The continental breakfast delivered to rooms was not exciting and some found it expensive. Plastic waste from breakfast items such as juice bottles was also an issue for some guests.

Overall, the breakfast options were deemed basic and lacking in variety.

Dinner
Guests at the Hilton Grand Vacations Club Craigendarroch Suites Scotland have mixed feelings about the hotel's dinner options. While some enjoyed delicious evening meals in the restaurant, others were disappointed with the limited menu and poor food quality. Some guests had to settle for takeaway food only due to the lack of sit-down options and long waits for takeaway made the dining experience less enjoyable. The inconsistency of the food quality within the restaurant is also noted in the reviews. However, some guests still thought that the food they had was good, particularly the fish and chips. Those who managed to get a booking in the restaurant were treated to really good food, which was enjoyed in the evening. Unfortunately, the main restaurant was not open and booking a table was a challenge for some guests with the restaurant being fully booked over three days in advance.

Spa
