The Glen Mhor Hotel and Uile-bheist Brewery & Distillery
6/10 Okay
"Rooms can be quite far from reception and if you are on the first or second floor , there is no lift for lugguages. Breakfast is served until 10am but at 9.30 they start taking away cutlery and glasses while you are still sitting. Quite annoying if you are just enjoying your coffee. Breakfast is below average, porridge not edible , scrambler eggs poor"
"Room was ok but stains on carpet and lamp. Poor lighting. Bathroom needs an upgrade. No private changing cubicles for the swimming pool, which was a concern when my 8 year old had to go into the mens changing room on his own. Food was excellent. "
"I have stayed many times at this hotel and this will probably be the last time.
I paid good money for a totally sleepless night and a very basic breakfast.
When booking, I specifically asked for a room at the front of the hotel. I do so regularly, as I know from past experience that rooms, particularly the low even numbers can be noisy, so I was disappointed when arrived and was told that I was allocated Room 102. I told reception that I had bad memories of room 102 as I had stayed there in the past and it is the noisiest room in the hotel; which was why I had requested a room at the front. Reception was very unhelpful, completely unsympathetic and simply said there was nothing they could do.
Room 102 lived up to my expectations, with unbearable loud noises from extractor fans and other machinery operating not far from the room window. I couldn't do any work because concentrating was impossible. I am a light sleeper - hence my request which was made when booking - and I couldn't get any sleep because of the constant racket from outside, which went on throughout the entire night.
Breakfast next morning was a lacklustre affair. No fruit salad, no fresh fruit, no fried eggs on offer and the other breakfast items were fewer than is usually available and they were very slow to be replenished when they ran down.
Check in the night before had been painfully slow and staff on reception were not helpful. I wouldn't want to go through this again and I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

"The service was wonderful. The staff helped arrange things like taxis and a horse ride and made sure I got breakfast before an early morning tour (excellent scones!). They were especially accommodating on my last day when I was taking a late train, allowing me to shower and have a place to hang out for a little while in the late afternoon. The common areas feel historic but comfortable and well kept. The rooms are mostly updated but if you want a historic feel, be sure to request it. Pretty much all the rooms are a little different. There’s a lovely walled garden onsite and I got selfies with the Highland cows in the neighboring field. Just know that if you don’t have a car, it’s about a £12-14 cab ride from town. "
