This is a very welcoming hotel in a stunning location. Although it was a little more pricy than other places we stayed, it was a great treat for a couple of nights. The food was excellent and the choice of wines and whiskies was also very good. I would happily have stayed longer but unfortunately they were booked up.

We stayed at the hotel last week (13-15 September) and I'd booked room number 1, which has stunning views and a four poster bed. The room was enormous with a great old wardrobe in it. Room was clean and very nicely decorated.

When we arrived the coal fire was on and it was really welcoming. We had dinner in the bar the first night which was really busy with people eating (from previous posters - no noise or boistrous locals, but it was midweek). Some locals were in having a post work beer and some dinner, I'd say a 50 50 split between residents and locals. Food was great, one of the best steaks I've had.

They made us up a packed lunch with was great (my other halfs salmon sandwhich must have had the whole fish in it :-)) and we had dinner the next day in the restaurant. Gorgeous room, and the food was again brilliant. I had the venison and my other half had steak, after mine had been so good the night before.

The location is just stunning, out overlooking the loch and you can see across to ben nevis on a clear day. The staff were attentive and friendly, Duncan was great at helping us make our dinner decisions. You can walk to the Jacobite statue (5 minutes) and from there see the viaduct that is used in the Harry Potter films - the steam train goes over at about 11 (not all year - stops in October I think).

All in all, we had a brilliant time. But then as I proposed to my other half further up the coast while we were there (this had been planned) the place will always be special to us.

I'm not sure what more one could ask for in a Highlands B&B.

As others have written, the Glenfinnan House Hotel is in an almost unbelievably storybook setting, right on the loch overlooking the Prince Charles Edward monument. It is surrounded by woodlands and a beautiful little church sits on a hill just above the B&B.

On top of that, the food at the restaurant was excellent and served in a lovely, elegant room. At dinner, my wife an I were given a table right at the front window overlooking the loch, where we could watch the sun set.

The interior has the paneled, homey feel of an old stately home, and the common rooms are warm and have a faded charm to them.

Our room was a bit on the small size, but outfitted with antique furniture and a big-enough bathroom that appeared to have recently been given new fittings.

In our 10 day trip in the Highlands, this was our favorite hotel.

Stayed last week. Great welcome. Rooms very clean and family suite good value and very spacious. Great location and views, lots of room for kids to run around and loch cruise is a must. Very relaxing. Duncan and Manja and their team really friendly and welcoming. Ideal base for exploring Fort William, Mallaig,etc.
