We stopped off here after our trip up Ben Hope at the end of January. The people – staff and locals – could not have been friendlier. Quite often in remote rural places in some parts of Scotland, the locals can be a bit stand-offish and cold and don’t take terribly well to incomers. But this certainly wasn’t the case... More

We ate in the bar as the reastaurant was holding a private dinner but were offered... More

WOW we were surprised and left really happy and relaxed!!! We stayed in this hotel and we had a lovely time. We stayed for two nights. It was about £30 cheaper per room, per night than the other local hotel and despite the great reviews we thought maybe you get what you pay for but we were pleasantly surprised! The... More

We travel to Tongue every year for the wonderful views and relaxation and decided to make this the place to hold our wedding. We chose the Ben Loyal Hotel as we found the staff very helpful when we started making plans. We were given a guided tour of the hotel and told what they could offer and from that moment... More

Had our retirement "do" last night at the Ben, as before good "craic" super buffet great service including music from local musician Steve Bostok . I'm hoarse this morning and it was a great place to meet the friends we worked with over the last 33 years in the fire service. More

We arrived too late for dinner and the AA rosette award proudly displayed on the wall suggested we should have made the effort! However a few drinks in the welcoming bar was an enjoyable end to the evening. Room was spacious and clean with reasonable facilities and a nice view over fields to the loch. Breakfast was great! Full cooked... More
