It was odd that they leave breakfast at your door the night before in a bag. This includes yogurt, we chose not to eat the yogurt since it could not be refrigerated.

Went to check in.
Staff asked for name then took key and took us to the room. Then left without any explanation or instructions. So poor communication when checking in. When checking in we stood at bar next to the radio which was very loud and I am deaf and couldn't hear or understand the staff.
Staff rushed to the room before we got to bottom of the stairs.
Stairs are very steep and wonky which is very dangerous but not good for people who are unsteady on their feet.
Room:
Big room and big bathroom
Bed very low and uncomfortable to sleep on. Wicker chairs in the room are so uncomfortable and feels like it ready to collapsed (should be in garden not bedroom!)
Curtain doesn't fit or covered the window so the sun shines through the gaps. Wardrobe wonky sits on a piece of wood on the front. Above the bed the chip wood wallpaper is peeling off due to dampness. If sleeping on 1 side of the bed then tall people has to watch thier head due to the roof slope as thier no warning. Find that the kettle and TV next to each other dangerous as no room to do anything and the heat from kettle not good being close to TV.
Bathroom is lovely but glass shelf is in wrong place as id you have a wash or brush teeth at the sink you hit the shelf with your head. And in bathroom there lots of crack in the wall.
Breakfast not very good as never been explained on booking or at restaurant until we asked a member of staff. Which found out it a pack lunch but it at door overnight. Due no staff staysover

Great stay at the Shandwick. It was no-frills but ticked all the boxes; clean, warm, comfortable, convenient and safe. I can recommend it for an overnight stay.

We stayed in a chalet type hut, outside the Inn. It was very cold, when we arrived. We put the heaters on and it did warm up. It was ok but i didn't feel , it was the conventional hotel room, we were anticipating. Continental breakfast delivered at 7pm was good.

adequate for a one-night stay

Accommodation in the small \"bothy\"-type house is not up to standard, the bathroom requires refurbishing. Breakfast - although adequate in this form - was served in a paper bag left in front of the door. Everything was clean and tidy. The outside could be landscaped to make it more friendly. The food in the hotel was good and the staff very friendly and helpful.

Great A9 stop

Needed a quick ‘pit stop’ along the A9 so chose here as it couldn’t be more convenient! Busy place on a Saturday evening but quickly welcomed and told I had the ‘cottage in the car park’ which it literally was. Externally it looked a bit tired, but inside it was large and clean. It doesn’t have any view (one small window) but you’d only see the car park anyway! I thought I might find it a bit noisy but it didn’t become a worry as most cars had gone early. I had a meal in the pub which was good ‘pub grub’ and all of the young staff were good.
Breakfast was novel - a picnic hamper outside the door with cereal/pastry and fruit to enjoy in the room - suited me fine.
The whole place could do with some money spending externally so it looked as good as the service that is given.

We stayed in the cottage which stands separate to the main building and it was pleasant. We had our evening meal in the main building and there was a good selection of foods at typical prices if comparing to pub food in a town. Breakfast is Continental and guests expecting a full cooked breakfast need to be aware of this.

It was ok, cracked sink, cracked tiles on the bathroom floor, strong smell of cleaning chemicals but also means it had been well cleaned which is a positive.
Food was good but we have been overcharged on our food bill, an extra main course was added. We paid then was offered a copy of the bill which I didn’t check until we had left - silly me. Make sure you get the bill and check it before you pay!!

I shall email the property to see if I can get it resolved.

Nice hotel with good food!

It was a nice hotel with a restaurant below. We cancelled our dinner plans to eat there after we read up on the reviews and we are quite glad we did. The friendly and helpful staff saw to our needs. The basket was filled with good stuff as we enjoyed it in bed that morning. Very nice hotel...good food...would stay again.

A Bit Tired, but Met My Needs

My stay was, in a word, adequate. The staff were friendly and efficient. The restaurant/pub was very good. The bed was reasonably comfy. So, my basic needs were met. However, the room and restaurant were both a bit tired, with the vinyl peeling off some of the seats in the restaurant and the room feeling a bit on the damp side with carpeting that was not particularly nice. So if you are looking for basic accommodation and don't mind the aesthetics, then this is a good choice.
