While this hotel is quite beautiful and has a wonderful location alongside a lake, our experience was not great. The front desk staff were very unhelpful, bordering on rude. We arrived shortly after check-in and were told that we couldn’t have breakfast until 8 AM despite opening at seven because the previous slots had been booked. When we went We arrived shortly after check-in and were told that we couldn’t have breakfast until 8 AM despite opening at 7 because the previous slots had been booked. When we went down the next day at 7:45 the dining room was almost completely empty. The room was not cleaned well, the floor clearly hadn’t been vacuumed, and the shower drain backed up almost immediately once the water was on. The buffet breakfast was a complete disappointment, none of the food was really that good despite having multiple options. So if quantity is your jam, then this will be great because there are lots of options. This was by far the most expensive hotel we booked our entire Scotland trip, and the value is just not there for what it costs.

Loved our stay at Isles of Glencoe. I wish I booked more days there. It was so nice to open the windows at night to let the fresh mountain air in! The beds were comfortable. This was the best stay I’ve had in Scotland so far in regards to sleep. Our TV didn’t work but we didn’t care as we were not there to watch TV.

The location is great. The included breakfast was good and had a great dinner at the onsite restaurant. Service was good as well!

The front desk staff seemed a bit confused whenever we interacted with them but I guess they were just new and needed training.

Would definitely stay again if I ever return to beautiful Glencoe.

Overall the stay was okay. There are very few options in this area and the other popular hotel is owned by the same company as this one. Check in was easy but you need to make dinner and breakfast reservations on arrival. Breakfast is a buffet so unclear why reservations were required. This is a very pet and family friendly hotel. The pool area looked nice but was a bit too busy to use. There were loads of dogs in the dining area. I don’t mind folks that want to vacation with their pets but smelling wet dog and hearing barking is not a pleasant dinner experience. The rooms are spacious but very cold. The heater works on sensor but didn’t seem to be working in one of the rooms. So cold you couldn’t see out the windows (frosted over) so no views. The rooms were clean and soundproof, which was good since we were on the first floor right by the public restrooms. Shower was very good — lots of hot water but steam lingered for quite awhile. Nice sized bar and seating area. Loch views from dining room were idyllic. Overall the food was average. Wouldn’t stay there again.
