"Wonderful
But they allow smokers at the doorway
Walls very thin
Excellent value for the money
Lovely staff clean as a whistle
Breakfast was very nice
Thank you again!"
"We loved the view of the loch and harbour from our room! Great breakfast, comfortable bed and warm greeting upon arrival (with a welcome drink and snack). We stayed only the night before our ferry crossing to Lewis, but loved Ullapool. From the hotel, it was an easy walk to the town center with plenty of dining options. Unfortunately the next morning, we discovered that our rental car had been keyed in the parking lot. Despite this, a lovely town and highly recommended hotel."
"We had a fabulous overnight stay
A beautiful hotel fabulous food fabulous staff could find no faults at all
Would highly recommend and can’t wait to return"
"We had a lovely welcome, a very pleasant stay for the stop over night we were there. Clean room with everything you needed.
Breakfast selection was good, though would have liked to have the option of a Scottish breakfast to complete the experience."
