The room hadn't been cleaned, excrement in toilet. Windows were painted shut. No staff there to check in, no tea or coffee in the room had to walk to Waverley inn to get room key. After complaining, we were moved to the Waverley inn. The room there was acceptable! Dont book this hotel.

Disliked: Amenities
I would rate my overall stay a 3/5. The property was hard to find. It’s not clearly labeled. Our toilet in our room leaked every time you flushed it. The hot water in our room took 30 minutes to heat up and had weird water pressure. I will say that the staff was very nice and accommodating in the fact that we got in super late after check in due to transportation issues. The overall room was clean but very small.

Hogmanay accommodation

Hotel staff was very helpful and very accommodating, we arrived very late and we picked up a meal from outside, the staff arranged a seating in the breakfast bar for us right away, very helpful this was. The room was very clean and also the beds spotless. At the time of visit, NewYear an eve we got the hotel for £62 for a family room, every where else was several hundreds. With this in mind you get what you pay for but we got a family run business that I would recommend no problem. Thank you staff at the Royal hotel

Hotel is in the process of being renovated. Our room was good; bathroom and shower were newly renovated. The only complaint is that it needs some exterior signage so people know where it is and some signs for where to go to check in.

For the price, the room itself was about what you’d expect. What I didn’t expect though was it to be within a snooker club with no signage except printed A4 paper with a different hotel name on it! Ok if you need a cheap room but don’t expect a luxury building and location.

Stopover

It was supposed to be a guesthouse but it was an “under construction” old hotel. No sign-so hard to find. Tiny window. Dirty hand basin and shower. Un-emptied bin. Best part was continental breakfast.

We booked for 2 double bed and one single bed ensuite room. But we didn't get what we booked as the receptionist told there was no family room left but in websites it was showing available. Since it was night we couldn't book any other hotel and we were left with no option other than go on with just a double bedroom ensuite. Whole night we couldn't sleep properly as we were 3 people in one bed.

No hot water on 2nd floor shower

Everything was nice about the property BUT there was no hot water in the showers in 2nd floor !!, and no one at the reception to assist in the morning. Had to take a cold water shower on a cold autumn morning. One does not expect this from a registered hotel in Scotland

Central and friendly Guest house

Lovely host who was friendly and kept my room for me unlike the Park Hill Guest House in Inverness. Breakfast is included in the price and is taken in the Waverley Inn behind the church. Highly recommended and pricing is ultra competitive
