8/10 Very good

Lovely rooms, everything you need. During winter there are no staff on site so no food. A basic breakfast is available. Great location
Stuart, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Lack of hot water. The place is unmanned and wasn’t cleaned throughout our three day stay. The guests in the room next to us kicked off and argued over the lack of hot water and we spent on night listening to them screaming at each other and throwing stuff about. A shame as our room was old but clean on entry. A good area and easy for reaching several sights nearby.

Joan, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

There were no staff, room was clean bit rubbish left in bathroom from previous residents. Breakfast room was ideal but bin was not emptied when crammed full of rubbish. Leftover food in bowl left a couple days, disappointing as cleaning/housekeeping staff clearly not taking care of day to day waste. Made for a disappointing stay.
Hugh, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Quiet area and comfortable stay. The place had all the necessary amenities for a night’s stay. They offer a nice lounge and provide both a microwave and a refrigerator, which made it convenient to bring and enjoy our own food. Overall, a pleasant experience!
Pamoda, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very beautiful and comfortable room, after a long day of hiking around and visiting the Highland Folk Museum. Easily accessible, and within easy walking distance from the high street. Very peaceful and quiet, really loved my stay.
Sara, 1-night trip

It's functional, but soulless. Lovely location, spacious room, plenty of parking and convenient for exploring the Highlands.

One day trip

The stay was ok. The room was cleanish and it was fine for a one night stay. The mattresses were horrible. You could feel the springs in them.

Great place for the money

Beautiful location. We couldn't believe the price for such a nice place. An older building, but very nice. If you are looking for a place to spend the night in the Caringorns, give them a try.
1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Reasonably priced hotel great location

The hotel is a lovely old building large rooms. It is a very reasonable price given its location. It will appeal to one or two night stays. With no on-site staff and a digital key box to collect and return room keys it was unusual but worked.
1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Good accommodations for the price.

No frills lodging. It's an older building, and it is showing it's age, but it's sufficient for a night or two. Big tub in the bathroom. Rooms are warm (It's Oct and cold!). Good accommodations for the price. Make sure you check your email ahead of time for the key box code, or you will have to call from the unstaffed reception. Free coffee and snacks at breakfast.
