Highland Hotel experience
Pros:

Our second stay at this lovely Highland Hotel.
All Staff are welcoming and so very helpful, friendly and observant, anticipating needs and offering timeous and approriate help.
Spotlessly clean, spacious and comfortable bedroom with adaptations to assist with mobility for one of us. Daily servicing of the bedroom to a high standard by friendly attentive staff.
Attractive restaurant with lovely food and careful dietary adaptations (gluten free for us) by Chef and Servers.
Attractive and comfortable lobby with daily papers and spacious and a comfortable bar for after dinner coffee and socialising.
Lots of information is available on the local area, natural history and places of interest. A full programme of talks, walks and birdwatching is available from local expert leaders.
The atmosphere is truly Highland at its best.

Cons:

We couldn't stay longer!

Generally very pleasant.
Pros:

The coffee/tea station in the bar after dinner. A problem dealt with quickly.

Cons:

Cold plates for hot food at breakfast. Would have liked bigger selection of fresh fruit at breakfast and more variety in bread/pastry products.

Pros:

The room was excellent.

Cons:

Not that we didn't like it, but the dinners were a bit variable in quality. We also felt it was a pity that the breakfast was rather inflexible - I like a continental breakfast, so I would have preferred a more economical alternative to the all or nothing full cooked breakfast.
