The hotel had modern facilities and a cozy pub, perfect for relaxing after a day of activities. However, soundproofing could be better to enhance the overall stay.

My one night stay at the hotel was lovely overall. The rooms were spacious enough, with a wardrobe and drawers for storage, and the ensuite was well presented with excellent shower pressure. However, accessing the rooms required navigating stairs due to the lift location. The service for my wife's gluten-free diet was very pleasant and helpful, although I wish they would start using salt and pepper when cooking. The location was ideal for exploring the highlands of Scotland, with friendly and accommodating staff. The dining experience was friendly and helpful, although the food was a bit ordinary and lacked a ground coffee choice. The hotel is clean, comfortable, and a great base for touring the area.
