I arrived at the hotel for a conference held by the RIAS (Royal Institute of Architects of Scotland) and came with my partner (who suffers from emphysema). The manager, Debbie and her young staff where dedicated to the extreme looking after our many needs. In particular Debbie went beyond what one normally finds in a hotel and her help was... More

Had a lovely weekend stay with the wife while we toured the highlands. The inside of the hotel could do with a cosmetic refurb. The staff are just fantastic particularly the young manageress who could not do enough to help us. Honestly the staff and managers here are the most genuine caring I have seen in a long time Thanks

This hotel needs a visit from Alex Polizzi. Great potential but so disappointing. The rooms were very dated and tired. Who advertises trying their great steaks but they won't be on until June! The Dinner was very reminiscent of school dinners, overcooked and bland. Thankfully the breakfast was much better. An expensive hotel for what you got.

Stayed one night here when attending a wedding nearby. Pretty disappointed overall. We booked a double room and were provided with a twin. Highlighted this to reception staff who apologised and said they would have the room made into a double (ie - Push the beds together - personal pet hate in hotels.) The decor throughout was very tired and... More

Strathpeffer is a sleepy village that shows signs of a once grand place. It's starting to look run down now. The hotel has very nice staff who I would say are good at their jobs. The decor is pretty tacky but the beds were comfortable and shower was decent. First night we had dinner in the hotel. Big mistake! The... More

Zambina, the hotel clerk, was so helpful with all of our questions and tended to our every request quickly, efficiently, and with a genuine desire to serve us. The room was comfortable and clean. It was very quiet and relaxing. We had a very nice view out our window. I wish we could have stayed for more than two nights.... More

Arrived with husband and four friends to hotel to find that apart from about 60 riggers we were the only guests at the hotel. Didn't bode well! However, all of the staff we met were very friendly and helpfyl, the rooms, while a bit outdated like the rest of the hotel, were clean and cosy. The food and service at... More

Very quiet and peaceful. Had a lift which made this easier for my mother. Older style rooms but still lovely. Food was delicious. Internet access available. Staff were very helpful. Not much else in town to see though.

I wouldn't have chosen this hotel based on Trip Advisor reviews but my husband booked it as part of a 5pm deal and it was much better than expected. Staff were all lovely and friendly, the room was comfortable although small and a little bit tired - it could have used a really good clean as a few of the... More

The hotel is set in the quiet village of Strathpeffer. On arrival we were greeted by friendly reception staff and quickly checked into our room. The room was clean although the furniture was a little tired and dated, the view we had looked out onto an enclosed roof area so not the best. The food was good, a couple of... More
