The location is stunning, looking at the mountains and a stream. Reece and staff in the restaurant were fantastic and very accommodating. The carpets in the halls and stairwells were a bit dirty, but everything else was tidy and comfortable.

We did not get the room we booked (Prime King) and instead got an older queen room. When we asked about moving, the only option was a twin room. Our room was extremely dusty and did not feel clean. The room felt moldy. The shampoo appeared to be a combination of the body wash and conditioner and made our hair oily. The staff was friendly. Overall, they seem understaffed and doing the best they could. The restaurant was also not good due to understaffing issues and the bar had no food service on our last night due to a food shortage.

Amazing scenery around the hotel. Rooms are nicely decorated but our sheets smelled either used or musty. Staff is great. Make sure you call ahead of time if you are arriving late because no one is at the front desk after a certain time and the doors are locked. We were locked out for about 30 minutes before someone came to our rescue. Staff is amazing and the rooms are cozy. I would stay here again for sure!!!

Beautiful property and stunning location. Staff were amazingly attentive and friendly. Dinner and breakfast were nice. Our only gripe was the cleanliness - our bedding had quite a lot of glitter on and the floors in the room/bathroom had hair on. More generally, the carpets throughout the hotel, bar and breakfast room felt like they need to be renewed.

This hotel is very old but the rooms are updated. No complaints. Our room was very good size. But the roads are quite narrow and lots of potholes - we ended up with two flats. Towns are about 15 each way and if you come after season the Seauman (sp?) next door is closed which is said to have a great whisky selection.

Room and staff were both very nice. As a hotel it's nicely located and a reasonable value. Parking is ample and the setting is great. Unfortunately they're very short staffed in regards to the restaurant on-property and the service & food suffer as a result.

This location was a convenient stop after touring Isle of Skye. The food in the restaurant was just ok with the exception of the Sticky Toffee Pudding which was excellent! Service in the restaurant was a bit slow at dinner. The room was very spacious and had modern amenities. Beautiful view from our room.

Great location but there has been cost cutting and it shows - particularly in the food. It used to be pretty decent, an important consideration for people going into the hills but recently it’s cheap “pub grub”. Disappointing,
