The room was horrible! It smelt of old socks and mould. The lady at the check in was incredibly positive and kind as she was describing her 5 star continental breakfast which was mainly cheap white toast and yogurt. On the first night they said they could not serve us as there was a party of 50 people in room next door so all we had was a lemonade for dinner. When we got to the bar we were greeted by a grumpy old man who just grunted at us.
A lovely place! The hotel has a great warm atmosphere, the staff is really nice, the food is really well prepared and tasty! Keep in mind it is an old building, but this gives it an additional charm. I recommend this place and I would come back here 100%.
Booked the hotel expecting a cute and quaint place to stay. The overall hotel in the public areas was very clean. The breakfast had great options! The staff were also friendly. It’s located right next door to Nessie land, which would be super convenient for families! The rooms left much to be desired. We stayed in the orchard wing. The showers were basically unusable, dramatically changing temperature from scalding hot to freezing cold on its own and dropping water pressure to only a dribble. There was mold in places in the room, and wall finishing a falling down. The hotel was booked full due to a tour bus coming through, so the shower issues may have been from the full bus of young adults all showering at the same time? Either way, would have rather spent a bit more for a hotel or B&B nearby that had a working shower. The restaurant needs reservations for dinner. When we arrived at the hotel and checked in around 7:00pmish, the restaurant had already been booked full.
Our family traveled to Scotland and wanted to see the highland mountains. The Loch Ness lodge was a perfect middle spot. The service and food was amazing. The hotel is older, but very cozy. The rooms were clean and very comfortable. We enjoyed relaxing in the restaurant and the staff was very helpful when our car got a flat.
This is a little gem. Yes it’s not a 5 star hotel, so don’t turn up expecting one like some other reviews. The staff are helpful and the owner at a grand age is behind the bar with his wife helping along. Proper dedication. The food is lovely. Breakfast is excellent! So just take the hotel for what it is and you’ll love it!
