We went in mid November on a very damp day, after hill walking. The host was welcoming, the hotel was warm, the shower was hot and sufficiently powerful. The bed very comfortable. We didn’t eat at the hotel, so we can’t comment about the food. We also couldn’t get on the Wi-Fi in our bedroom, but I think it worked in public areas. The bathroom was spotlessly clean but basic. All in all, the hotel was good value for what we paid.

Great stop on our way to the highlands, John and his staff are great, very personable accommodating. Really cool 400 year old inn, and the best part were the owner John and his staff

Great location, quaint, easy loading in and out, with a friendly staff... Check-in and out was simple, and we found the property as described. The hotel appeared to have some history, offering an authentic experience and comfortable stay in the Scottish Highlands.

Really lovely little hotel with the most friendly, helpful staff. They went out of their way to give me a ride back to Crianlarich when my bus didn't come. The food in the restaurant was excellent as well. Had a couple issues with the shower temperature in the room, but that was all. Highly recommend if you're looking for a quick stopover with good value for the price!

Family of 4 had a great stay at the Luib. John and Sue were great hosts in trying circumstances (two storms back to back in October) with no internet and mobile signal due to the inclement weather Room was clean, beds were nice and comfy. The property is 500 years old so don't expect shiny new things. It is a fantastic quirky old pub with uneven floors, creaky doors, and lots of character. Breakfast and dinner were both great and very tasty. The kids and wife loved the fish expertly prepared by John. Only downside was pressure and temperature and control on our shower but again there were mitigating circumstances with the weather, age and location of the property. Would definitely recommend.

Perfect stop on our way home from our holiday in the Highlands. Cozy bar area with an open fire and a lovely clean room.

This is a B&B in a 500-year old building in the countryside. This is not a hotel. Do not expect a hotel experience but an authentic country side B&B experience. The B&B is conveniently located if you are driving north or south when travelling through Scotland. The staff was friendly and the rooms were what you would expect. The two things worth noting for guests and the hotel staff are: 1. It was unclear that breakfast had to be pre-booked the night before. It makes sense since this is a B&B but since the staff won’t ask you make sure to mention it. 2. The water pressure in the showers is quite low and the quick heaters in the showers don’t give hot water for long. This would be a quick fix from the hotels side. Overall a proper country side experience I would recommend to anyone passing by.

This is a nice old hotel. They even upgraded our room for no reason. It is an old building, that’s part of the charm, but very well maintained and up to date furnishings. There’s a cozy restaurant down stairs and the grilled fish was very tasty.

A gem

The Luib hotel is a gem in a beautiful location. The fish we had for dinner were superb, and the breakfast was exceptional but what made our stay extra special was the friendliness and attentiveness of the staff. Would definitely stay again.

The hotel had an attached lot for convenient parking and a restaurant on site. We had a delicious meal for dinner during our one night stay. The hosts were friendly and helpful. The bed was comfortable. The bathroom could’ve been a bit cleaner.

Being Scotland, places can be old and that is the charm. The Inn could use some lights in the hallways for night time, but the beds were comfortable, it was quiet at night and there are beautiful fields behind it. The cook had been sick for a while, so the nice lady that checked us in suggested the Courie Inn in Killin, which was excellent. Killin is a great town about a 5-10 min drive away with a gorgeous river and really lovely places to eat, stay and even an old castle.
Verified review

2/10 Poor

Beautiful location and nice people. Owners said 10 pm was quite time but stayed up until 11:30 talking very loudly which kept us awake. Don’t eat there; small menu with mediocre food. Eat in Killin. The room had a cracked window with peeling paint. The inn needs a fair amount of up keep. Not worth the money.
Verified review

6/10 Good

The owners were kind and helpful at getting us checked in and showing us our rooms. The place was sufficient for our needs but not ideal. There were no outlets in our room that were reachable. We had to plug things in in the hallway. Our bedding was clean, but the extra pillows on the top of the cabinet did not have changed pillow cases and had hair on them.

My son and I spent one night here on May 2, 2025. It was an exhausting day because we were lied to and ripped off by Europcar. We couldn’t get any roadside assistance even though we paid extra for it Upon arrival at the Luib, we were met with understanding and caring. They have a small staff and a tough job. The owners are very successful people and have owned a number of businesses in Europe and now live in their hometown. I bonded with them and staff immediately. Some reviewers are upset that they were denied bathroom amenities. Sadly, I can see how some entitled people treat the Luib like it’s a public rest stop with free public amenities. That happens to them constantly. The Luib has so much character inside that you really do need to stop here. If not staying the night, go there in the evening for drinks, conversation and atmosphere. I was shown genuine kindness by the owners and hope to see them again next year. We were very satisfied with our stay and the ambience was priceless. Highly recommend.
