Limpieza y amplitud de la habitación
Poca accesibilidad y bastante antiguo
Location suited our requirement and had dinner and breakfast available on site, complimented with a bar service with good selection of drinks.
Dinner was below par and breakfast was not much better.
Breakfast
Rooms need update. Shower is very small.
Good hotel. Good breakfast. Comfortable rooms.
The hotel is very big and (apparently) often receives large groups.
food was excellent
Staff were very friendly and helpful.
Food was average at best, room was clean but bed very hard and walls thin, so noise travelled from other rooms.
It was a reasonable price, given we booked with very little notice in August. The room was tired and basic but had the essentials.
The most annoying thing was that the light for the bathroom was by the front/room door, not by the bathroom, which is particularly frustrating in the middle of the night.
The food was fine. The location is a bit remote.
Location, ambience, friendly staff
Nothing
Camera spaziosa, bagno grande e molto pulito. Personale gentilissimo
Spazi comuni un po' vecchi
Great overall experience.
Friendly staff and clean with a big room
Liked it all
Breakfast was super and staff very friendly.
No complaints except in room 33 the cold tap did not work properly.
todo bien y fácil
.
La amabilidad de todo el personal, la comodidad, la ubicación…
All was very good Room, Dinner and Breakfast.
The food was excellend as was the friendly service
Nice spacious room. Clean and easy to access. Friendly staff.
All good. Perhaps a bit out of the way. But great to stop for the night.
Having read a few adverse comments about this hotel we were a little sceptical about what we were going to experience. On arrival we received a very warm reception from the receptionist. Check in was very efficient. We were allocated room 36 on the ground floor. The bedroom was large,clean and fresh with a large, very comfortable bed. The ensuite bathroom was clean with a good shower although the shower cubicle may be considered by some to be a little on the small side. In the restaurant, staff could not have been more friendly and helpful. Both evening meal and breakfast were good, hot and wholesome. We found this hotel to be of good value and were delighted that we chose to stay here. We would highly recommend to others and if we were looking for somewhere to stay in the Newtonmore area in the future, we would certainly stay again in the 'Highlander Hotel@
Everything was as we would have liked or expected for the money we paid. No adverse comments whatsoever.
Leckeres Frühstück
Zimmer sehr hellhörig
Comfortable beds, clean. Friendly staff.
Evening meal was dreadful. Only one towel in a two person room!
Good comfy room . Plenty of space & comfy beds
Heating in our room wasn’t working & very busy to park at end night as coach loads of people . Rooms above us were a bit creaky .
Nic
Hałas, brzydki wystrój, źle zrobione jajka poche
Staff very pleasant
Hotel needs updated
The friendliness of all the staff and their positive attitude to their work making our stay most enjoyable
The weather
Easy access to rooms,clean and tidy
Accomodating.
size of the bath cubicle. too small. parking lot was full.
Good location. Shower was decent
Whole place felt very cheap, walls seemingly made of balsa wood as there was zero sound proofing. Bed not that comfy.
It’s in a beautiful scenic area and could be made into a beautiful hotel.
It’s basic, as basic can be. Needs a thorough upgrade on everything.
The roominess of the room. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. The location was excellent, especially with having a dog.
Got noisy with guests in other rooms
Camere molto accoglienti, pulite ed ampie. Bagno nuovo, con comoda doccia. Fornitura di biancheria da camera, asciugamani e prodotti da bagno compresa nel prezzo. Reception aperta fino a tardi.
Era tutto ok.
There was nothing not to like. It was clean comfortable and the staff were accommodating and friendly
Bar area is a little stark and uninviting. Communal spaces are all very clean but a little dated/tired
всё было хорошо:номер просторный и идеально чистый,не жаркий,ужин вкусный,а завтрак на следующее утро подавался быстро и атмосфера была приятной!в холле много буклетов про этот район!
Near to Highlands Folk Museum and great breakfast.
