Honestly the cleanest hotel I’ve ever stayed in. A lovely atmosphere and feel about the place. Breakfast was excellent. The view of the sea in the morning just made it.

This hotel was a 5 star boutique hotel, with the best staff, the most amazing food, and a great new and wonderful designed layout. I can recommend any one to go and stay. It’s also in a stunning location right on the Harbour. I will certainly go back again.

I had a lovely stay at the Shore Hotel in Balintore — the location is beautiful with a peaceful view over the harbour, and my room was immaculate, comfortable, and felt freshly renovated. Everything throughout the hotel was spotless and well cared for, and the whole place has a calm, welcoming atmosphere. Breakfast in the morning was really nice too — simple, tasty, and a perfect start before heading out to explore the coast. A very clean, friendly hotel in a gorgeous setting, and I’d happily stay again.

What a beautifully created small hotel with views to die for. The food, both dinner and breakfast could not be faulted. The staff really made sure we were well looked after. We will definitely be back. One very small suggestion. Due to the very clean and modern lines of the bar and restaurant sound echoes can make it difficult to hear. As we have seen in other restaurants there is the easy solution of sound absorbing panels to mount to the walls/ceiling. These can even be printed with pictures to disguise their purpose and add local interest. Otherwise don't change a thing. It is so near perfect.

What a fabulous transformation! The work by JJ Vass & Sons is amazing. The Hotel has been transformed into somewhere really special. The bar & restaurant, including the outdoor seating, are first class. Gorgeous views over the harbour & towards Shandwick Bay. The public bathrooms are stunning too, with beautiful Arran Aromatics toiletries. Our room was beautiful, with a modern seaside feel. Bed was comfortable, the temperature perfect, the bathroom gorgeous. Everything spotlessly clean. Toiletries another lovely touch. One thing I would flag for the future is the beautiful cream carpets throughout the communal areas & bedrooms. They look amazing, but I did wonder how easy they will be to keep pristine long term. We were very conscious of our shoes after walking on the beach, and of course not every guest will remove theirs! Perhaps just something to keep an eye on as the hotel gets busier. We ate in the restaurant and were so impressed. Huge portions, great value and absolutely delicious. The best langoustines we have ever had! The lobster was fantastic, and the steak & lamb from Fearn Farm were fabulous. Everything fresh & cooked to perfection. Breakfast lovely too. Second morning service a little slower and cooked breakfasts arrived without the beans. They did arrive, but unfortunately after we had eaten. Hopefully these are taken as helpful pointers. Balintore has a special place in my heart and I wish the hotel every success. We loved our visit and can’t wait to return!
