“wish we'd only booked a bed”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 June 2011
2
people found this review helpful

We stayed here in May. Inn has/had no drinks licence then so no drinks. Our room was fine, very clean and toilettries were in abundance. We did have a good nights sleep on a comfortable bed - there the good things end.
We opted for a meal in the hotel, not a good move. No menu and no prices. We ordered and had to wait a very long time for our food. We started with soup - it was ok but the bread rolls had obviously come out of the microwave and were chewy. Our main meal, after a really long wait, was very low standard. More than half the plate was chips and the veg were from a packet of frozen. There was an unbelievable amount of food on the plate, pity most of it was left. My husband had a goulash, again a huge amount with most of it going back. It tasted ok, just the portion was well above what any normal human would eat. The owner seemed to boast that most people cant finish the portions. I felt this was an old idea to pile the food high and have most of it returned to the kitchen to get rid of. The dining room was very cold and the other guests did complain and a gas heater, along with the huge red gas cylinder was light. The last time I saw a heater like that it was on a building site and did not think they were allowed in a hotel environment.
Breakfast next morning did not start till 9.00am (Sunday) and we did ask the owner the night before the time he started serving but got no answer so we appeared at 8.00am. Nothing. The cereal was out and we poured out some each. The rice crispies were soft so I started again with the cornflakes and they were ok. We took them to our room and put on the kettle only to find that most of the things in the tea tray were out of date. Tea and coffee out of date I dont mind but I draw the line at using the little milk straws. We ate what we could and got ready to leave. We met the owner down stairs making the breakfast and he did offer us a cooked one but we needed to leave due to the lateness in the day. He gave us some apples and tablet to take away. The tablet was good.
Payment had to be by cash and again no explanation as to how the charges were made up as no bill was produced.

“Repeat Guests”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 February 2009

I've stayed at the Corran Inn several times, in three different rooms, and will always opt to stay here if I need to overnight in the area. It's got character, is spotlessly clean, the staff and owners have always been friendly and helpful, and dinner/breakfast delicious. Convenient location too!

  • Liked — Comfortable, clean rooms; fabulous meals; friendly people.
  • Disliked — Be sure to book a table with a view of the ferry.

Only problem was the beds were a little on the small side and were quite uncomfortable. Other than that it was a very nice place.

“Just don't go there.”

Hated this place, the food is awful, the owner is a bully and doesn't like old men. Has he not realised he may be lucky enough to be one eventually!
The website looks fantastic, just shows how you can be fooled.

  • Disliked — The attitude of the owner

“We really enjoyed our stay at the Corran”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 August 2008

person found this review helpful

We really enjoyed our stay at the Corran Inn.
Our room, albeit quite small, had a lovely view over the loch and had been recently done up.We were told that they are doing up all the rooms to this standard. It was decorated and furnished in a stylish contemporary style and the bed with white egyptian cotton linen and warm cosy duvet was sooo.. comfortable. The bathroom was quite small but big enough, with the nice touch of a heated towel rail and luxurious soft white fluffy towels. Above all, it was all spotlessly clean.
We also enjoyed our meals at the Corran which were homely and reasonably priced and we found the portion size just right. Breakfasts were also plentiful and very good, esp the Mallaig kippers.
The bar, despite its outside appearance, was always very welcoming and friendly. We had a lot of fun in there sampling the whisky and ales and chatting with the barmen and locals and other guests. There is also a comfortable lounge with a good selection of books where It was very nice to to sit and relax.
We always found the staff very friendly and helpful and very attentive to their guests, in particular Ed who looked after us so well during our stay. Top marks for friendliness!

  • Liked — The friendliness and the lovely bed.