Erittäin siisti ja viihtyisä hotelli. Huoneet olivat ihanat ja sängyt todella mukavat. Aamiainen oli herkullinen ja monipuolinen, vaikka ruuhka-aikaan osa tuotteista pääsi hetkellisesti loppumaan. Ilmainen pysäköinti oli suuri plussa. Majoittuisimme täällä mielellämme uudelleen.
Rien
Aucune flexibilité ou compréhension du personnel et de l’établissement qui n’est là que pour son argent. Une catastrophe.
Booked 3 rooms - had to give back room 122 as an awful smell. Hotel very busy - we were a party of 4 adults and 2 children so we had 2+1 child in each room. Reception apologised for the smell. Other 2 rooms were spotlessly clean. All staff were fabulous. Couldn’t do enough for us. Great service.
Could be doing with uodating
L’établissement est bien situé , propre. (La salle de bain venait d’être refaite à neuve) . Le petit déjeuner copieux et à la carte . Le service et l’amabilité des serveurs , remarquable .
L’insonorisation des cloisons de la chambre était perfectible . Nos voisins de chambre se sont mis à discuter pour je ne sais quelle raisons à 5h du matin . On n’aurait pu si je parlais le japonais ou le chinois , participer ..pour l’insonorisation . A refaire . Ils serait bon peut être de rappeler aux clients le respect du voisine l’orque l’on dort à l’hôtel . Trop souvent oublié.
Der Aufenthalt war sehr angenehm und das Personal sehr nett.
Rooms cleaned every day. Beautiful location
The evening meal was disappointing. Parking is a problem if coming back in the evening. Rooms were noisy due to creaky floorboards and low ceilings.
The Highland Games were interesting. Food was OK, Service sometimes a bit slow.8
Es war sauber und groß, viel Personal, es wird sich bei Fragen sofort gekümmert! Topp!
Einrichtung is etwas in die Tage gekommen, das Frühstück war okay
Lokalizacja
Bardzo stary i zniszczony obiekt. Cena zbyt wygórowana.
Very helpful staff. Nice room size and layout, great for the family. Breakfast kept us going through the day of Highland Games.
TV or chat in room below heard late in the evening.
Großes komfortables Zimmer, gutes Frühstücksbuffet, freundliches Personal
The staff were friendly and helpful, good cooked breakfast some pastries would have been nice.
The walls between rooms were very thin I could hear the people next door talking and snoring.
Friendly staff
very small room with table and chair which crowded room
La gentilezza dello staff e la posizione comoda per diverse attrazioni
Struttura un po' attempata
Location was convenient for exploring the wider area. Breakfast was nice although basic. Staff were super helpful & friendly.
Lage perfekt für unsere Bedürfnisse , zuvorkommendes Personal
Zimmer etwas hellhörig, Zimmer verschiedene Renovierungsstände, Frühstück einseitig
Ein schönes Hotel am Rande des Cairngorms Nationalparks mit sehr sauberen Zimmern. Es hat einen urigen, leichten 80er Jahre Stil, der uns aber sehr gefallen hat. Das Personal war sehr freundlich und das Frühstück simpel, aber sehr lecker. Parkplatz war ebenfalls verfügbar.
Evening meal and breakfast both very good children ask for more at breakfast and staff kindly obliged, room was clean and bed comfortable shower a little on small side but adequate water was hot. All in all a pleasant stay made better by some great staff.
Nothing
Staff as always were great and very helpful, Dinner was top quality
Bed was very hard and walls are very thin we had a couple next door and you could hear every word they were saying (which was weel after midnight which didn't help) Breakfast was a bit of a let down we have stayed here alot over the years and you used to get a full breakfast including black pudding & haggis where as now it was 1 slice of bacon, 1 sausage, 1 egg and potato, Could do with the bar opening earlier especially in the summer
Friendly staff. Very clean. Made to feel very welcome.
Breakfast was great and the staff were really nice
Nothing
Vriendelijkheid personeel
Matrassen en schimmel in badkamer
Great location for the Highlands - walking, hiking, biking, skiing. Nice clean comfortable rooms. Good shower. Breakfast available but I left too early in the morning, so don't know what it was like
Nothing to complain about.
