We had a lovely stay, the restaurant and breakfast room were excellent. Bobby's coffee bar were was a bit overpriced for a scone, nearly £5 and it wasn't fresh so choose more wisely as there were lovely cakes on display. Our bed was a bit too firm for our liking, no give at all. Aside from that we thoroughly enjoyed.

Outstanding friendly staff. Recommended I stop by the Falls of Fallach and recommended a restaurant at my next stop, Oban. Both recommendations were spot on and are among the more outstanding memories of my visit to the area. Thanks!

The check in was the best past of our stay. Cosy lit up reception. Rooms below average. I phoned ahead to reauest room in quiet part of hotel. My room was next to the front door. Sound proofing non existant. Constant doors banging. Televions on all night. Can hear conversations from other rooms.. Our door was tried several times during the night. Felt unsafe. No one around at reception. Extremely noisy. Had 2 hour sleep in 2 nights. Feeling ill leaving this place. Would NEVER recommend. A waste of 2 days of my life! Exhausted.
