Gezellig hotel met vriendelijk personeel, prima voor een nacht.

Er was een gezellige bar/restaurant aanwezig en het personeel was erg vriendelijk. Mooi uitzicht over het water.

Bed was voor mij (1.86m) aan de korte kant en het hotel lag naast een weg waar erg hard gereden wordt (dit is wel hinderlijk qua geluid). In de buurt was verder ook niet veel te doen.

I wouldn't go back.

The breakfast was well prepared, filling and what I was looking for. Old style - sets you up for the day. The lady running the breakfast room was very competent. It was busy and she did all orders and service herself.

The furniture in the bedroom was weird. It was as if all the legs had been reduced in height. I am over 6ft tall and couldn't sit on the stool provided and get my legs under the very low desk. It may suit people who are nearer 5 ft tall. The restaurant was overpriced and under delivered. The waiter looked like he had just come in from doing a days work in a garage. A raggy, dirty t-shirt might be okay in some trendy, alternative lifestyle inner city places but it didn't impress me. Probably my fault but I didn't realise this hotel was not in a town so there is no where to go in the evening and no alternative places to eat which is probably why they get away with what they offer.

pretty good

The rooms were lovely, very spacy and clean. The whole hotel was nice and the people were very helpful. The view was great. The breakfast was pretty nice. (possibility to order something warm (like eggs, bacon, etc.) but also nice buffet.

The food in the nearby restaurant wasnt great, but it was alright. The hotel is in the middle of nowhere (at least it feels like it), but for us that was alright.

I wouldn’t stay here again. It was grossly overpriced.

Location. Not many alternatives on this route .

Poor first impression. Windows at front of hotel need cleaning. Step needs sweeping. Bad smell from the drain in the car park near path entrance to hotel. Hotel is pad, out dated and seen better days. In our bedroom a socket didn’t work, pillows were old, flat and uncomfortable. The toilet area and surrounding floor are smelled of urine. Needed a good clean with bleach.

A very comfortable stay

Clean,comfortable, hot showers, great breakfast, friendly staff and a very good nights rest! The kids loved their beds with some cute touches that made them feel at home.

With a bit of tlc this could be a great hotel. Food is great and staff are good.

The hotel is pretty run down but the staff were good, helpful and friendly. The food was surprisingly good, we had evening meal and breakfast (there really isn't anywhere else to go!)

The hotel needs a major update.

A hotel stuck in the past, but in a good way?!

We stayed here because Ullapool was fully booked and it was the closest hotel we could find. It was very, very inexpensive so I didn't have high expectations at all. That being said, although very (very, very) dated, the facilities were clean and the staff was very pleasant. THE BEST part though, was the live folk music at the attached bar. Our sons, aged 22 to 16, were invited to play in the 2 hour session. There was also a Piper that stopped by and joined in. It was our favorite night of the whole 2 week Scotland tour!! If you want to immerse yourself in a rural Scottish experience, be sure to come on one of their music nights. It was a blast!

The hotel was large and devoid of guests. Parts of the hotel were clearly unused for long stretches of time giving it a bit of an abandoned feel. The furniture was very dated. But everything was clean and the rooms were a generous size.

We enjoyed our stay, but felt it was overpriced

Breakfast was lovely Evening meal was lovely Staff were really nice Location was beautiful Our room was comfortable and clean

We felt that it was quite expensive really. We paid £175 for a small double room. The evening meal was nice, but the menu was very limited.

Very good

Lovely hotel situated at the side of a sea loch with the most beautiful sunset I have seen anywhere. This is truly a special spot for a hotel, and well worth a stay if you are on the NC500.

The décor of the bathroom is slightly old, but perfectly clean and in working order.

Market “demand” may oblige higher prices, not sure what is gained by taking the proverbial out of the market

The farmers shieling half a mile up the road has comparable decor, comfort and access to running water. Doubt the farmer will charge anything, let alone three figures.

Brilliant, comfortable, outstanding evening meal and great standard breakfast, brilliant scenery.

Brilliant...That's all that needs saying

Everything could always be better, but seriously, for where the hotel is, the magnificent scenery, the service and everything else, this was as near to "as good as it gets" as it gets.

Had a fantastic visit, even caught a small seatrout in the loch.

The setting was fantastic and the facilities and staff great. Food and bar were excellent.

When we pulled up it wasn't clear that the hotel was open, some external lighting or signage would help

A welcome sight on a Scottish dreak evening and a great stay, especially if traveling in a group.

Let's be clear, this hotel is in the middle of nowhere, but what a great find ! not all modern and brand new, but full of character and when thundering down the road towards Dundonnell on motorcycles in pouring rain on the trip of a lifetime NC500 the Dundonnell really delivers with a warm reception from staff and a very cosy oldie world feel to a hotel that yes may have been overlooked in recent years in décor, but once dried out (yes it rains a lot in west cost Scotland) and sitting in the lounge in sumptuous arm chairs with a group of friends, with a dram in hand from the bar, (evening meal already taken care of with the excellent restaurant/bar with great traditional menus, yes there's Haggis options) overlooking the immense and moody scenery that only west coast Scotland can offer, then surely there is no better place to be :)

Not much here I feel one can defame, there's the strange but true, discolouration of the water as it come straight of the moors (so a little brown), but its suitably treated, safe and it is well documented in the hotel website, reception and in the rooms.. I drank more than my fair share (all those drams of an evening need some watering down before bedtime) and had no issues. Note of course that this stuff is the base element of what is universally recognised as the best Whiskey's in the world ! so it cant be all that bad :)

had a lovely stay.

really clean and comfortable even though it was dated, it was suited for needs. Loved that the family suite had a separate space within the room for the children and that the hotel had put little child friendly bedding and extras on their beds to make it comfortable for them.

The hotel food was a little expensive given it was one of the only places in miles to eat. very nice and tasty though.
