Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
I had booked this as a surprise for my husband. We arrived early so room was not ready. Checked in and was a bit disappointed as room was facing the car park. I had contacted the hotel prior to arrival as it was a surprise birthday pressie. However asked if there was any rooms with a view of the loch. There was a surcharge of £40 or £60 which was a little disappointing and an unplanned spend. However we upgraded as it was a special occasion to a suite which had beautiful views of the loch. Room was initially freezing and took hours to heat up but worth it.

Terrific stay.
We had a fabulous stay at Duck Bay. The staff were very friendly and helpful, delivered excellent service at all times. We loved our room. It was spotlessly clean and comfortable with fantastic views down the length of Loch Lomond towards Ben Lomond. The food was tremendous and good value. A fantastic experience all round.

We booked the executive suite overlooking the lock. The room size was great and we had easy access to a private patio. We ordered room service that arrived promptly. Food was lovely and the staff were very pleasant. Lots of water activities nearby and a bus stop across from the hotel if travelling via public transport. Scenery is unreal. Would recommend and will absolutely be back.

Expensive but you pay for where you are
Bed bit small, but otherwise comfortable. Decaff choices would be good. Only one biscuit for couple sharing seemed a bit sparse! Staff were all lovely especially breakfast team.

We had stayed here previously and had an excellent experience however this time around the hotel experience was not so positive. The mattress in the bedroom was not fit for purpose and the next day housekeeping changed the mattress. The 2nd night a couple had an argument which did not let us sleep. Our room was a the front of the hotel hence all the young people were there in the early hours. We had 2 sleepless nights. We contacted head office on our return home and they have apologised but that’s all. We will not be returning to this particular hotel.

The hotel staff were friendly and helpful but the restaurant staff weren’t very attentive - our table was late and we weren’t asked if we wanted anymore drinks or condiments with our meal. Our room had a dirty teacup in it when we arrived and the pillows on the bed were very hard. We thought the hotel was overpriced.

I’ve stayed in dozens of hotels in the last few years and this one has the best view of them all. Absolutely fantastic location with a veranda right on the loch shore. Good restaurant and bar Missing a mini bar in the room though and lots of noise from room above
