From booking a table through to an enjoyable meal the staff and in particular the manager really made it an excellent evening. The situation and views from the restaurant are excellent and only a few minutes walk from the town center.

Had another excellent stay, cracking barman! Good selection of whiskies, good breakfast, all the staff were welcoming and friendly. Beautiful place. The balcony is shared but didn't present any problems, it's a beautiful view. Can't wait to go back.

Booked a triple room for a long weekend with friends. Hotel was perfect for us. Rooms were clean and a good size. The staff were friendly, very helpful and kept us well entertained in the bar. Location of hotel ideal, both for wandering to bars/restaurants in Ullapool and exploring the wider area by car. Very good value for money -... More

Like other reviewers, I would rate this hotel highly for its facilities and value for money. The room I stayed in was large, with a great view over the Loch. A few reviews have said that the hotel and its facilities are slightly dated, but everything works and nothing seems worn out. Free wifi and plenty of complementary drinks in... More

There was a wedding on during our stay as well as some folks taking advantage of the hill walking and another group touring the highlands in sportscars. The Hotels got a great view out over loch Broom and... More

We booked three nights based on ratings from Trip Advisor and photos. Not a bad place, but I didn't travel that far to have a clean efficient big hotel as my home. The Royal caters to lots of senioe citizens on big bus tours. When a lot of people use a place they skew the survey results. McDonalds and Pizza... More

Stayed overnight B & B in this hotel waiting for the next day ferry to Stornoway. Staff are very friendly and breakfast was superb. Would recommend paying a little bit extra for a balcony room as the views are sublime. It also suits smokers as there is a table and chairs outside every balcony room.

Maybe as we were part of a large group it meant we got a different level of service, but I don't think that should mater - we still spent well earned money and it costs nothing to be polite! We'd just driven for 4 hrs from Edinburgh, and on arrival my wife got the key as good as thrown at... More

Did not book this hotel personally part of a Rabbie,s tour but can only speak highly of service and position. Immaculate very big rooms. Breakfast was lovely and a good start to the day, not the greatest variety but very Scotish.

Brilliant hotel in fantastic surroundings with staff that could not be more friendly and accommodating. The General manager Russell is extremely helpful and always happy to point you in the right direction of things to do and see in the local area. The rooms are immaculate and extremely spacious, would highly recommend going for a loch view room as the... More
