Nice bed. Lovely staff who went above and beyond when we couldn’t use tv due to missing remote. There was a dirty towel hanging on back of door from previous guests which made us doubt cleanliness of room

Liked: Staff & service
We were a little late arriving so we had to check in at the bar which was super loud next to our room. I wish we'd have known our room was on the street next to the bar's front door because loud people were coming and going until early morning hours. Luckily, I brought earplugs which helped a little. Breakfast was good.

The Bank hotel is just the type of accommodations my wife & I were looking for, privately owned, small, unassuming, within easy walking distance to local shops and with a unique, beautiful view.

Very friendly staff, clean, quiet rooms. Good hearty breakfast. Lovely view of garden,beach and river from dining room and bedroom. Slight issues were TV stuck on one channel and holder for shower head broken. To be fair, we didn't mention these till check out, as weren't big issues for us. Neither of these things would stop us staying here again. It was an unexpected treat to find such a nice place to stay as we were passing through the area!

We had a lovely stay at The Bank. Room was at the back with a cracking view and was nice and quiet. Breakfast was amazing too, I had smoked haddock both days. Only gave 3 stars for condition as bathroom door handle was loose, shower head was loose and fell down in the holder and there was only one hand towel. Long haired folks need a separate towel for their hair. Apart from this the room was spotless. Tea, coffee and water provided, will definitely stay again.

Beautiful!

A beautiful and comfortable room! Stunning views. The little garden for hotel guests is a perfect setting. The best breakfast we’ve had so far in Scotland! The manager and her team were so accommodating to our family 100% recommend

Charming Village, great location

We honestly had a wonderful stay at The Bank. The food and service was incredible for dinner and breakfast. The bed and linens were very nice. Our only drawback was the location of our room, right on the street beside the adjacent pub. Also, I wouldn't say the hotel is a four star, unless we were in an auxiliary section

I stayed in the room facing High Street for two nights, and the experience was great all around. It was surprisingly quiet. The bar is five steps away, the staff was cordial and professional, and both breakfast and evening meals were well-made and presented.
