Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers spacious rooms with its own direct access to the outside, boasting big comfortable beds. While the service was excellent with top-notch housekeeping, the location allows easy access to the Loch for cruises. However, a private function on the first night limited access to the Loch. The included dining options like gourmet sandwiches were a nice touch, but the facilities could be improved. Overall, a comfortable stay with some minor limitations.
The hotel offers a unique experience with its direct access to outside from the room and two bathrooms, although the outside access could be a bit inconvenient. The service was impeccable from housekeeping. The location is superb, especially for train and cruise access, even though private functions can impact dining options. The dining serves delectable homemade local products. Overall, a good value for money stay.
The hotel has direct access to the outside from the rooms, providing a unique experience. While the tea service is a lovely touch, the bedroom finishing could be improved. The hotel offers great value for money for the provided amenities.
