Good place to stay. It was clean and in a convenient location. The only thing that was a bit of a pain was the sound proofing. I believe people may live above floor two and they stayed up walking around until after midnight. Wouldn’t be a problem at all except there is no sound proofing in the room I was in. Other than that a fantastic place to stay and would recommend.

Was only there for one night and didn't spend a huge amount of time there but it was a lovely, clean and well designed room with a very nice en-suite and comfortable bed. Good set up with self check in. In a quite area near to the local stops for great access. Would definitely stay again.

Very clean and well appointed rooms. Contactless check-in was simple thanks to the advance email fro. The hotel. A little disappointed we were not able to eat at the property due to lack of staff but several other options a few minutes away. We would return!

6/10 Okay

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Disliked: Staff & service
The place was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. However, it is one of the places with self-check in where you are entirely dependent on messages to access the place. Also, because of staff shortages you were directed to another property a few Km's away for breakfast. B&, we'll there was only one B, with a chatbot doesn't cut it for me. An unfortunate trend which seems to be taking hold.

Stayed in the alpine family room which was EXCELLENT - two separated (by doors) areas - one with twin beds, one with a double. Lovely clean, personal hotel and a fantastic breakfast (£13 extra each for fully cooked). The town was a good stop off between Edinburgh and Loch Ness for us, but actually plenty of local sights to see. Check in is by key code but worked well enough. Two floors of steps (no problem for us but if that’s a challenge then be warned).

Brilliant - highly reccomended.

Great for a family stop over. Really nice comfortable rooms and amenities. Highly recommended. The only minor comment is that the kids could not reach the shampoo and shower gel mounted to the wall! A really minor comment but maybe something that could be changed. Would definitely stay at this hotel or their sister hotel in Kingusie (The Crossing) again in the future.

Easy to access the property, and you can order your breakfast at check in. The room was really clean, and so beautifully decorated. The rooms aren't as sound proofed as expected, but still a lovely place to stay. The breakfast was delicious, and the staff member we spoke to was so helpful. Will be back!
