problem at all. Breakfast was excellent with outstanding service. Hope to return to Callander soon and and to The Crags Hotel!

Sleepless in Callandar!
We enjoyed the breakfast and Fiona and her staff were really friendly and our room was a good size and was clean. The downside was the room had no views and unfortunately we had two sleepless / restless nights due to the very uncomfortable mattress and pillows along with really loud squeaky floor boards from the next door room!! There is a small busy bar at the front of the building which had a lovely fire but, the furnishings in there were very basic and there was' nt enough seats to go around.

Worth considering
Pleasant stay at this hotel. Staff very friendly and helpful. The room was a reasonable size. Small hotel in size and car parking limited, although we were fine. Good breakfast. Traditional 'Scottish' bar with lot of 'locals'. Two larger hotels in town seemed to have more of an international clientele. We stayed Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights and I was impressed that for a small town there was live entertainment (which I particularly like) somewhere in Callander each night, sometimes with a choice. Directions to the car park, which is at the back of the hotel, before arrival would have been helpful.

Breath of fresh Scottish air.
We have been to many Scottish (quaint) hotels and very often the work quaint equates to tired and over priced. So what a breath of good old Scottish fresh air. The hotel is clean, fresh and nicely decorated, good rooms well serviced. The staff are just the nicest people and most welcoming. Real value for money and a good laugh.
