After a rainy day, this place was such a recomfort. Amazing house with a great view of the ocean, and overall best price quality ratio we had so far in Scotland.

Suitable for 1 night but needs huge refurbishment
The lady on reception was lovely and very helpful! ☺️ Other than a comfy bed, there’s not really anything else positive to say about this hotel unfortunately! It’s VERY dated and definitely needs a refurbishment of sorts.. the lift felt like a death trap, the floors were SO creaky, the TV didn’t work at all and the remote itself was so dirty ☹️ it seemed like no dusting had been done in a long time.. the bed had a huge stain down the left hand side.. I presume it was a spilt cup of coffee but who knows! It’s sad as this place from the outside is beautiful and definitely has the potential to be amazing, just not the way it is at the moment ☹️

The hotel was lovely to stay at. It was well kept and easy for parking access for all and had a lift for those with trouble on the stairs. It came with a staff that was helpful and conscientious. There was nice walks adjacent to the beach that were very nice but bring a windbreaker for those windy and wetter days. The local museum was excellent and had lots of interesting history as well as a well supplied gift shop. The local pub down the way but still walkable for most people and had good food, as did the hotel itself. We enjoyed our three days at the hotel as it was close enough to drive to other local sites too. I would definitely check out Ullapool, which is about an hour away. I am not picking on this hotel particularly but ALL of the hotels need to up their game with recycling bins. The education about plastic waste seems more pronounced within the small isle trusts where fishing is more essential but still seeing lots of plastics just thrown into the garbage bins and some on the beaches. Plastics is a huge problem worldwide so looking forward to more pronounced awareness building globally.

The hotel rooms have seen better days and the food is OK, but Gairloch Hotel something, it has old school charm. Sat right on top of the beach, with helpful, friendly staff I would definitely come back. Oh, and while breakfast is expensive, it’s not bad at all!

The building is grand and old so squeaky floors are to be expected. The room was quiet and comfortable. The bathroom was old-fashioned but fine even though the shower pressure was weak. Check-in at 3pm was nice but the old-fashioned paper check-in procedure meant there was a queue so it took time. This is mostly unnecessary as they held most guest information and could have pre-filled the check-in paper forms. The hotel has a charm of its own and I hope it preserves the “old-fashioned” and uses it to its advantage as a point of difference.

Although our room was not ready when we checked in, the lift broke so we were unable to go up to it anyway. The staff quickly found an alternative ground floor room for me and my disabled husband so saved the day. A comfortable night was spent here!
