9.5
Rooms and property described as well maintained and recently remodeled; occasional issues noted in dining area (tables left messy, cutlery/plates dropped) but overall very clean.

Room Quality
9.1
Rooms described as charming, cosy and comfortable after a recent remodel; beds and showers frequently praised (super comfy bed, amazing shower).

9
Generally positive or unremarked beyond the refurb; parking setup caused a negative experience for at least one guest, but on balance amenities are viewed positively after the remodel.
Value for Money
7.2
Several guests felt food and some meals were expensive for what was received; expectation vs cost concerns for dinner portions and quality.
Food and Beverage
8.6
Food quality receives strong praise (excellent breakfast and many delicious meals) but F&B service and timing issues (slow service, some overcooked items) temper the score.
Overall Experience
9
Overall stays are very positive — beautiful property, cosy rooms and many friendly interactions — but recurring service/staffing issues in dining and parking friction reduce perfection.

Passez votre chemin !
Pros:

Rien

Cons:

Cet hébergement est une catastrophe en dehors de sa localisation : le service est déplorable par exemple lorsqu'il y a des places de disponibles dans le restaurant et que le service vous précise que vous ne pouvez que dîner face au bar, la nourriture est tout à fait quelconque et mal présentée, les prix des whisky est hallucinant, l'accueil est sans saveur. Bref un rapport qualité prix qui doit vous inciter à passer votre chemin.

Uniquely Special Hotel
Pros:

Hands down The Loch Lomond Arms must be the most thoughtfully and creatively decorated hotel I've ever stayed in. Recently renovated earlier this year, this property is a delight from the bar and dining room downstairs to the hallways and rooms. Each room is totally unique featuring a local clans person or theme and is curated with unique art, decor, photographs, and objects, all done with very high-end fabrics, bedding, furniture and finishing touches. The designer deserves an accolade for his/her superior work. The linens, towels, and robes are top quality. Local chocolates and a dram of whiskey and gin as well as a complimentary bar with soda waters and beer, cookies and a beautiful coffee/tea station are in each room. Lindsay at reception was so pleasant and helpful on check-in. Liam in the uniquely charmingly decorated bar conducted a whiskey tasting for guests. most enjoyable and interesting stay. Cuisine in the dining room for breakfast and dinner was good.

Cons:

The dining room serving staffing arrangement needs refinement and organization as both dinner and breakfast service was disjointed and delayed.

Boutique historical Hotel with Modern comforts Like staying in a museum
Pros:

The uniqueness and quirkiness of the rooms and the total layout. It was like a museum. stepped in history if you were interested so it made for fascinating reading about all the family and. memorabilia.

Cons:

The entrance was quite confusing and they didn’t have a set check-in area. The check-in area was the Bar.

Great place to stay
Pros:

How unique the room and decoration was. Not the standard "chain" of hotels where everything looks the same. A genuine attempt to be different. Loved the hand written letter in the room and the key fob which was a pocket watch.

Cons:

Nothing really