La sdb est petite mais refaite à neuf. La literie est confortable
Odeur ancienne de cigarette, ça sentait vraiment mauvais dans notre chambre
Mycket bra hotell, trevlig personal och bekvämt rum.
I rummet där hundägare fick äta frukost var det dålig luft och fönstren gick inte att öppna.
Excellent position for a one-night stay for us as we travelled through the Highlands. Good dinner and breakfast. Large and comfortable family room.
Nothing
Dog friendly. All the staff were very friendly and gave our dog (Ruby) lots of attention and treats. She especially liked the sausage breakfast.
Nothing.
Staff really friendly and helpful. Great location
Nothing
Good value excellent food friendly staff rooms nice and recently renovated great sleep
Communal bar bit dated but clean
Was very quiet. Minimal road noise and very affable staff.
The friendliness of all staff.
Nothing to add
Breakfast for Us with an Assistance Dog was in a Back Room no choice of picking your own Breakfast. Waiter service only
As Above
Staff were very welcoming, and were very polite, and friendly. Made you feel like a valued customer, nothing a bother to them, especially Reception and Dining room staff 😀. Will go back !
Room a bit tired of decor. Windows needs painted. Toilet was lovely though.
Great location for a stop on the way up to northern Scotland. Staff were all very friendly and helpful. Made our dogs feel very welcome too. Reasonable prices and big room.
Very dated, both in terms of decor and menu offered. Food ok but not great.
We had only one night stay with a 3.5 year old. Everything was nice and as expected.
Nothing as such
Sensationelles Abendessen, - sehr gute Küche - Frühstück typisch schottisch
location
Very basic for the money
The hotel showed it age however was clean and tidy with great staff. Good breakfast as all hot orders were cooked to order.
Bed mattress needs replacing.
Spacious room and friendly service.
Very small tv screen and a quite dated appearance.
Een praktisch prima hotel. Had wat je nodig hebt.
Könnyen megközelíthető. Nagyon kedves és figyelmes személyzet. Tiszta szobák.
-
De ligging De kamer en badkamer wel schoon
Troosteloze kamers ,1 lampje naast het bed en je moest aan het bolletje draaien voor aan en uit ,deur die niet goed sloot,2 x open blijven staan, putten in het matras en een erg klein bed ,avond eten ronduit slecht, ontbijt echt karig en de donkere dame loopt rond als een kip zonder kop en alles wat ze doen is totaal niet efficiënt !!!
The staff were really good
Breakfast finished at 9 o’clock, which was too early lots of coach parties
Good value for money, good location
Rooms do need a update/refresh
La posizione
Dinner was plentiful, breakfast was good
Extend the dinner hours 19.30 to 20.30 with last orders at 20.15 was extremely tight when coming off the ferry from Lewis in Ullapool.
Prachtige kamer, heel netjes.
Niets
Location and all the staff were good food, menu short of choice.
Housekeeping, was bad, the beds looked like they had been laid on after the room had been cleaned. TV's are so small for the size of room
Staff were very friendly and helpful. We had a pleasant evening meal and a good breakfast, and the room was clean and comfortable. The hotel is ideally placed for activities in the area, and is very good value for money.
Slecht bed en kussen, veel te warm in de kamer en je hoort elke beweging/stap van mensen boven en naast je
Makkelijk bereikbaar. Laat het aan een doorgaande weg.
Weinig behulpzaam personeel.
Room was exactly what I needed. Clean, comfortable, fairly recent refurb, TV, kettle, wifi, instant hot water in bathroom, good sized shower. No pointless fussy bits. Well organised breakfast team with fast service, decent choice. Friendly reception
Nothing
Spacious clean airy rooms with large clean en-suite. Beautiful powerful easy control temperature shower. Lovely breakfast. Lovely helpful staff. Woke up to the sound of birds and a duck quacking.
A bit spread out and decor of public areas dated.
