This was a nice comfortable hotel in a pretty location. Good proximity to the Glencoe area and many hiking trails. Food in the restaurant was good but the manager (Liam) seemed to be having a bad night and snapped at several customers.

Hotel was lovely however the restaurant service was poor, rushed and detracted from our stay. Would not dine in for dinner. The servers rushed customers to clear tables like a fast food restaurant.

Friendly and helpful staff. Lovely location with plenty of parking available. Breakfast was excellent. Room was clean and the bedroom cleaner was helpful and friendly. The floors are creaky in places as its a old building but this just adds to the charm.

Beautiful spot on Loch Leven

Amazing spot along Loch Leven in Scotland. I stayed here just a night on the road from Loch Lomond into the Highlands. This spot feels historic, without a doubt. There are sitting rooms with gorgeous decor, a wonderfully friendly staff, and a great restaurant. This is one of those spots where you can check in, and just enjoy the space and not worry much about feeling like you need to find food, etc… I spent time before dinner in one of the sitting areas, doing a little work. then enjoyed some fish and chips with fresh, smashed “mushy” peas. And in the morning their breakfast was expansive and filling. I wander along the water and took in views of the loch and bridge. I think if I’m through this part of Scotland again I’d book a room with a view. Definitely would want to stay here again.

A beautiful setting located right on Loch Linnhe/Loch Leven. We stayed for one night on a trip from Inverness to Glasgow. A perfect place to rest, relax and dine. Be prepared to carry your luggage up stairs to your room, no elevator available. The restaurant provided a great evening meal as well as a tasty breakfast buffet. Highly recommend this hotel!
