“Relaxing spring break”

Reviewed 18 May 2013 NEW

Having booked a four night break more than five weeks in advance and requesting a harbour view, I was somewhat surprised to be directed to a room overlooking the dining room! A very unhelpful receptionist advised me that the hotel was completely full and there was no chance of a room with a view....my daughter called reception from her mobile... More

“Just Horrible”

Reviewed 17 May 2013 NEW

We only booked this because we had trouble gettinga B&B and we regretted it the moment we walked in the door. From the unwelcoming receptionist to the dirty room that had incomplete repairs to the wet linen on the bed, to being in a room that was miles from any external door with no baggage help and 4 fire doors...

“Ok for a night”

Reviewed 18 April 2013

Great external facade and smack in the center of town. When coming into Ullapool on the afternoon ferry from Stornoway it's very easy to find and plenty of parking around the back. The inside feels a bit of a let down though, run down corridors and rooms that are definitely in need a refurbishment. Price was good, so fair value... More

To be fair we did look for a cheap hotel and that is what we got. The room itself was fine comfortable beds, warm and a good shower. The communal areas on the other hand....the lounge area had been modernised and had nice furnishings but if they could somehow break up the space better it would be an improvement. The... More
