Reviews and Ratings
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel with modern rooms offering a stunning view of Loch Lomond. However, I would advise against booking the special meal deal.
The hotel offers an excellent view of Loch Lomond in a very comfortable setting. The service was great, although the dining experience had some flaws. The location is stunning, but there were occasional disturbances from logging trucks. Overall, a good value for the money.
The hotel had a mix of positives and negatives. While the rooms had a great view and the Scottish air was refreshing through the window, the TV options were limited. The service was top-notch with attentive housekeeping and a welcoming drink. The location was stunning right on the shores of Loch Lomond, but the dining experience left something to be desired with cold plates affecting the quality of the food.
My stay at the hotel was wonderful, with breathtaking views of Ben Lomond and a nice view over Loch Lomond. The room was lovely and the breakfast offered great value. However, the dining experience, though of reasonable quality, was served on smaller plates that made filling them a bit challenging. The service was excellent, including a nice welcome drink, and the location was simply stunning right by the lough.
The hotel offers a wonderful view of Loch Lomond and comes with reasonable en-suite facilities. The service is friendly, but the dining experience could be improved. Overall, a comfortable stay with a great location.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel, with clean and comfortable rooms, a great breakfast offering, and a lovely view of Loch Lomond. However, I wouldn't recommend booking the special deal meal as it didn't meet expectations.
The hotel sits on the shore of Loch Lomond, offering stunning views, but the single glazed windows can let in some noise. The rooms are equipped with air conditioning units, making the stay comfortable. The dining experience can be improved by serving on warmer plates for the quality of the food provided.
