The Luib Hotel

had what I needed

Cute place on the main road. The staff is very friendly and the food was excellent.

Worst experience ever! For some reason The hotel was booked for 2 adults and not included my 2 boys , when we arrived at the hotel very late at the night, the arrogant and mean private hotel owner didn’t allow more than 2 people in the room even including children. Since no ways to find other hotels nearby, my husband and one boy had to sleep in the car. I knew it’s kind of my fault and made rush reservations, but never had issues before, and most hotels accommodate children stays.

The hotel itself is very old, has creaky floors, I can hear people’s snoring at the next room. Dark hallways and stairs, easily trip. The hotel was not worth it for the price, would not recommend.

Nice stay

A warm welcome, enjoyed my stay, Thank you

Lovely folks and cool old drovers inn. Unfortunately we didn't know there was no food available on Mondays or Tuesdays (though I contacted the hotel twice when booking and was told we would be able to get dinner at least)
Bed was a bit funky but good enough

Stayed one night in this historic Drovers Inn. I loved it. Staff were friendly and helpful. Food was good and reasonably priced. Will definitely stay here again.

Comfortable room, good value for money
Very friendly and welcoming, thank you

The owners were kind and helpful at getting us checked in and showing us our rooms. The place was sufficient for our needs but not ideal. There were no outlets in our room that were reachable. We had to plug things in in the hallway. Our bedding was clean, but the extra pillows on the top of the cabinet did not have changed pillow cases and had hair on them.

My son and I spent one night here on May 2, 2025. It was an exhausting day because we were lied to and ripped off by Europcar. We couldn’t get any roadside assistance even though we paid extra for it Upon arrival at the Luib, we were met with understanding and caring. They have a small staff and a tough job. The owners are very successful people and have owned a number of businesses in Europe and now live in their hometown. I bonded with them and staff immediately. Some reviewers are upset that they were denied bathroom amenities. Sadly, I can see how some entitled people treat the Luib like it’s a public rest stop with free public amenities. That happens to them constantly. The Luib has so much character inside that you really do need to stop here. If not staying the night, go there in the evening for drinks, conversation and atmosphere. I was shown genuine kindness by the owners and hope to see them again next year. We were very satisfied with our stay and the ambience was priceless. Highly recommend.

It is a beautiful 17th century building, quirky and old. Maybe because it is out of high season, they had a very limited selection of food and drink and it just felt like we were too much trouble? The fan in the bathroom was really noisy which is a problem for late night needs and the mattress was super soft and lumpy!

Beautiful location and nice people. Owners said 10 pm was quite time but stayed up until 11:30 talking very loudly which kept us awake. Don’t eat there; small menu with mediocre food. Eat in Killin. The room had a cracked window with peeling paint. The inn needs a fair amount of up keep. Not worth the money.

Very basic hotel. Room was a bit tired and rundown. The bar/restaurant smelled of dirty cooking oil which was quite unpleasant and it lingered on hair and clothes.
Only stayed as a stop off on the way to our holiday destination so it served its purpose, but not worth the price.

Lovely and loved.

The hotel had an attached lot for convenient parking and a restaurant on site. We had a delicious meal for dinner during our one night stay. The hosts were friendly and helpful. The bed was comfortable. The bathroom could’ve been a bit cleaner.

The countryside around the property was beautiful. The hotel was right on the roadside, so you could hear the cars driving by. Since there was no were else to eat close by, it was practical to be able to eat there, but the fare was simple with no fresh options, such as salads. Some of the mattresses sank in the middle and the coils could be felt. I tried to sleep on a pillow for this reason. The bathroom window was moldy and the moldy smell carried over into the room. Everything was well meant, but really needs updating and renovations. If you can afford to stay somewhere else, do that.

Being Scotland, places can be old and that is the charm. The Inn could use some lights in the hallways for night time, but the beds were comfortable, it was quiet at night and there are beautiful fields behind it. The cook had been sick for a while, so the nice lady that checked us in suggested the Courie Inn in Killin, which was excellent. Killin is a great town about a 5-10 min drive away with a gorgeous river and really lovely places to eat, stay and even an old castle.

Great old Scottish pub! We loved the authenticity and atmosphere. Basic accommodation but an incredible whiskey selection and the staff were great

Lovely people and food, great spot.

Great staff and convenient location along our route. Rooms clean but a wee bit smallish.
