Testimonials
People have said some rather kind things about their Gleneagles event. Here is just a small selection.
“This is the second time in a year that I have run an event for my client's leadership team at Gleneagles, having made the recommendation to their CEO that the hotel was ideal for them. The fact that we returned speaks volumes for the quality and service at Gleneagles. I run these sorts of events in lovely hotels in a range of countries, and am proud that in the town where I live there is a venue that stacks up against the best in the world.
“So, my thanks to your staff, especially Fiona Pugh and her team, who prepared things so assiduously for our event and made sure all was in place. Thanks also to your ever-patient and courteous bar and restaurant staff, not least in the Cellars. Phil and his team of drivers gave us a fine time in the Land Rovers - thanks to them too.
“Last, but not least, thanks to your great chefs - we ate very well.
“Keep up the good work, it's a very competitive world out there, but there are many venues that cannot touch Gleneagles."

"This has been one of the best organised events I have ever hosted, we were well looked after on the day and my guests thoroughly enjoyed the experience. I will be booking this event again."

"Hard Rock International held their first EMEA Sales & Marketing Conference at Gleneagles and from our initial enquiry, right through to when we pulled away, our every want, need and concern was adhered to in the most excellent fashion!
Guests' rooms, conference facilities and extracurricular activities were all first class as was the service we received throughout our stay. Sales managers from all over Europe, Africa and the Far East attended this conference and were all wowed by the service of the staff and the friendly expertise that was shown at every event.
Our Event Manager, Maxine Mallin, was on hand the entire time we were there and nothing was too much trouble for her and her team. She assisted in everything single thing we asked for - we would like to hire her ourselves!
I would recommend Gleneagles unreservedly both for business or pleasure purposes - we just cannot wait to return.

"The luxury status of Gleneagles and its prestigious championship golf courses are synonymous with the world of Johnnie Walker Blue Label and made it the perfect setting to launch our partnership with Greg Norman.
We were very impressed by the adaptable event spaces, impeccable catering, stunning surroundings but mostly by the level of service. From the planning to the execution of the event, all the staff were incredibly accommodating and everything was done to a very high standard."
Samantha Durchslag, Global Head of PR,

"From my heart, a most sincere thank you to yourself and your team for a second-to-none service provided during our 3 week event at Gleneagles.
The professionalism, enthusiasm, support and impeccable service experienced during our occupation of the venue was right at the very top of world wide standards.
In all my years working in the event marketing communications industry I have not experienced such a continuous and positive level of commitment and service from such a dedicated team as the one headed up by yourself at the Gleneagles Hotel.
Please allow me to say a most sincere thank you to everyone at the Gleneagles Hotel.
It is largely due to the friendly, professional staff at the Gleneagles property that the feed back we have received from our client and guests attending the events at Gleneagles has been extremely positive indeed.
I hope that we will soon have an opportunity to work together again and recreate such an enormous success, at the point a suitable project presents itself I will not hesitate to be back in touch."
