Bedroom old looking very grubby hotel has not seen paint for years partly painted in bedroom but generally dirty looking fortunately bed was clean Room was not cleaned during our stay Could be very nice place if owner bothered to tidy it up Obviously relying on plenty overspill from inverness to fill rooms so don’t worry about condition of rooms I believe there are a few nicer rooms for vip

Filthy, dirty hotel room.
Pretty nasty. Room was really not clean at all. Floor was dirty and looks like only the centre of the room is ever vacuumed. Sheets had crumbs all over it and the bed was not even made properly. Even the cups for drinking water were dirty. Just all around felt like a dingy room. Water pressure in the bathroom is non existent.

Overnight in Strathpeffer...
This charming hotel sits on a hill above the town center. It has spectacular views from the rooms. The lobby, bar, sitting area downstairs is incredible with an old-time feeling. The rooms are basic but larger than expected. No a/c in the rooms though, just an open window.
Looking up at the hotel.

Outdated decor. My mountain view room was basic clean and comfortable however my colleagues family room had dirty tables and a little smelly. Dinner menu had very or no options, one fish, one veg and one meat option and thats it. The ingredients were or very poor quality. Only had the choice of scrambled eggs for breakfast thats all. Wifi signal in the rooms is very poor.

Travelling through Scotland with my daughter we booked this place on the day as there was very little left during holiday season so I wasn't expecting much given the modest price and that it was still available. Having looked up that it was the former station hotel (the station is long gone) I was expecting faded grandeur. It transpired that it had faded to nothing. From entering the dodgy double doors which had replaced what was clearly once a sensible revolving door it was clear this would be a disastrous stay. The receptionist doubled as a bar man - long wait and staff went incognito with no branded kit. Then the lift didn't work and there was no-one to carry our heavy bags up the large number of stairs. The room was dirty - lumps of dirt under the bath mat, a stain on a bed sheet, windows probably last cleaned in the last decade, heavily stained carpet. Bathroom suite c1974, shower took way too long to get to suitable temperature. They didn't even have fitted sheets on the beds with the inevitable consequence that the sheets came loose in the night. With all this we were not going to dine there in the evening or breakfast (noticed very few people were) and made an exit ASAP. Camping would have been much more comfortable and clean. Don't go! The one plus point was the staff were doing their best on shoestring resources - one kind chap put some food items in the hotel fridge for us.

Big hair in the sink when we arrived. Rooms are very old and outdated. Place is obviously used as accomodation for local tradesmen so makes it very difficult to get a parking space if arriving after 5pm. Hotel has huge potential. Very disappointing

Needs better cleaning
Hotel is a grand building in a lovely setting. Breakfast is very good. Disappointed by the room cleanliness and standards. Our room smelled of cigarette smoke. The carpets hadn't been vacuumed and were quite stained and covered in fluffy, ooze, etc. Reported this to reception and no other rooms were available. As they said, they done the best they could to vacuum it. Didn't get rid of the smell of cigarettes though. Shame really as it is a reasonable hotel.

Absolute dump.
Absolute dump. I was booked for three nights but left after 1. First room had only half a shower screen, next room still had dirty towels in the bathroom the room I spent the night in had a hole in the wall and I'm glad it didn't rain as I'm sure that water would have been leaking through the roof going by the staining and flaking paint. The shower head was black with mold and at best ran at a trickle.
