Room was cleaned and tidied well, fresh towels every day. However, the room was very small, no a/c, no hairdryer, very dated, carpet badly frayed. Road noise affected sleep. Hot tub and sauna not working for the whole week, corridors grubby, decor dirty, carpets dirty. Went into the bar once at 10pm and it was shut. We were told they closed early because they werent busy but there were quite a few people drinking. One group told us that they had to double up on their order because the bar was closing. Nearly every time we walked in or out past the reception, we were ignored. Needless to say, we were disaappointed to be staying a whole week and wont be back!

Overnight stay

It was lovely, staff very helpful and friendly, bedroom was compact but comfortable and clean! Meal choice was fab, we ate from the Indian menu and it was terrific! Breakfast this morning was lovely too all freshly made, so nice! The waiter was so lovely he even made and brought me a speciality coffee, over to our table! Really nice touch! Our bedroom had a lovely view overlooking the water, gorgeous today as the sun was shining!

Stayed for one night, property could do with some updating and decorating here & there both inside and outside. A work in progress, but not unpleasant. If you want a 5 star hotel, go and stay in a 5 star hotel! The wall heater in my room was pointless, you'd get more heat from a single match, and the remote control for the tv was a bit worn out, otherwise room was clean and tidy, good hot shower. Staff were superb, pleasant, very friendly & helpful, Good bar, & a good breakfast selection available.

Grand Hovel

This old girl is long past her prime. I can imagine back in the day she would have been a grand hotel, nicely located next to the Loch, but today she is a run down hovel managed by rude idiots. The carpets are threadbare, the furniture is threadbare, the place is filthy and I slept in my clothes as I did not want to risk the beds. The fire alarm went off twice during the night and the staff did not know how to manage the process or how to reset the fire doors, which remained activated the following day. After realising the answer to everything was 'No' I stoped asking for things a normal hotel would offer. If you get this at a bargain price and you have your own sleeping bag, then it could work for you like a hostel, but we paid top dollar and it was a repulsive experience.

Good value hotel

Booked as an add on to initially a single overnight stay. The staff were very accommodating in moving the 2 bookings together to save the need to check out and back in again. Good value for money, great location, good restaurant and nearby amenities and very attentive staff.

Great location, service and value.

I have used this location as a base a few times. I have stayed in a few hotels in this area and for the money, this is one of the better choices in terms of standard, service and help from the staff. I will continue to use this hotel, should I ever want the same area as a base.

Overall the hotel was off a good standard and the meals served were very tasty and good portions. However I couldn't get the shower to produce hot water which was disappointing so I ran the bath which did magically produce hot water. One to investigate. Also the parking wasn't ideal. On the Saturday afternoon I arrived back at the hotel and there was one small space left to park. I was advised by a member of staff that it was that space or find a public car park elsewhere and pay for parking tickets until the next day. Pretty poor I think.

We booked room 57 with loch view. Outside of hotel looks run down but the view across the loch was amazing and the same out of the room window. corridors quite dark and carpets dirty. There was no lift and it was up and down stairs to get to the room. Room was ok on the surface but could do with a deep clean. Pillows were lumpy and you only got one and quilt far too big for bed. Could have bigger beds to offer but ours was a small double so overall did not sleep well. Had to take pillow down and ask for two new ones. No hair dryer in room but you can get one from reception. I’d advise to take your own. House keeping cupboards when left open could do with a good clean and a bit of organisation. Overall pleasant staff but hotel does need a good spruce up in places. A really nice pub with garden on the loch across the road and down a bit and the food was quality. There is also a little convenience store. Would I stay here again? Probably not I’m afraid and I’m not one to leave reviews usually

The property,was clean and bright in the foyer. The staff, were a mixed bunch, all were perfectly amenable when you asked for something, unfortunately it could sometime take several tries for this to happen. I had to send some food back. I was offered another meal, but refused as i was put off by then. I was given a glass of wine in compensation. We asked for a dog friendly room, and were told that we would have to eat our breakfast in the bar, were informed to tell staff that morning, again a poor member of staff on his third day was confused by my questions and asking for a tray. The room we thought was more of a single than a double with room for a pet, the dressing table and chair were wedged up against the bed and there was no storage. The toilet door had a missing chun from it and the shower dial was poorly fixed in a hole in the wall. By the time I left just wanted to go home. In closing the staff tried their very best. I was disappointed
Toilet wedged into bathroom I was not able to sit straight on toilet
Bed table and seat wedged together
Shower dial. No proper housing, wobbled when turned
