Reviews and Ratings
I absolutely loved my stay at the hotel! The rooms were spacious with wide windows, offering a fantastic view of the peaceful hills. The atmosphere was lovely, bright, and airy. The service was top-notch with friendly and accommodating staff always going the extra mile. The location couldn't have been better, ideal for hill walks and accessing the beautiful Highlands. The dining experience was excellent, with plentiful options and delicious hand-cut steaks. The facilities were great, catering to all my needs. However, the Wi-Fi was not included, which was a downside.
The hotel is ideal for families exploring Loch Tulla and the surrounding areas. The rooms are in top quality condition, comfy, and the staff are very helpful. A welcome change from the traditional Scottish style, with new, light, airy designs and thoughtful amenities for walkers. However, the nearby seating can get damp in winter. I'd consider staying here again.
The hotel offers excellent rooms overlooking the river, though ensuite is rather small. The modern 'shed' rooms behind the main building are small but comfortable. The staff is friendly, and the location is great.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were cozy and well-equipped, with great drying facilities for wet gear. The location was superb, offering a peaceful atmosphere and easy access to beautiful walking trails. The staff were beyond friendly and helpful, making my experience even more enjoyable. However, the dining options were a bit lacking in variety, and the price for some accommodations seemed a bit steep. Overall, a wonderful place to relax and unwind.
The hotel has a strange automatic lighting system that we couldn't turn off, but the rooms were comfortable, warm, and clean with nice decorations. The staff were friendly and accommodating, always attentive and warm. The location is idyllic, although it may be overpriced for the standard of the room, ambience, and facilities. The dining experience was varying, with some dishes meeting expectations and others falling short. The facilities were adequate for a comfortable stay.
The hotel's location was ideal for outdoor activities, and the rooms, although initially clean, required more attention to detail for cleanliness. The service was friendly and accommodating, and the dining experience was outstanding. However, the lack of adjustable heating was a minor inconvenience.
My stay at the hotel was truly enjoyable. The rooms were cozy and well-equipped, offering a warm welcome with a nice selection of beverages. The exterior might not scream luxury, but the beds were so comfortable, and the bathtub was a treat for relaxing after a long day. The service was exceptional, exceeding my expectations with their support and friendliness, and they even offered a great discount. The location couldn't have been better, situated adjacent to the highland way with lovely views all around. The dining experience, although with some room for improvement, was decent overall. The facilities were modern and comfortable, making my stay quite pleasant.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were okay, although the main building looked a bit tired from the outside, but inside, it was lovely with a great view and very peaceful.

The location was spot on, perfect for hiking tours or visiting nearby hills, and the staff was very helpful and friendly.
