We arrived for our stay awaiting our ferry the next day, straight away the girl who "greeted" us barely talked and didn't seem capable of lifting her feet when walking which is a personal pet hate she gave the impression of being disinterested. We went straight to our room which was room 8 a twin at the back with a... More

Stayed here overnight in May 2011. Ideal location for touring / sightseeing. Rooms very clean and warm. Equipped with a TV. Seemed a wee bit pricey but it was hard to get accommodation anywhere in Ullapool that weekend. Good Scottish breakfast provided. A bit difficult making arrangement over the telephone as I had to phone back and speak to someone... More

Went twice whilst on a weeks break, and had very nice good value for money food. Very accommodating with kids meals being smaller versions of adult meals. Brilliant location looking out onto loch broom. Will definately go again. More

On a very wet day we came across this little pub and were very glad we did. We had some tasty soup and lovely fresh sandwiches. The interior was attractive and great view of the sea front. More

I stayed for just one night en route from Stornoway to Inverness, booked it at the last minute and was very pleased with both the room and the food. Having arrived on the ferry, the hotel was just a few minutes walk along the sea front. Felt comfortable as a lone traveller. The room was spotless and comfortably furnished and... More

Location: Right on the water front. Parking: None on-site, not easy to find with street heavily populated. Room: Small, dark, no bath in en-suite. The window facing on a small light well was broken. Meals: Breakfast and dinner well-cooked and reasonably priced. Service: Probably the worst we have ever experienced in our lifetimes. We had booked months before over the... More

I will try to be objective about my experience at the Ferry Boat Inn. After a long day's travelling Ullapool looked enticing and the FBI certainly has a lovely setting facing across the bay. I was less than happy to find that despite having booked and paid in advance for two rooms that only one was available - the manager... More

Very comfortable room no 9 double with ensuite, with restricted view over loch. The evening food and beer in the Ferry boat Inn was excellent but the breakfasts were not of the same standard. The location for exploring Ullapool and the area was very good. More

I booked this hotel using and paying with their online booking system, travelled 4 hours only to be told on arrival that they didn't have a room available by a very unfriendly member of staff. More
