We arrived early evening and managed to get a meal in the restaurant. It was lovely and the staff were also. But when we went up to our room it was a different matter. While the room was adequate and clean the bathroom was discussing! The shower was not just moldy but rusted out. There was a soap dish attached to the wall, right above a dirty rust one that was hanging loose. No toilet roll holder, you had to twist around to get that, and you had to pump the handle to get the toilet to flush. The shower curtain couldn't slide accross, the fan didn't work, the door wouldn't slide shut but did flap open at the bottom and the water heater went from freezing cold to dangerously searing hot in a blink of an eye. And the heater in the room didn't work. When we went down to express out disappointment the lady on reception was very apologetic but couldn't help as they were fully booked and told us to talk to the manager in the morning. Morning came and we spoke to the manager who quite frankly couldn't care less, he didn't apologise he just said that he couldn't move us because they were full. When we asked for a refund he fobbed us of and said you'll have to ask WotIf. He didn't even offer us a free breakfast, which by the way was also discussing and not up to the standard of the night before. We will nevwr stay at a Bespoke Hotel again!

Great little find with good value for money. Hotel is old and dated but charming. Friendly helpful staff. Decent pint. Clean and warm and dry if you can avoid the drips from the ceiling in the bar. Breakfast is akin to what you'd get at a Hilton on most days. Bacon had seen better days but even the coffee machine did a decent latte. Would certainly recommend. A solid 7 out of 10 and with a bit of investment it could be an 8 or 9. Great wee find. So glad we stayed here instead of a beige chain at inverness airport.

Breakfast was included when I asked for gluten free cereal was told told there was none. The person I asked I understood to be in charge just walked away offering nothing else. Had to find another member of staff to see if there was G. F. bread for roast and explain I could not use the toaster if there was. If you have allergy s not the place to stay.

The room needed updating, new carpet and the bathroom area needed some mould removal. Comfortable beds and quiet. Parking was a struggle, recommend parking on the main road. Just to note our room area building had no lifts.

.Staff made the place. Great breakfast & Dinners.

Okay , yes the floors creak and its a bit old but the management and staff are fabulous. The hotel has a very welcoming feel about it . The food and beverages were reasonable priced and the breakfast and the three dinners I had were excellent quality and very tasty. My room was very clean upon arrival , my bed sadly was very hard and uncomfortable but you don't go to such a scenic area to snooze it all away. I will definitely return.,

It was awesome and grest experience to stay here.

When I drove my car to the hotel with beautiful scenery on both sides, still wasn't sure I could find the hotel. Finally I've got to the destination. Surprised to see the traditional and wonderful hotel. If you trip to take public transportation, not easy to stay here. Room was very clean and quiet, but not enough warm. It was a bit cold in April in highland.

Don’t bother staying at this hotel

This hotel is terribly out dated the furniture in the lounge and bar were very dirty to stage your hands stuck to the arms of the chair. Decor was in shocking state paint falling off and some bits not painted. Everything was covered in finger prints doors and lift. Shower door wasn’t even on the rails and didn’t shut sink was cracked and the size of the tv was a chock. This place needs to be gutted out a start again.
