The West Highland hotel could be so much better than it is.The rooms are basic but tired.Ours was dusty but the bathroom was clean. The shower was little more than a dribble.Why no satellite or freeview TV ?. Even the smallest B&B in the area can provide it! I might have been able put up with these shortcomings had I... more

Stayed here for a long weekend and left a day early. Hotel itself is clean and staff are pleasnat enough. Big problem is the food we did not eat for 2 days and found the food experience disgusting. It would appear the hotel has chosen cost over standard. They have bought the cheapest possible meats and produce which impact on... more

The hotel is on top of the hill above the railway station with views over the sea to Skye. The main building has a comfortable feel to it . My room was in an annex at the back - very functional but fine for a one night business stay. Another highland hotel popular with bus trips it provided me with... more

My friend & I decided to do a road trip to Scotland for 3 nights in July 2009. We started off at Edinburgh and stopped there for the first night, the second day we drove all the way up to Mallaig and stopped over at this hotel for the night. All I can say is that this is a great... more

We stayed at the West Highland in early July. Arrived on the ferry from Armadale, and found the hotel easily. Reception was very friendly, but the hike up to our rooms (top floor, all the way at the end) was a bit much, especially as we were recovering from an eight hour hike through the Cuillin the previous day. However,... more

Hotel location must be its best selling point. The views across to the islands were excellent from our room (we requested a sea view) and also from the restaurant and conservatory. Hotel is a bit tired in places, but the quality of staff help to make up for this. Close to the ferry terminal and the railway station. Acttually it... more

I had a very enjoyable holiday at this hotel (7 nights dinner, B&B special offer). I arrived by train and found that Mallaig is quite remote (5 hours from Glasgow) and built on a hill, but the scenery is really beautiful. It is much less commercialised than Oban, which for me was a very good thing -although it may not... more

No shower apart from a hand held rubber device to fit on the bath taps; bath plug not on chain; bath too steep to get into; but the bathroom though very cramped looked new. Had to ask for TV remote but need not have bothered; BBC 1 reception lousy, no Sky or Freeview - TV mounted on a shelf very... more

We visited this hotel earlier this week This hotel has magnificent views over to the Islands. It is a steep walk uphill to reach the hotel but the view is worth it. The entrance is through a heated conservatory where we sat in comfortable cane chairs after dinner. We checked in and climbed up to the second floor. The hotel... more
