Cannot fault the staff in the hotel, especially Diane in the restaurant who was extremely gelpful and very pleasant to talk to. However, we though the restaurant was quite expensive (£10 for soup and £24 for the cheeseboard) ! The WiFi was virtually non existent which meant that we couldn't waitch the TV (only 1 channel would work). The room was OK but was disappointed to see the top frame of the door missing. At £200 a night I did not consider the sta value for money.

A very beautiful place to stay in the Scottish Highlands. The manager was very kind and took care of us in the middle of the night when we arrived very late. He left all the necessary information and the keys at the front desk, so we could enter the room without any problems. Will recommend this place.

A wonderful and delightful hotel, they are in the process of updating the establishment. I am confident that once everything is completed, it will be better than when we stayed. If you’re looking for a nice night sleep, and food. The restaurant was beautiful and the food was scrumptious. Oh my, almost forgot add the breath taking view.I would highly recommend this hotel.

Very nice hotel

Hotel was really nice we booked last minute and the views near by are amazing Gent on reception/bar/kitchen was really polite and helpful as he was there on his own because of holiday season Internet was down due to a bad storm that made the stay more remote as civilisation and home comforts were almost 1.5 hours away Don’t let that put you off when fully staffed and WiFi working I can only imagine the stay would be even better
