The bar a restaurant are lovely, delicious and the staff was great. The hotel however, was ok. Not too good not too bad. The bathroom light turns on by pulling a cable. Through the bathroom we could hear our room neighbors like they were in the same room and I’m guessing they did too. We did enjoy our stay. Way too expensive for the experience.

Very dated hotel and not in a good way. Creaky floors, layers of pain. Looked tired and worn. A massive pothole in the driveway leading in was invisible at night and nearly broke my car. Staff were friendly and food was good so a mixed bag.

This hotel was beautifully situated on Loch Leven, with water views from the rooms and dining area. Our room was in the main building, with a four-posted bed and antique furnishings and lighting fixtures. The staff was friendly and professional (Paul and Karen especially); dinner and bar service were great, as was breakfast the next morning. We had a lovely stay!

The restaurant service was excellent! The property is a little worse for the wear and was chilly. Bed mattress a little thin although bedding was nice. Mostly it was overpriced.

While some of the reviews we read rated this place charming, I would tell you to run the other way. You can surely do better even if you have to drive further. If I am able to post photos I will do so. You will see the mold and dry rot in the molding at the base of the shower. The shower enclosure itself seemed clean but the floor was horrid. The fuzz all over the exhaust fan that has not been cleaned in who knows how long. The dirty carpet. The pull cord to turn on the lights in the bathroom. The sink with separate hot and cold taps and the drain that must be exactly balanced or the sink won’t drain. No tissues in the room. No shampoo. No conditioner. There was a barely enough amount of body wash. One hand towel and one small body towel each. No hair dryer. If you want one you must go to reception to borrow one. No elevator, so fair warning, you will be dragging your suitcase up a curved staircase with narrow stairs. The staff was cordial and efficient. We slept fairly well, so the two twin beds were comfortable . Breakfast offered a full Scottish, cereals, yogurt, toast, coffee or tea. We ate dinner there and the mussels were very good, served with one dry piece of bread. The second night my husband asked for an additional piece of bread. He was served 4 slices, for which we were charged £4! So be careful in how you order. I would not stay here again even if it was free and could not wait to leave.

I love this Hotel. The staff were amazing. Paul and Nick were especially welcoming and reassuring and provided great assistance and ensured our stay was wonderful. I highly recommend this establishment for one or several nights stay. Room accommodations were clean and comfortable. There was a lovely welcome gift in the room as well as tea and coffee and cookies. Breakfast was both buffet and cooked to order every morning. The lounge areas were cozy and comfortable. Rooms had lovely views of the Loch as did the Dining room. Bar area was welcoming and well stocked. I don’t have enough words to express how much we enjoyed our stay at Loch Leven Hotel. Thank you !!
