The staff were wonderful for our stay in Gairloch. We enjoyed our dinner and breakfast at the hotel, and our room was very comfortable. Being there at the end of the season had its limitations and the hotel is in need of some basic repairs.

Stayed with my son while we explored the Highlands and found the hotel to be an excellent base for us while we stayed in Gairloch. We were on foot so had no vehicle but the hotel has excellent parking facilities. Being situated right on the water-front the views were stunning and the beach provided a great place for a little after dinner walk. All the amenities you'd expect, we found the place to be warm and friendly. The rooms were clean and well presented. We'd be happy to come back here and stay again.

Property is tired and needs a lot of updating. Bed and bathroom were clean but very old fixtures and fitting such as carpets and chairs were not. Room had a stale smell and needed airing out. We had to sleep with the window open. There was peeling paint and a water stain from a leak in the room. Staff were trying there best but I wouldn’t stay again.

Liked: Staff & service
Perfectly serviceable mid-range highland hotel. Big Victorian building so a bit creaky and a bit old fashioned. Decor feels a bit tired and clearly a struggle to keep on top of minor maintenance in such a large building. Staff and service were good. The location is the main reason to go all that way, not the hotel itself. Would be fine to go back if I’m ever close by again.

Nice room with lovely view. Bed uncomfortable. Dinner was nice just shame there was nowhere comfortable to sit after. Needs more comfy chairs and better set up so can sit downstairs and take in the views.
