Guest Reviews
It was traditional, comfortable and spacious. We loved it!
Fantastic hotel. Great facilities, room large and bright, large comfortable bed, had everything we needed including fan which was a bonus as we were fortunate to have great weather. Breakfast great - hot and cold buffet, good selection and evening meals were delicious (fantastic steak pie). All staff friendly and looked after us well. Highly recommend The Balavil. We will definitely be returning.
No complaints at all. Everything was perfect.
Food was cooked OK.
Service could be better. Food choice and presentation could be better.
A warm welcome from the staff throughout my stay. They understood I was a walker and were enthusiastic and supportive. The food was excellent, especially dinner. There were a few problems with my room when I came back in the evening of the second day but they handled these very promptly and efficiently. The location is superb for hillwalking and the town is pleasant and peaceful.
The traffic going past on the road outside my window seemingly all night! I had to keep the windows open because the weather was sunny and warm, and I am not complaining about that; never take good weather for granted in the Highlands. A bedroom at the back of the hotel would have been quieter. The road is a trunk road (A86), so gets a fair bit of traffic. I think it was made worse because of overnight repair works at the west end of town. It is a long, straight road and you can hear the traffic coming from a long way off.
Esta mas viejo que en las fotos
No hay flexibilidad para nada. Les da igual que vayas con un bebé si el desayuno acaba a las 9:30 y son las 9:27 no son capaces ni de sacarte un yogur para el bebé
Excellent, friendly and very helpful staff. Lovely hotel with great food and very comfortable rooms.
I liked that the staff were very helpful and there was a swimming pool for my daughter to use during the stay.
I did not like the price we had paid for what we got, the room was small with 3 single beds, kettle not great, no cups or teaspoons only paper cups with cardboard stirrers. Not the cleanest, we found stuff under one of the bedroom cabinet including someone else’s keycard.
Pool, restaurant, very helpful staff

Nice hotel, bar & restaurant staff. Clean rooms, nice shower.
No air con or fan!
Ok hotel, but nothing special. Breakfast choice was very limited, with low quality breakfast items (including terrible coffee). I expect much better when paying over £100 a night!
Friendly staff.
Scottish themed decor
Just had another fantastic stay at this family run hotel. All the staff are so friendly. It is so comfortable & cosy. It’s an ideal place to stay to explore the area. The food is excellent! We will certainly be back.
We loved it from the moment we walked in. Stylish decor, friendly staff, and our room smelled so good! The place was immaculately clean, and it has a small swimming pool, which was just perfect for a dip after a long days' hike, or for morning exercise. There's a bar and a restaurant, well stocked and with really delicious options. The bed was comfy. All great.
The only two things would be for the pool to be open earlier (for a pre-breakfast swim) and for there to be more interesting vegetarian options on the menu.
The location, the cleanliness and the efficient, friendly staff.
The paper cups in the bedroom - leaky! Perhaps a proper cup and saucer?!
