Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers good food in a nice size room with comfortable beds, but expect some noise from thin walls. The service is outstanding, especially from welcoming staff like Karen & Anne. The location is excellent for exploring nearby activities, but dining could use some variety. Overall, a welcoming and tidy hotel with a great location.
The hotel is in a convenient location near Aberfoyle in Scotland, offering a great base for exploring the surrounding lochs. The rooms, while clean and with a window that opens, could benefit from some updating. The service was top-notch, making my stay friendly and enjoyable. The dining experience, although not my favorite, had delicious options to choose from. Overall, a good value for money stay with lovely views of the mountains.
The hotel's rooms are a bit outdated but not by any means bad. All the staff were friendly and very helpful. It wasn't ready for arriving even though I didn't arrive until after 5, even though check-in was supposed to be at 3 pm, so I expected it to be ready. The hotel was clean and modern with an excellent bathroom and shower.
