“The only distinctively titled hotel I know of,

is the Salutation at Perth”.

– Lawrie Tod.

“here is a large hotel in Perth called the ‘Salutation’-

a good name.

Here, it is said,

Prince Charlie held his headquarters during the ’45’.

It is a good hotel,

a friendly and charming hotel”

author of “In Search of Scotland”

“The Salutation Hotel in South Street

was there when Prince Charlie

came to Perth in 1745,

and contains the room where he lay.

Its spacious dining room,

with the great high-arched window

and musician’s gallery,

is worth seeing.”

– J. J. Bell,

“The Glory of Scotland”
