A pleasant surprise. We had a comfortable renovated room, the pizza was excellent and the huge huge lounge with free ping pong and pool and other games was an unexpected treat. One comment for ownership and management - your staff is remarkably good - please reward them adequately for their hard work. Without them you would not have such a nice hotel.

Lower price than competitors but at a low standard
Hotel is located in a great place to explore Loch Lomond, Glencoe and Ben Nevis area. However the hotel itself is way past it's prime and in great need of renovations and touch ups of general areas and rooms.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Staff were very friendly. Rooms were newly decorated but communal areas need updating. The fountain in the lobby sprays water on the floor making it a slip hazard and the lifts weren't working. There is a closed down hotel next door (the old MGM Royal) this was a bit off putting. But overall a pleasant stay. Top marks to the staff.

Great scenery located hotel
A large hotel in a beautiful scenic location. The public areas of this Hotel are well apointed and give a good impression. Nice seating and conservatories to the lobby and front. The service is exceptionally good. Staff helpful friendly and make you feel like a valued guest. What lets it down is the tiredness of old poor decor fixture and fittings in the room we had. Cracked sink ill fitting windows wind blows through and broken furniture. The hospitality tray excellent and bed room and bathroom clean and comfortable. Some rooms looked to have newer modern decor. If that can be raised for all it would make it much better
