We stayed only long enough to book other accommodation up the road. Be really careful which room you select as we thought we were getting the common set up of two twin beds that could be separated, but it was a double not suitable for two friends travelling together.
A fantastic place to stay if you are walking or cycling the GGW. The room was very comfortable, nicely decorated with stunning views over the River Oich. Dedicated space for boots and wet clothing, drying rail in the bathroom for wet gear and plenty of tea and coffee! There is also a secure bike store (outside, but upstairs on the roof space)
Great location and very clean and comfortable. Everything was new, but soundproofing could be better. Firedoors were also noisy and vibrated throughout the room
We stayed one night here, passing through to Inverness and then to Skye. The stay was comfortable and clean and very interesting as we got to watch a boat go through the locks.
we had a room of 4 bunks, which was perfectly fine. The breakfast at the canal center was good and the area surrounding the town was lovely to explore.
I have been traveling for many years, and I don't think I've ever been as comfortable in a hotel room before. Everything was clean, comfortable, quiet and I felt very safe. Traveling with my family is not easy in Scotland, this was fantastic. We had a full bed and two twin bunks. No cots or rollouts. Local meals were amazing. And the canal was super cool. Highly recommended.

Great location and a comfortable room. Does need to address the tap the continually runs and the shower door that won’t close tightly.
But overall, it was a great stay.

Property was clean and in a nice location. Biggest issues:
1. We booked a King bed and it was only a queen.
2. They only provided us with one towel for 2 people
3. There was no way to reach anyone after 5pm. Check in wasn’t even allowed until 430pm.
Messaged the property 4 days ago and still no response.

Great location….room was perfect for us - right by the river. Bathroom was excellent.
The property was clean check in instructions very clear. The only issue we had is a large group booked all the other rooms and gathered in the hallway outside our door and loudly talked very early. Also the walls are very thin so people leaving or checking in will almost sound like they are in your room.
