“Lovely Hotel”

Glenmoriston Town House

28 Mar 2008

We visited this hotel for a 2 night stay which included a Valentine's Day treat, the hotel has 2 separate buildings, we were located in the building which hosts Contrast Restaurant. The location of this hotel is ideal being situated on the banks of the River Ness and only a 5 minute walk to the town centre. The decor in the room was very modern and well presented. The room was very clean, comfortable bed and well equipped with 2 chairs, table, tv, dvd, etc but this made the room feel very cramped. Our room was situated at the back of the hotel directly above the kitchen for Contrast Restaurant, there was an outside freezer which meant the kitchen staff were constantly in and out all night which led to constant banging of doors up until about 10/10.30 pm. The piano bar was very relaxing. All of this aside we had a very enjoyable stay and would most definitely return to this hotel but to another room this time !!!

“Check your room first”

We stayed at the Glenmoriston for four nights in September on a golf holiday to the highlands. There were four couples in our group and we had varied rooms. Two couples upgraded to riverviews, for extra charge, and were given two very nice appointed updated rooms but they were very very small(under the eaves with one queen size bed). The other two couples were given two first floor rooms without a view which were larger with king size beds, no extra charge. Go figure. We were told that the rooms in the main part of the hotel were larger but not updated. When this hotel gets all rooms updated, it might be worth the price paid. But I have to say that the bed was the best in Scotland.
The restaurant in the annex was delightful for both breakfast and dinner. The staff was great except for the head waiter who definitely had a problem. In fact the rest of the staff was so good that we tipped several of them extra.
The location was within walking distance of the town with shopping, restaurants, and night spots.

“Overpriced with terrible service, though Abstract Restaurant is good”

2/2 found this review helpful

This hotel is trying to be a small luxury hotel, though rooms are too cramped overpriced and missing vital items to be considered luxury. The hotel is also very noisy with too many rooms in an old house.

Staff are comically rude at times and the smallest request takes ages to be dealt with.

Food in Abstract restaurant is excellent but again marred by dreadful staff and it's London prices.

“Very disappointing”

Have stayed in many hotels in Scotland but felt this one tried too hard but failed in the basics such as

no space to set toiletries down in the bathroom so we had to use the floor
very little storage space in the bedroom so we didn't even bother to unpack for the 3 nights that we were there
dvd player supplied in room, which was great, but when I went out of the room to check the volume, it could be heard clearly even when turned down low, so we were afraid of disturbing the neighbours!

Breakfast was a shambles every morning, seemed to be because of the computer.

On the plus side the staff were very friendly and courteous and the bed was very comfortable.

“A pleasant surprise”

Glenmoriston Town House

18 Jul 2007
2/3 found this review helpful

Well.
Where to start.
I guess we went there quite simply because we had seen the Gordon Ramsay programme about the food, and wanted to see for ourselves just how it had all turned out.
Essentially, the food was excellent, the service superb, the wine list good but marked up too much, the accomodation above average but uninspired, the location................. fine.

Biggest problem is the space they have in and around the buidings available to them......you are always pretty close to the car park, and although next to the river there are no views to speak of and the whole feel of the builidings/rooms/locale is rather cramped . Everything feels a bit crammed in. Culloden House it isn't and never will be. But Culloden House food is nowhere near as adventurous, interesting, well prepared or well served.

The staff were an intriguing euromix...a cheerful and massively competent bar man ; a knowldgeable sommelier; a courteous waitress.

The chap from London in a previous post suggests there are plenty of other good eating options nearby. Tell me where???!!!!

We only stayed overnight en route from Edinburgh to the far north to fish....and aside from dinner the early morning breakfast was superb......quite simply the most beautiful fried egg in my full Highland I have ever seen. Also a perfect martini prepared by someone who actually knew how to make them ( the night before!!).

Anyway.
Would we stay there again?
Well we would definitely eat there again.
Staying was fine, but I wished I could have woken to a view of something other than my own car in the Julyraindrizzled car park.
