No one on reception when I arrived, room smelt damp, mould in the shower cubicle, shower cubicle doors didn’t shut properly, no soap in the soap dispensers, sink plug didn’t allow water to run away properly, shower tray filled with water when having a shower, bathroom door handle was laid on the floor, and toilet so close to the shower you had to ride side saddle.

This is an outrageously inadequate hotel. It is unwelcoming, with a pathetic bar, poor restaurant and unloved rooms with uncomfortable beds. At £175 a night it is an absolute joke. Oh, and no soda in the bathroom and then sink was blocked. Avoid it.

Good staff, lovely view. Hotel is a little shabby, and over priced for what it is. Would only recommend if it was cheaper and if you really wanted the good view.

Needs updating
Hotel room v ropey, although views amazing. Cheap bedding and a very old bathroom with no shower attachment! No plug chain. O/f furnishings. DownstIrs loos no soap or loo roll and mouldy floor/wall. V nice staff, but not enough of them. Other rooms looked better, so maybe we were unlucky but expensive for what we had, even though we were paying high season prices.

I was really disappointed in this hotel. When we walked in to check in, it was seriously creepy- no lights were on and no one was around, and the hallway leading to our room was giving the shining hotel vibes. There were crumpled up dirty towels in our room and garbage littered throughout. Lodge on the loch needs some serious updating.

We had room 14 and it was very nice . Staff was helpful but a little short staffed, not there fault. Room was clean, pretty and was a nice surprise! I spent $300 and got much less so was happy. One thing I did not like was the water kept changing from warm to freezing in the shower. Also was asked not to toss toilet paper down the toilet out in a waste can which I found very odd . Other than that it was fine .

We arrived after delays at 9pm after phoning ahead to let them know... the chef did fantastic plates of pasta, all the tastier for being back in the warm after a too-long journey! Bedroom was decent, if old - took a bit to warm up the room (we arrived when it was already well dark) but after that, no real complaints. Really appreciate the efforts of the staff to make our stay welcome.

An odd experience. Room was clean with a nice view, but lacked basics like extra pillows and maybe some biscuits. Service rather cold and minimal, not exactly welcoming. We were shown a restaurant menu but it looked poor and there was nobody else dining, so we went out for pizza. Nobody offered us breakfast. No outside lighting despite dark night. Nobody at checkout when we left next day, then exited the place into a cloud of toxic smoke: the staff were burning beds on the front lawn. What?! I'm a Highlander and believe in Highland hospitality. It's clear to me that a lot of Highland hotels are getting bought up cheaply by people from outside the area who haven't a clue how to run them. Beware. Hospitable it was not.
