true hospitalityamazing front deskbeautiful stylestained carpets
the staff showed true highland hospitality. lorraine at the front desk was amazing and helped with a smile. the breakfast service was attentive and helpful. i was delighted to learn the hotel had a hairdresser on site and eilidh styled my hair up beautifully for a special event.
the hotel needs a little modernization, with some areas showing wear and tear. i did notice stained carpets in some areas, which detracted slightly from the overall experience. these issues, while present, did not overshadow the positive aspects of my stay, i believe.
