Hotel doing a good job with coach parties making it busy

Unremarkable in as much as everything was as I would have expected. Staff that I met were all friendly and helpful.
3-night trip

8/10

I’ve had multiple stays here and it’s clean, welcoming and quiet, with good parking and comfortable rooms. Dining available onsite or nearby. Tour buses call in the summer but visitors are mainly elderly and calm. There’s sometimes hoochter-teuchtar or country and western music on in the foyer in the evening but if that’s not your thing, you can retreat to the quiet of your room or have a peaceful stroll in the village. Reasonably priced.

Was upgraded following an issue with the toilet. The staff were lovely and very helpful. Breakfast was really good.

6/10

The stay was for one night, check-in was smooth. We had booked family room 1 double bed and 1 single bed. But we got 3 single beds. The little was not happy sleeping alone and kept falling of the bed as there were no barriers. Spring beds are very uncomfortable. The room was spacious and old mansion kind. Single glazing windows.

Property needed some investment. Staff were excellent. Meal was good. Would have liked a little more choice for evening meal. Generally good value a pleasant stay
1-night trip

8/10

A very good mid-range hotel with adequate parking, comfortable, quiet rooms and friendly, helpful staff. If looking for an evening meal, book ahead. There are busloads of visitors at this time of year, and management seem to have difficulty fitting in one extra traveller at teatime.

Had a great 1 night stay. Have stayed here a few times before but this was the nicest room. Had recently been done up with new carpet. Wasn’t the biggest room but was lovely. Lovely little town. Didn’t have breakfast this time. Will definitely be back. Staff friendly.

The staff are friendly. Dinning room service great, and food good. Building and rooms in need of some refurbishment. Good location.

Man at reception desk was more interested in getting himself a drink of water after he saw us, than booking us into the hotel. No toilet roll holder. Pull cord in bathroom filthy. No extractor fan. Dirty shower hose.
1-night trip

6/10

Over all the stay was fine on entering the hotel it is lovely but once we got to the first floor and then to our room it went down hill from there. Its a bit outdated and the room is in need of a massive over haul to freshing it up, as the paintwork was all marked on all walls and the shower head was mouldy. Plus side the bed was comfortably and room was clean apart from the marked walls and mouldy shower head The room was very hot but the receptionist was happy to supply us with a fan which did help. Was rudely woken in the morning with the fire alarm going off ( no emergency) at 8am so we got up and just left to head home.

What was once a grand hotel in its hey-day, it is now very tired, e.g. peeling paint, water stains on bedroom ceiling, etc. Very limited menu selection for evening meal, but food was the hotel's only saving grace. Everything else, sadly, had a Fawlty Towers vibe to it. The hotel needs a lot of investment and a complete overhaul of its staff training programme.

Lovely place, been before, totally different this time, a couple of staff really rude, cleanliness is not great, carpet dirty, lots of cobwebs on inside of windows, hardly any alcohol on tap as staff said theyve not had an order from Easter, shocked to see the manager still there, after stories.

Beautiful old hotel. I arrived to a beautiful old hotel lodge lobby. It’s lined with fantastic old pinewood panelled walls. The staircase was also quite nice to look at. The staff were very friendly and parking was easy. My room was clean, nice and warm. Good hot water pressure, comfortable bed and it was quiet at night. I used the Highland Hotel as a base to drive around the Upper Highlands for a few days. Definitely a great pick. I didn’t eat or drink at the Hotel, but the bar looked good with plenty of comfortable places to sit. I had a nice stay. 👍
