Wendy, United Kingdom

Beautiful big, airy room with panoramic view of Ben Shea. Hotel has lovely garden and flowers about. Updated but has kept period features. Big screen TV in dining room. Excellent breakfast. Great parking. Owner/Manager attentive. Village store and park immediately across the road.

Mary, Canada

Unfortunately could feel the springs in the mattress, Window had broken and wasn't easy to control airflow. Shower was electric, pressure was POOR, tried for ages to find the right temperature and in the end have up as it was either boiling or freezing. Dead spiders everywhere. Very unpleasant stay. Explained to the hostess of our unpleasantries and she was very dismissive. Explained I wasn't after a discount and she was a little rude. Breakfast was imo substandard in this modern age and although the breakfast area was lovely the scrambled eggs made in microwave and in a pan, mushrooms out of a tin and toast looked like it was made the day before. It's sad as I always look for positive things to write but on this occasion not much to report.

An Inside Look at Ben Sheann Hotel

We fell in love with the Trossachs many years ago and when we were given the opportunity of acquiring the Ben Sheann we took the chance with excitement and a bit of trepidation as the property had fallen in to a bad state The Ben Sheann is a beautiful Victorian building and actually had a visit from Queen Victoria herself! When the railway basically ran past our front door Steve put a lot of love and care into the renovation which took us around two years to get it to a beautiful standard We hope that you would enjoy the Ben Sheann and surrounding beauty as much as we do!

Road noise, the hotel is on a busy main road and the windows are single glazed, I was woken very early by the traffic noise. Breakfast was disappointing and the lady taking the breakfast orders seemed to be struggling to keep up with this.
Friendly staff/owner, lovely rooms,convenient.

No ensuite but I knew that when booking. My room (room 2) is needing a little love to make it feel warm and friendly but as it was a one night stop it was ok. The car park is on a slope round the back which for us motorcycle riders is a problem as motorbikes like level surfaces when stationary.
The food, the bar, the staff and the breakfast. Very happy with the sevice.
