I didn't read the reveiws before booking in and am glad I didn't otherwise I would have missed a lovely experience. Paul, who rents the hotel from owners seemed to be almost on his own running the place but was friendly and helpful. Yes its not the cleanest place I ever stayed in (although I have stary in worse!)and yes... more

After walking a 10 mile day on west highland way we happiily found the closest pub in the odd town centre of Kinlochleven. After the first much needed sip of beer we began to enquire to the staff about how on earth we get up the hill to the white building looming above the town - we had earlier spotted... more

On arrival it was dark and one light showed us the way to the bedrooms - the stairway was like a "close" The view from our bedroom was spectacular but, like most other reviews, that's where the good points end. The rooms were dirty, although the bed linen was clean, the bathroom was dirty and the decoration was awful. My... more

I have traveled through Kinlochleven twice now for Business. The first time I choose the Mamore Lodge. What disappointment! The rooms were dirty, food was tasteless, and the staff was very abrupt and quick to move me through my meal. I was eager to book somewhere else and will not be going back. I can’t believe I didn’t even get... more

It is hard to describe how indescribeably bad this accomodation is. We booked the room online and judging by the description it seemed a great deal eg: Stunning views ! 700 feet up in the Mamore mountains etc. This was all true but the hotel itself was a nightmare. The furniture looked like the remnants of a fire sale, our... more

As we walked up the private road, footsore and weary after tackling a section of the West Highland Way, we were delighted to have the offer of a lift from two of the Lodge staff making their way to work. As we entered the lobby the case of scary looking dolls simply looked quirky. Going up the bleak staircase with... more

As a resident of Kinlochleven, I know of the "Lodge". It is very reminiscent of the "Overlook" in "The Shining", in fact that is what some of us locals call it. It has stunning views and could be so very much more. Dont be put off. go along and don't expect too much because you wont get it, but have... more

Fantastic views- worth the drive/walk up for them but then turn around before you think of staying... This was the worst hotel we have ever stayed in in Europe. Inedible food (with the exception of breakfast), paper thin walls which made us feel that we were sharing a room with our fellow guests, the most uncomfortable bed you can imagine,... more

Unbelieveable in this day and age.Just happens to be open due to the Internet cut price Booking Facilities I would have thought. The room looked like someone had been to a house clearance that morning and put anything in it.Colourblind with a taste for tat and no standards of cleanliness. An insult to Scotland were the shabby prints / tacky... more

We were practically the *only* ones staying in the lodge that night. Apparently others had avoided it after reading the spot-on reviews on this website. Staying at the Mamore was a total nightmare. The owner and his wife were extremely unaccommodating, unwelcoming and totally rude for no apparent reason. Alcohol use there was rampant during our stay and it created... more
