Fairly average hotel for price and location in the highlands. Stings that you can get twice the quality for half the price anywhere else, but this is the highland tourist economy for you. Staff are friendly, but rooms are cramped and noisy. Floorboards will make even the lightest person sound like a herd of elephants above you.

The room was accommodating for our purposes, comfortable and clean. Only quirk was the lighting for the washroom. Our room, No.307, had an ante-room between the sleeping area and the washroom that illuminated when the washroom light was turned on. That room could do with separate lighting so that lights do not disturb the person sleeping.

Cosy & welcoming in a great location.

Cosy and welcoming hotel. In a fabulous location near the harbour. The staff were friendly and helpful and the bistro was well run with good food. Our room was on the top floor with no lift which wasn’t an issue for us but could be for some. The room was lovely with a spacious bathroom. The mattress was a little soft for me but that’s just personal taste. Would definitely stay again.

Hotel was excellent, clean, looks like quite recently done up. Staff all very friendly and helpful. No lifts, but staff offered to carry luggage to room. Food in restaurant was delicious and very reasonable. It was actually cheaper eating in Hotel than other places round about. Still high season at end of September. Was a bit dissapointed in breakfast cereal choice, as all i could find was cereal boxes. Last morning after breakfast, I found granola in a high up, top wooden bowl, with dried fruit, next to fruit juices! I'm too short to see into the top bowl! Good choice cooked breakfast.
