We were greeted warmly by our host. The property has an amazing view of the harbour. Our room was modern, clean and well- equipped. We chose to have the homemade pizza for dinner and it was delicious. Breakfast was cooked to order and ready when we asked it to be. A lovely place to stay

Wonderful hosts, very accommodating. Lovely spot with a view of the Isle of Mull across the bay. Had one of the best pasta meals in my life. Well worth the drive.

If you imagine a cozy inn by the sea in Scotland, this is it: beautiful coastline, comfortable room, and a friendly innkeeper. We stayed in five different places on this trip, all pretty good, and Lochaline Hotel was our favorite, by far.

Fantastic views from the front of the hotel. If you can get a room looking down the sound of Mull towards Oban there can't be many better views in all of Scotland. The owners are lovely and very attentive to everything. Nice homemade pizza at night in the dining room and the breakfast is very good. The rooms and bathrooms are very modern, warm and and comfortable with all the usual mod cons. The Vertuo Nespresso machine in the rooms was an amazing touch - but I wish I'd asked for more milk as the (UHT) milk sachets spoiled my coffee a bit, but that's really the only fault I could find. My only regret was not bringing my dog as there was a Cockapoo that a guest brought but I didn't establish if the hotel was dug friendly. Overall a very nice hotel and the perfect stop off point if you're waiting to go to Mull.

We were here in bad weather so didn’t get to take advantage of the beautiful setting as much as we would have liked to. Shaley and Peter were wonderful hosts! Very welcoming and full of info about the area and wildlife. Dinner and breakfast were both made to order and lovely. So glad we were able to stay with them!

A great choice
We needed a place to rest on our way north to Orkney. What better place to stay in such a well-run hotel. Nothing was too much trouble. Comfortable beds, delicious, filling breakfasts and friendly hosts and fellow guests made our stay relaxing and restful. If you wanted a peaceful getaway for a few days, here would be the perfect hotel and location.
What a view - can’t get much better!

Friendly warm welcome to this lovely hotel. Still awaiting the finishing touches to the refurb, this is going to be fantastic when finished. The food was delicious and it was lovely to have a little swim off the beach in front. We will be back again.
