Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms are comfortable with a wonderful shower but the beds are quite hard. The service is good, although room service and housekeeping details were not specified. The location is beautiful and central to exploring the area, but the maze-like setup might be a bit confusing. The dining quality is decent, with piping hot food but subpar coffee. Overall, the hotel provides a cozy stay with some room for improvement in certain areas.
I had an incredible stay at this hotel! The rooms offer a stunning view over Ben Wyvis, and the staff is extremely friendly, creating a great atmosphere. The rooms are equipped with all necessary comforts, including a comfortable bed and high ceilings.
The hotel is situated on a steep slope, offering a beautiful setting and being very close to the village center. The rooms are clean and recently updated, though the bed is a bit hard. The service is good overall, with room service and housekeeping provided. The dining experience is marred by bad cheap coffee, but the quality of food is decent. The facilities are adequate and provide a comfortable stay.
This hotel offers a fantastic experience with stunning mountain views from rooms kept spotless, but the coffee quality during dining was a letdown. The central location is ideal for exploring the area, but the steep slope may be a challenge for some visitors.
The hotel is situated on a steep slope offering stunning views. The rooms, while a bit dated, provide a supposed garden view with a heater. The service was attentive, including room service, housekeeping, and a welcome drink. The location on the hillside brings natural beauty but access to dining may require reservations. Dining options offer included hot dishes but the coffee quality is lacking. The facilities include a mini cinema and a conservatory overlooking the hillside.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The room with a king bed and high ceilings offered a stunning view over Ben Wyvis. The staff was very friendly, creating a great atmosphere. However, even without the radiators on, it was cozy. The location on a steep slope added a unique touch, making it easy to find various dinner options in the Square.
The hotel offers a wonderful shower experience in the ensuite rooms with a great view, but the bed was uncomfortably hard. The hotel's location on a hillside is stunning, but the steep slope might pose challenges. The dining experience includes hot food with hot plates, but the quality might not meet expectations. Overall, a comfortable stay with some room for improvement.
