Dunollie Hotel

After an overnight flight to Scotland I appreciated the warm room, good shower, and wonderful hot Full Scottish breakfast!

Extremely limited and unsafe parking. Parking on property is very limited and at the bottom of a steep gravel drive. You must park on the foot path in front of the uncovered hotel entrance to load and unload luggage. When we checked in at the front desk, I asked the way to the lift and was informed by the receptionist that the hotel did not have a lift. I advised that we had one person in our group on crutches. Receptionist responded by saying we should have mentioned this when we made reservations. The person fell in Edinburgh after we had made our reservations some months in advance. Our room was on the second floor so we had to drag heavy luggage up 4 flights of stairs. Only after watching us struggle to navigate the stairs did the receptionist offer any help with our luggage. Halfway up the last flight of stairs, he stopped to say, pretty good for a man of 70. This he said as I, a woman of 80! had just managed to get my large suitcase to the top of the last flight of stairs. After unloading the luggage for 4 people, we were finally able to find a parking spot at a petrol station and coop near the hotel. Oh yes, if you lose your room key and have to request a replacement, you will be given one without being told there is a 25 pound fee for the lost key. I gladly paid but did not find out about this charge until I received a call from the hotel while driving to our next destination some miles away.

Dated but pretty comfortable. Not great parking. Seemed pretty pricey for the quality.

Mattress was rock hard. We got to check in just after a bus arrived. The woman at the counter was amazingly quick in getting them all their keys. We were so by pleasantly surprised.

Very nice hotel. Dinner at the restaurant was also very good.

Difficult parking..

Nice hotel in nice area. Food was good as was breakfast.

The staff at the downstairs restaurant are horrific. Incredibly rude. Most other options in the area asked for a reservation so the second night we ate at the bar and it was much better. Hotel is water front and central to the little shops in the town. Quick breakfast cart next to it by little shops where they were very pleasant. Slightly dated and little parking. It was a last minute booking as the first fell through. Not too far from some of the site seeing locations if you have a car or book a tour.

I stayed in room 3, and when someone was moving on top of my room, the ceiling would make a lot of friction sound, which was annoying and affected my rest

This is a good location if you are working on a mid range budget this would be a clean decent choice. The waterfront location allows for easy lakefront access. A few items to be aware of - tour groups stay here and make noisy early morning departures and there is much better food nearby than at the hotel restaurant.
