The hotel offers a room with a great super king bed, seating area, and balcony showcasing amazing views over the mountains and Loch Linnie, despite the room shape being long and thin with a small window at the top of the stairs. The service was helpful despite some moments of being unacceptable. The location, albeit a bit open, still provides amazing views and helpful staff. The dining experience, while self-service with stunning views, could be improved from being below par. The facilities were satisfactory.

The hotel had a spacious, comfortable, and well-appointed room but disappointedly assigned a different room than requested, with stained bedside lamps and dampness on the wall. The service was exceptional, with extremely friendly and helpful staff. The location with breathtaking views was perfect, though slightly overpriced. The dining experience was a mix of amazing meals and some frustration. The hotel offers laundry service, a welcome drink, and pet amenities.

The hotel boasts a wonderful view of Loch Linnhe from the rooms, which were spacious and well-appointed, although I did have to request a room change initially. The service was exceptional, especially when our child fell ill. The location offers spectacular views but can get congested with a full hotel.

The hotel has an amazing location overlooking the Loch with great walks nearby. However, the rooms share walls with the leisure center and can be unbearable at times. The staff is very welcoming and provides great service, but there are some improvements needed in certain areas. The dining experience is delicious with cooked options, and the facilities are well-maintained.

The rooms, aside from the missing bedside lamp and noisy glass plate, could be a horrible experience due to the constant noise. They share walls with the leisure center.

The location is amazing, overlooking the Loch with stunning views and good walks adjacent and nearby. However, some areas could look smarter, and the storage under the stairwell is unwelcoming.

I had a very enjoyable stay at the hotel. The rooms were good, had a nice view, and the breakfast was tasty. The staff was very polite and helpful, which added to the overall positive experience. However, the extractor fan running through the wall sounded like a trainer in a washing machine during mealtimes, which was a bit distracting.
