“Superb Food & Great Atmosphere”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 December 2011

people found this review helpful

Knowing the hotel had been taken over by a local family I was looking forward to my first meal at the hotel. We took my sister and her husband for an evening meal and we were not disappointed. The goats cheese starter was delicious and the sirloin steak was huge, our plates were absolutely full and everything tasted excellent. Sadly, we were too full to try any dessert. Very good value for money, excellent choice of wines and my brother in law was in his element. As he is a whisky connoisseur and was overawed by the choice of whiskies including some rare whiskys to try.
Ailsa, Lachie, Duncan and all the staff made me and my family very welcome. I have been several times since and I can only re-iterate the above on every occassion.

“De-lish-ous Sunday Dinner!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 November 2011

people found this review helpful

Knowing the Glenmoriston had recently changed hands we decided to try it out for Dinner last Sunday evening. What a good decision!

Lovely fresh Bread roll, Melt in the mouth, bursting with flavour absolutely lovely Aberdeen Angus Roast Beef with proper Yorkshire Pudding, Roast Potatoes, Mash and four veg., was the 'Sunday Dinner' plus a Gravy Boat with extra gravy (how unusual is that?) and very good Horseradish. Others had Lamb shanks which looked absolutely lovely too and, I was told, were full of flavour, tender and quite devine, to quote.

You had the choice of Home made Scotch Broth soup for a starter or Fruit Crumble and Custanrd to complete this feast. None of us could manage three courses and we opted for the Fruit Crumble, Home made and again, quite delicious. All prices very reasonable, under £15, with Coffee and Fudge Tablet on the side.

The Hotel is undergoing a great deal of re-furbishment and as we did not stay the night cannot comment on the Bedrooms, as yet? The new owner Ailsa and her son Lachie have very high standards and I am sure the Bedrooms will be as clean, cosy, comfortable and sparkling as is the rest of this lovely old Hotel.

The Glenmoriston Arms deserves all the TLC it is now getting, it is a charming and beautiful old building which has suffered to a large extent due to having changed hands three times in the past few years. I do feel it is now in safe hands!

Room Tip: Did not sleep there this time, but all public rooms and toilets absolutely spotless and sparkling.

“Superb all the way !”

Received a very warm welcome upon arrival into this immaculate hotel. All staff friendly, helpful & attentive. Our food was delicious, very fair price, and there was a huge (100 or so) whiskies to choose from...excellent choice. My favourite was the Glenmorangie 18 yr, so smooth and tasteful, well worth trying. It was a shame having to leave, though there will absolutely be another visit soon. Thanks to all.

“A great place to stay along the Great Glen Way”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 August 2011

I stayed for one night in this hotel while walking the West Highland and Great Glen Ways. I stayed in a double room with ensuite.

There are some local B&B options around Invermoriston but this is the only hotel. I booked here because I recalled it from 4 decades past.

This is a very historic hotel which has been run by the same family for of the order of 13 generations I believe. It has lots of character and has been well refurbished over the years. The hotel is reputedly haunted by several ghosts - I did not encounter any on this stay!

My room was a reasonable sized double which was clean and well decorated. The bed was very comfortable. The ensuite bathroom was the best I came across in several weeks of staying in B&Bs in the UK.

The staff were generally friendly and helpful. A couple seemed a tad aloof.

The bar was fine and offered good evening meals. I was joined by three other walkers for dinner and we all enjoyed our meals and the setting was quite convivial. The range of malt whiskies was good.

This is a fine place to stay on the Great Glen Way and I would definitely stay again. My rating of Very Good rather than Exceptional reflects the price of rooms and therefore I have discounted my ranking a little on that basis.

“What a Hidden Gem”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 August 2011

people found this review helpful

After having a nightmare at Polmailly House Hotel which we bought via the rip off merchants KGB deals, we luckily stumbled accros this absolute gem!! New owners had just taken over 2 days before our stay, I can honestly say, as a well travelled couple, this is probably the most charming little establishment I have had the pleasure of staying at. Taking over a business is stressful enough but Ailsa made us so welcome!! First night we stayed in a super King room, which was lovely, then the next we moved to the 4 poster room, with a proper high tech jacuzzi bath. Food here is incredible, and you must try the deep fried poach egg at breakfast!!! wow. Dinner was huge and Hamish was an incredible chef!! A hugs selection of whiskeys await, and after sinking about 9 doubles on our second night we stumbled up to our 4 poster bed and awoke to low hanging cloud covering the hills, before speeding accross Loch Ness on a rib. All in all a fantastic stay at a fantastic little Hotel, we will defo be back, and Ailsa watch out, cos we are bringing the kids!!!!! haha

Room Tip: Go for the 4 poster!!!
