Forget the slightly dated furnishing and decor, the friendliness of the staff and the location of this hotel is a treat not to be missed, even more so if you stay in a loch front bedroom The owner (Mr McCloud?) made us feel very welcome by driving us up to the spectacular viewpoint, near the hotel to save the climb,...

Took a recent trip to the highlands via Fort William, Kyle of Lochalsh and Skye. Having planned to stop in Fort William, the town wasn't exactly appealing so we drove onto Kyle through the high pass above Invergarry and through Kintail where the hills were still hanging onto the snow. We arrived in Kyle of Lochalsh about so decided to... More

I stayed a night in the Lochalsh Hotel with my husband. It was fine for just the night but despite a pretty location it was quite run down and had a strange smell. It was not expensive and the nights sleep was okay.

As has been mentioned this hotel is in desperate need of a refurb, but the staff a helpful and welcoming, rooms a decent size, prices okay (after negotiation) and views stunning. Breakfast was fine but we didn't eat in the restaurant since there was a good Indian restaurant nearby which at least had some vegetarian options! Maybe not a place... More

After a delightful B&B stay in Kyle, we mis-read the Winter/Summer time-table for our return train to Inverness, and turned up at the station for a non-existent Sunday 10:18 train, in a horrendous wind-swept gale......next (only!) train was 15:22........but....no problem.....we battled our way against the elements to the Lochalsh Hotel : we encountered run-down decor, but a great location and...

My wife and I travelled on a day trip from Dingwall to kyle of Lochalsh and we duly arrived at about lunchtime. Given that we had a couple of hours in Kyle until we returned we thought we would have lunch at The Lochalsh Hotel (a short walking distance from the railway station). The 'blackboard' located at the hotels' car... More

Like the previous reviewer, we remember this hotel from the days of when the ferry was available to Kyleakin and we always wanted to stay there on numerous visits to family members who stay in the area, This time (early-April 2013) we decided that we would fulfil our wish to stay at the main Kyle of Lochalsh hotel and we...

I booked in advance and chose this hotel because I'd remembered seeing it whilst waiting for the ferry ( before the Skye Bridge had opened) and liked the location. I was apprehensive after reading some of the reviews on TripAdvisor however our experience was quite the contrary to the negative comments by some! We booked by phone, for two nights... More

The lochalsh hotel is not good. In fact, it's aweful. It's only redeeming feature is the view and location. Everything about the hotel needs updating. The decor is simply disgusting, it's also far from spotless. Unfortunately I think the end of the road is nigh for this old girl. Do yourselves a favour stay anywhere else. Stay in your car,... More
