Reviews and Ratings
The hotel has a lovely and quirky atmosphere with comfortable rooms offering wonderful sea views. However, the property is in need of a make-over, including the dated foyer and restaurant areas.
The hotel offers lovely sea views and a central location to explore Gairloch. The rooms, although slightly small and in need of updating, provide enjoyable bay window views. The service, despite struggling with new regulations, was friendly and accommodating. Dining options were mixed, with some nice dishes but limited choices. The facilities were decent, offering a great shower in the ensuite.
The hotel offers a lovely view from the dining rooms and modern easy-to-operate radiators, but the space in the rooms can feel tight, especially at the window side.
