Aultbea Hotel

Comfortable bed, friendly barmaid and good breakfast.

The most expensive hotel we stayed in during our time in the highlands but certainly not the best.

Warm, friendly welcome. Comfortable room, very clean and well presented. Superb views of Loch

There was a very pleasant relaxed atmosphere in the hotel and the food was good.

While the staff were friendly there seemed to be rather chaotic organisation and perhaps, too, too much involvement with guest choices!

Food was good but service was poor because the dining room was too busy, we were kept waiting more than an hour for main course to be served.

The building is out of date and impossible to operate efficiently, Poor quality extensions in the past and its general age make it dowdy, tired and in despearate need of major updating and overhaul. Lots of little bits of wear and tear showing, clumsy, thoughtless alterations (has anyone seen the cables in the dining room?), bits of the fabric that are too difficult to reach and, therefore, clean, all contribute to a very unpleasant atmosphere. There does not seem to be any co-ordinated thinking about appearance, image or presentation. The staff were really pleasant and helpful although a bit mechanical when reciting what they had been told to say on arrival rather than welcoming. The hotel survives because od where and not what it is.

Wonderful location, quiet area with lovely scenery. As to the hotel, it was clean and tidy, had all we needed, good food and friendly staff.

The night we arrived the staff was very polite and helpful. They made uis feel welcomed and that our business was appreciated.

In the morning, the woman that checked us out was very rude and insulting. She said that they do not allow children after we had spent the evening in their family room and were treated kindly by the evening staff who were aware that we had the children.

Rooms all have good views. Inhabitants have compiled an interesting local history booklet: copy kept in the guest lounge. Local store well stocked. Wonderful scenery.

Rooms were slightly small. Restaurant food not good value.

The location could not be faulted. Right on the edge of the loch. Our room looked over the loch and the sunsets. The scenery getting there from the Kyle of Lochalsh was stunning but allow 3 hours if you are driving that way. The breakfast was excellent. The room was 'comfortable'. This is a very quiet hotel, even in the public bar, so if you want nightlife, this is NOT the place.

The lady who I assumed to be the owner/manager is a discredit to her position. Not very welcoming at all. She seemed to be very grumpy as if we shouldn`t be there. The TV in our room did not work and was a major chore to get it replaced. The evening meals are very average but well above average prices. The shower-room in room 1 is a bit cramped but clean and modern with an electric shower.

Great location. Warm and friendly welcome. Good food.

indicato come 3 stelle in realtà è un 2 stelle

ubicación y traquilidad en un pequeño pueblo de la costa noroeste.

Ottima la cucina del ristorante, piatti abbondanti. Camere non molto grandi ma pulite e confortevoli.

Nella camera esposta sulla baia i serramenti non si chiudevano bene, la notte è stata molto ventosa e il rumore del vento ha disturbato il nostro sonno.
