Overall Ratings & Reviews Loch Shiel Hotel

Small country hotel with all the basics a long way from major settlement with little other accommodation available.

Check in was great, felt very welcome. It’s an old house, quirky. On way up to room could definitely feel the odd sunken floorboard Brushed against the wooden radiator cover on the landing and it promptly came away from the wall with us scrabbling to catch it. The room wasn’t huge, but had 2 chairs so that was a bonus. The floor slopes from the door to the window, quit a bit. Enough for a 4x4 wooden plank to be put under one side of the bed to make it level. The bed, although only a double, was actually wry comfortable. The shower room was pretty small, that’s ok but the actual shower was tiny. My hubby could hardly get in the doors, once he was in, he filled the space, could hardly turn round and had no chance of retrieving the soap when he dropped it LOL The bar area was good and a great view of the garden. Breakfast. Well, the tea and toast was good. I don’t recommend getting the scrambled egg and salmon, think the whole lot was microwaved together, it was still in the shape of the bowl when on th plate. My hubby had full breakfast, the bacon tasted microwaved too and the rest tasted bland. All in all its needs updating and someone who can cook breakfast. The staff were friendly and helpful but we definitely don’t think it was value for money, we’ve stayed in far better places for a lot less.

We were pleasantly surprised when we arrived. The room was comfortable and had everything we need for a comfortable stay. We only ate breakfast at the hotel but it was lovely. It was a very pleasant stay.

Very friendly staff. Well appointed room with good shower. Good food including a great breakfast.

In many ways more like B&B rather than hotel. Public bar downstairs. Breakfast very nice and owner friendly and helpful. Set in a small village with very nice surrounding countryside. My only criticism would be that it was quite expensive for a B&B.

A tight breakfast timing ! A little stressful . Lovely dinner staff though - forgiving when we were a bit late arriving after a long drive Deer in the garden !

Staff , food and the surrounding area all first class. Would happily return.

Lovely hotel in a great location. Staff were very friendly. Room was spotless with a nice comfy bed. Breakfast was of a high standard.

Dog friendly hotel - good value, friendly staff, great breakfast and a quiet location.

Adequate.

Superb location, lovely rooms, great food and friendly team working there - what's not to like!

5 nights, days spent walking mostly

Great hotel and great food

Had a lovely stay. Rooms are comfortable, shower good. Hotel slightly dated and could do with refurbishment in the bathrooms but staff and food are absolutely second to none, best breakfast we have ever had. Lovely walks close by, beautiful gardens to sit in, small shop nearby, great bar. Would definitely go back for the breakfast and lovely staff alone, will book a king size bed next time though.

Lovely old style country hotel Room was comfortable Dinner & breakfast were excellent

Great place to stay in an absolutely beautiful location!

This was the best place we stayed at on our tour of the Scottish Highlands. It’s family-run, comfortable and clean. And the food was amazing! It is out of the way from the most common attractions, but it is worth the trip, because it is a wonderful little place located in a quiet part of the highlands.

I had a lovely stay in this hotel with my dog. Delicious meals were served as well. Definitely going to come back for another stay!

Only negative I had was the late check-in time, but other than that I had a great experience, and really enjoyed the wonderful staff.

The whole hotel was comfortable and nicely decorated.
