Faded opulence. An overpriced, scruffy and outdated hotel serving expensive poor quality food. Stay somewhere else!
Pros:

The location and pleasant staff

Cons:

The hotel is a relic of the 1960’s, much of it is derelict. Peeling wallpaper and paint, chipped tiles, faded pictures, cheap furnishings. At £160 a night it is very expensive for what you get. Food is overpriced and poor.

Pleasant stay. Staff helpful.
Pros:

Breakfast OK. Containers for cereal very difficult to hold and lift. Perhaps some with handles would be better for arthritis sufferers

Cons:

No access to TV. Understand that reception may be poor but expect to be able to keep up with world news.

Gemütliches und sehr freundlich geführtes Traditionshotel
Pros:

Noch ein familien-geführtes Hotel, das mit Freundlichkeit und Leidenschaft geleitet wird. Wir haben uns sehr wohl und vorallem willkommen gefühlt. Das Restaurant ist toll - sowohl Abendessen als auch Frühstück waren lecker und ausreichend.

Cons:

Die Ausstattung ist etwas in die Jahre gekommen - hat uns aber auf der Durchreise nicht gestört.

A traditional Scottish hotel offering decent accommodation and a reasonable selection of food.
Pros:

The host Gail was welcoming and friendly. A traditional Scottish hotel on the edge of Loch Broom. Lovely views. Plenty of parking. The room was clean and comfortable. Bed was comfy. A great location to explore the coastal peninsula.

Cons:

The decor was traditional a couple of decades ago, but the hotel was warm and friendly.
