Reviews and Ratings
The hotel was nice and comfy, making me feel at home with a great breakfast to enjoy. Being provided with 2 x Tunnock's Caramel Wafers to go with my tea/coffee was an absolute win. The availability of the treats both in the lounge and rooms added to the coziness.
I had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The rooms were very clean and well-appointed, spacious with an area to sit and perfect for drying motorcycling gear. They were really comfortable and had everything I needed. The service was impeccable, and the location couldn't have been better for exploring beautiful beaches and enjoying great dining options. The full breakfast was excellent, and the staff provided helpful information about the local area. I would definitely stay here again!
The hotel is perfectly situated, just a short stroll from the town center but tucked away from the hustle of Ullapool. The rooms are spacious, with lovely soft carpets and all the necessary amenities. The service is top-notch, and the dining options are delicious. However, the Wi-Fi is not complimentary, and there's room for improvement in the breakfast variety.
