Advantages: Location, history, friendly owners Disadvantages: Not open in winter
This review of the Pannanich WellsHotel is a more brief history of the place than a review. I know the owners & it wouldn?t be an impartial review if I was to write about the hotel.
The history of the place is interesting as is the location of the nearest town called Ballater.
PANNANICH WELLSHOTEL
Ballater has become famous for its royal connections (more about that later) but long before Queen Victoria came to the area it was made famous as being another British spa town, providing water that healed. It still runs today from the Pannanich Wells on the east side, south of the River Dee.
It?s now bottled as Deeside water & sold around the world including in supermarkets such as Tesco & Sainsbury?s. It has become very popular recently after two independent tests confirmed that it really does have healing properties in ...

A few weeks ago we were lucky enough to have a wedding to go to in Wells, Somerset. I'd never been to Wells before and I was impressed with what a lovely place it was. Not only does it boast a beautiful cathedral, it also has a very impressive bishop's keep surrounded by a mote.
Prices and Booking
As the wedding was quite early in the morning we decided to go down the night before and stay in a hotel or a B&B so that we'd have time enough in the morning to get up and get ready. So we looked on the internet and it turned out that everything was pretty expensive.

The Bar Area
***************
This is situated at the front of the hotel, it is quite traditional in its decor and furnishing, as is most of the hotel, and has plenty of separate areas zoned out so you can sit and feel like you are in your own little space. It is quite a spacious bar area. The bar itself is just a straight bar about 15' long and is very well stocked.
There are also a couple of lounges off this area one of which goes into a sort of 'big bay window' which has very comfortable seating in it and lake views. This is a very nice room to enjoy an early evening drink before going out to dinner, a night cap on returning at night, or indeed a morning coffee with the paper.
