Disliked: Amenities
We were in a family room with absolutely no view. The property is good only if you get a Loch view room. The receptionist argued that we were getting what was booked, but the point was there was no option when we booked. Property should make amendment in their room choices on the common booking portals, which people choose.

Nice location, very close to Loch Ness, 15 minutes from Inverness. Good room and bed, not so quiet in the hallway with an old smell. Not cheap in August. Recommend staying.

Great Scottish hotel

Very good for a 3 star hotel, we had loch view rooms with an unbeatable view. Breakfast was also excellent, with large buffet selection, plus cooked to order hot breakfast or pancakes. And fab coffee. Staff were all welcoming, helpful and friendly. A great stay.

The room was clean. Small but fine that way. Well laid out. Had to wait to leave as tour buses came in and blocked in my car, took over the restaurant and made it difficult to leave. But otherwise it was good

Average overall - but not bad.

Great location, unfortunately the shower was terrible and after a long drive north a shower is always welcome. But, the trickle from the shower head was not a welcome sight. It was reported but we arrived late and nothing could be done. Then at dinner we waited 10 minutes for a menu to be given and eventually had to ask the barman for one. Other than that the hotel is a great location by the loch, etc. Hence the average rating for comfort.

It's a beautiful spot, the staff are great (especially Conny) and property is very unique. It's got a very charming feel and overall I would say excellent value for the money. My only complaint is the bed was too firm for me, but that's a preference not a knock on the property. Would stay again for sure.
