This property is 160 years old so you have to expect that not everything will be great. There is a small parking lot which was full. Your parking choices are on the street or at a historic jail which is in back of the hotel. There is no elevator. Our room was spacious with a king bed and a sofa and chair. The bathroom was very large with a jacuzzi tub and shower. It is located in a very small village which closes down around 5 so there was little noise at night. Breakfast was included and it was wonderful. Inveraray Castle is 5 minutes away and a must see if you like to tour castles.

Great Inveraray hotel

Lovely 1-night stay at The George on our Scotland road trip. Very friendly and helpful staff. The Loch Fyne langoustines for dinner were amazing. Breakfast was also very good, and obviously cooked fresh for each order. Would have happily stayed longer!

The staff at the bar restaurant were rude not allowing us to seat at the bar for a drink unless we were having dinner there … it was thanks to the skill and kindness of receptionist Ruth that finally we got it… the place has great atmosphere but it is not matched by the whole look of it , like no owner is looking after it any longer. The recepionists were extremely kind at the accueil.

Great stay, not a busy place to see

Was a good place to stay. Not sure it’s a place to stop over without purpose. Not a lot to do in the town overnight.

The George 11 & 12 July 2025.

The Hotel was probably one of the oldest we have ever stayed at. Considering this we found everything to work adequately. The hot and cold taps in the en-suite were not per the usual, the hot tap being on the lhs? The shower head had little flow and took a little bit of twiddling to get to an adequate temperature. The food was quite expensive and did not live up to the cost.
