The room and en suite bathroom were large and clean. Parking was ample and easy. No one was on site at the hotel, and I was a bit confused about the self check in process. Ultimately got that sorted, but I was tired when checking in, so it felt like an additional hassle after a long day of driving. The room was clean, but the bed was a bit uncomfortable for me and the pillows very flat.

Just what you want
We stayed 1 night after climbing Ben Nevis as it is about an hour away and for the price it was perfect. We stayed in stables and it was just what you would want, nice quiet apartment with comfy clean facilities, nice powerful hot shower and comfy bed. Parking out the front of our room and a complimentary breakfast which was a nice touch. Would highly recommend.

LDWA National 100 mile walk Spayside 2024
Our stay for 6 nights at the Columba House Kingussie was for the LDWA National 100 mile run walk. We stayed in room 6 which is accessed by outside sttone stairs from the courtyard parking area. The room was a little tired, although the bedding was clean, shower (in bath) and toilet were good. The carpet was dirty, a hard floor would have been better, the doors and skirting desperately needed a coat of paint. Room service was none existant, room not serviced throughout our stay even when clean room card was displayed. We had to phone 00 wherever that was to get clean towels. We kept room tidy ourselves. The outsiide needed a good clean up and the sevice of a good contract gardener, shortcut steps downt to the access road were covered in loose gravel and were dangerous in the dark. Grab and go breakfast was poor, we didn't bother, fridge lacked a good supply of fresh milk. Room suited our needs. we were out all Saturday Night on the walk.

We had originally planned 2 nights in The Spey, but we had to leave after 1 night due to a storm incoming & needing to catch a very early flight in Inverness. We loved the room & the quiet setting. Bed was firm, which was perfect. Very clean. No staff on site, which was odd but not a problem. Would stay here again.

Dated and never serviced
Room was never serviced, even after we asked for extra bin bags for our rubbish and then got told it should have been but it never got done for the duration of our stay. Leaking drain outside which mean an increasing pile of sewage in the car park

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The comfort and peace surpassed my expectations, and this was great value. I was looking for something straightforward when I came to Kingussie to visit my daughter, and didn't expect this to be so pleasant. The room was large and comfortable and clean. There were no staff on site, but everything had been prepared and left ready for a comfortable stay. Entry was easy, with the PIN-code key locker. Breakfast was basic but perfectly adequate, and the coffee machine was great. There was plenty of room downstairs to eat and rest. For the price I paid, I would say this was about the best hotel experience I've had. Thank you!

A blast from the past
It was good to stay in a place with character: old world design, giant panelling, uneven floors, old-world carpets, high ceilings, wooden doors, pre-modern architecture and fittings were a welcome break from Welcome Break anodynity. But finding it was hard at night: none of the signs were well-lit or lit at all; that's my only concern

Hotel shabby outside, room clean but decor dated.
There are no staff on site, bar a gentleman we took to be a caretaker. Check in is via a phone on the reception desk and an automated key safe to obtain your room key. Breakfast is self-service and limited in choice - there is no cooked breakfast option, again because there are no staff on site. The outside of the hotel is shabby and lacks maintenance. The room was clean but dated.
