This hotel was a convenient stop along the West Highland Way hiking trail. The staff was friendly, but not all that helpful. The check in staff should have told us upon checking in that there was going to be live music until 11:00 just below our room. We were jet lagged and wanted to sleep early, and the music went for 3 hours. The toilet and sink were not working properly, even with someone coming to service them. The carpet in the room was not clean, most likely mud from someone’s hiking boots. The manager, upon our request, did take care of our breakfast for our trouble, which was nice.

Good hotel though could do with some updating, showers not great as there was no water pressure. Some staff were great, mainly serving staff and bar staff, some couldn’t be bothered, they were very helpful with dinner for our group of 9 making sure we got sorted. Would go back if we where in that area again

Not so good as rated, it’s clean, but not sure if changing bedding, had used towel left in bathroom. Staff are friendly and polite. After answering rating questions came out too good valuation but in reality it’s not so good like you could expect.

Had a lovely stay at this hotel again. The hotel is a bit tired looking tho I believe it’s currently being refurbished in some areas and I would not let that put you off staying here. Leisure facilities are excellent. It was very clean tho and the staff were all very pleasant and helpful.

Great staff, amazing food.
So my check in was simple and painless. Within a few minutes i had the room key and was off. The room was spacious and clean, good amount of tea/coffee/milk/sugar. The bed was very comfy. I did notice the floor / bed base did sqeek a bit. Bathroom looked like it had just been refurbished. Very modern and clean. There was a random piece of furniture in my room which looked like a old tv stand. ? Shower wasnt very good sadly. They have extremely high water pressure so a slight turn of the tap and blasting all over the place. Bar/restaurant were really nice. Food was really good. Well cooked and full of flavour. Staff especially the kitchen staff were fantastic, they are all really young but they all worked so hard! Great location for loch lomond. Plenty of car parking spaces. Didnt have a huge outdoor area.
