"Great place to stay. We stayed in a Mongolian yurt, which was a unique experience, like glamping. The owners are wonderful people who prepared a 5-star breakfast for our family and complemented it with friendly conversation. Overall, it's a great place for people who want to escape soulless hotel chains and create sweet memories."

Our host, John was friendly and welcoming, with great local knowledge, and served up excellent cooked breakfasts. Inverardran was an excellent base for a short break in the west central Highlands, with good road connections to many areas of interest.
I would have no hesitiation in recommending this guest house, and would be pleased to return.

Arrive early to find ski lifts were closed. We had a lovely breakfast and were given our rooms early. Staff were all very helpful and couldn't do enough for us. We had a lovely dinner just next to the bar area which had a very friendly , cosy atmosphere. Would definitely stay again. Deluxe rooms well worth the extra cost.

An excellent small hotel in a rather grand Victorian house on the main road in Callendar. Easy walk into town. Great base for exploring the Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park. Stunning scenery. Recommend going to Lock Katrine, it is beautiful. Loch Lomond was best on its east side, the west side is nearest Glasgow and attracts a lot of people in the summer. The nearby waterfall is worth the walk. The couple who run the hotel are friendly and helpful, and put on the best breakfast we has...

Booked a short notice overnight stay in one of the upgraded pods. It was very nice with a very nice location.
It was really quiet and peaceful.
We booked dinner in the restaurant and the staff wee attentive, accomodating and very polite. The food choice wasnt huge but the quality of the food was good. It was a little pricey for what it was but you are paying tourist hotel prices.
Overall we had a lovely time and would consider booking one of the larger cottages for a family event in the...

I booked this for a surprise birthday gift, my friend is from Norway and he absolutely loved it. It's like having your own private apartment, the room was spotless and cleaned every day. Good facilities, coffee machine, kettle with choices of tea, coffee and hot chocolate, small fridge in the room with two bottles of water, comfortable bed and the shower was fantastic. There's also an ironing board and iron and full toiletries in the bathroom. The staff in the Inn on Lochmond where we had...

Staff were amazing, great facilities. Food lovely. Liked the fact they had jugs of fresh water located at the front entrance and within relaxation room unlike most hotels who would push a sale on bottled water. Relaxed atmosphere great rooms with arran aromatic after the rain toiletries.. Bliss 💕

The room was very clean, and a 5 star review for all the little extras/ little touches.
A little jar of oat milk in the fridge was appreciated for my teas/coffees and also being vegan there was biscuits I could eat. The bed was comfy, and the location is lovely - lovely views of the loch and great location for local hiking and the botanical gardens.
The hosts were very welcoming and friendly.
The breakfasts were amazing - you choose your menu choices the night before so it’s cooked right on...

Comfy beds, lovely view from top-floor bedroom. Tasty breakfast of whatever we wanted. Hostess was great company and even kindly dropped us off at an event venue to pick up our car.

The Arrochar Hotel is delightful. The staff are all friendly and helpful, and the hotel has a homely feel. I was surprised that several residents had dogs with them, so it's a dog friendly hotel. The lounge and bar area is cosy. One can choose to eat dinner in the lounge area near the bar, or in the dining room. Our room was spacious and had a lovely view over the lake. We really enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful lochside setting with a range of seating areas and fire pit available. Very dog friendly with towels, toys and biscuits provided. All public areas are spacious which means social distancing is possible without everyone resorting to masks. Management are very friendly and keen to make your stay enjoyable.

While on a road trip through Scotland, my friends and I booked a room at this hotel, and we were SO PLEASED!! We stayed in Chalets 5 and 6 (members of the Beatles stayed in Chalets 1 and 6 once in 1964) and were really comfortable with lots of privacy and a FABULOUS view of the loch across the street. Breakfast was included in the price and was superb. I'm planning on bringing some family on a Scotland trip soon, and I've already decided we will be staying at The Four Seasons!!
