The Ballachulish Hotel  

There was only the location

We didnt like anything about the hotel from the outside its very inviting due to the building and location but once inside its a different story from the staff on reception who sat giggling in the corner with no personality at all then given the key to our room with poor directions after leaving reception to find our room it just got worse the climb to our floor was dark dingy and in need of cleaning and redecoration on entering our room it it was a no go area very small with very small shower room we couldnt even pass each outher the bed was very old with not good bedding the window that was supposed to give us veiws was like a prison window we didnt even un pack we left and found beter accomodation we wouldnt reccomend this hotel

Plenty of parking

A tired hotel, sealed, airless, hot room. Loo unflushed on arrival. Unwelcoming at breakfast. Sticky tables in bar. Not worth £106 at all. Trades entirely on location and is a bad adverstisment for Scottish tourism.

it was great to have such a cosy living room and library. We really liked the antique books of the hotel lounge, the staf wages book in particular.

We enjoyed the beautiful scenery and the lovely food. Staff informed us about the firework display and were very helpful.

We found this a beautiful stately hotel, a little way out of Ballachulish which adds to the peace and serenity. There is reasonable on site parking. We had a great room which was quite spacious and, tastefully decorated with a great view of the loch. The hotel has an excellent restaurant with a warm relaxing atmosphere .

Its location and it was on route to Skye

Acess to the west wing was a bit torturous and the stairwells were not very clean.

We arrived and our room was nothing like the photos shown. We complained but the lady on the desk was rude and told us the photos shown were the best the hotel had to offer and we could not expect that standard. I must point out we had not booked a standard room but the one above with a loch view. We complained again that night to a different staff member and the next night they moved us to a different room, the difference was incomparable. We were also kept awake until the bar closed at 4am by other patrons. If you're looking for a quiet getaway this is more like staying in a pub! There was also a fight between two drunk hotel guests outside our room.

Perfect for a nice relaxing break. Great staff , good food and clean comfortable room.

The brochure that prompoted us to do this hotel was pretty much correct. The Lakeside Hotel was very historic. We enjoyed the hotel.The food was good. We wished we had known that they served dinner. The room was good. The parking is on the side, and there is an entrance that had we been aware of where our room was...third floor, we could have saved ourselves a lot of dragging and lugging. Even with the Tom-Tom for guideance, our arrival was facilitated only because it was visible right below the bridge. The Tom-Tom was wrong. This is not the best place we stayed on our trip, but it was memorable, and sadly Scotland lost to England in Rugby at the World Cup,

lovely location

Damp room .obvious long term roof problem as area of damp had been patched up many times

Spacious, comfortable room. Good buffet breakfast. Ideally placed for walking in Glen Coe
