Stayed here for 1 night on our travels in Scotland. Lovely room and bathroom, big comfy bed and delicious breakfast. Cannot comment on evening meal which we thought was a bit pricey and ate at the Boathouse Restaurant overlooking the Loch which was great. Lovely sitting rooms with open fireplace and sweets in bowl at Reception. When we checked out... More

We booked 1 of the studio's for 1 night. We had a warm welcome, and discovered a nice decorated room with a large bathroom (with excellent heating!). The room is quiet and the bed excellent! We made a reservation in the restaurant for the 5 course set dining at £45.00 per person. What a wonderful experience, and a good choice... More

The Lovat is situated just off the main road into Fort Augustus, there is eample parking, with very well kept gardens, and open views over Loch Ness. The centre of Fort Augustus with its pubs, shops, and the famous Canal Locks into Loch Ness are approximately 400 yards from the Hotel entrance. We stayed at the Lovat for three nights... More

We were a party of six looking for a hotel close to the River Oich and salmon fishing for a week. We booked the Master Double Bedrooms, which were very comfortable with huge bathrooms. The location of the hotel and views over Loch Ness were perfect. Lovely sitting rooms with open fireplaces, comfortable seating and plenty of room. But the... More

We stayed at the hotel for 2 nights - my husband has visited it many times before when run by different owners. This is easily the best he has ever known it. From our greeting on arrival we enjoyed every minute. The hotel is spotlessly clean, well decorated and every member of staff we met was pleasant and efficient and... More

We were part of a wedding party which took over the hotel for the weekend. I have often used Trip Advisor and thought I must leave a review but this time I thought I really should reward this place. The bride and groom had to switch venues at short notice so the Lovat had 4 weeks notice to get the... More

This was our first visit but will not be our last. If you are travelling around the Loch Ness area looking for comfort,cleanlieness, value for money in a stunning location then look no further, you have found a three star hotel that runs as a four plus. I couldn't fault it in any way.

We stayed here a couple of weeks ago on a trip around Scotland. Lovely accommodation. We originally booked an annexe room but decided to upgrade when we got there and they sorted us out with a massive room upstairs for another £20 or so with a huge bathroom and really comfortable room. The dinner in the hotel restaurant was absolutely... More

What an absolute fantastic 3 night stay myself and my partner have just had at the Lovat Hotel in Fort Augustus Loch Ness. My partner has a garlic and onion allergy and right from booking via the internet the staff "Nikita Otto" was firing emails at me asking if they could help. The Lovat even prepared a special menu and... More

Me and my partner went on our first summer break together last summer and stopped off at several places. By far the pick of the places we stayed in was the Lovat! The room we had was amazing with a big bathroom! It looked over Loch Ness and a nice romantic place for our first break. The food was amazing... More
