Stayed at this hotel for two nights due to its location for the Jacobite train. On arrival we were given a room on the ground floor. On entering the room there was an overwhelming smell of exhaust fumes from the cars parked outside the window. The room itself was also poorly maintained, flaking paint in the bathroom, bins that weren't emptied. We returned to reception to request a new room as we didn't want our 10 years old exposed to the fumes, commenting to the receptionist on the smell. Our second room was a slight improvement, but nowhere near what we expect from a premier Inn (we stayed in one less than 10 days previously, from which we can compare). The second room was hot due to no aircon, making sleeping difficult. Also the quality of the room was poor. Mould around the bath and toilet, poor repairs to the shower curtain rail and toilet flush, bathroom fan didn't work, table lamp didn't work, bedside light not secured to the wall, previous occupants toenails in the bathroom, main door strike plate missing from the door frame. Not what you expect when paying £125/night without breakfast.

Good afternoon Craig,
Thank you for taking the time to review your recent stay with us, I'm really sorry to hear that you were disappointed with your room on this occasion due to the smell from the car park and also the overall cleanliness in your room.
I am glad to hear that the team were able to move your room but it's disappointing that this room was also hot and below our usual standard for cleanliness along with the fixtures not working. This certainly isn't what we would expect for our guests and we can appreciate how frustrating this would be.
Please be assured we have logged your comments regarding this and this will be passed onto the Hotel Management Team to ensure this is picked up internally as we want all of our guests to enjoy their stay with us.
Apologies again for any poor stay this time around, however I do hope that we can welcome you back soon for a much more enjoyable stay.
Kind Regards, Laura

This hotel is perfectly situated near station (Jacobite train, 4 min. walk from the hotel, Mc Donalds, Lidl, Morrissons, gasstation next to the hotel) and centre. It is quiet, so you can have a good night sleep. The rooms are spacious enough for 4 people (familyroom). The nice restaurant is perfect for your breakfast or dinner or just for a drink. There is enough space to park your car.

Booked 2 nights here but wish we hadn’t. Overpriced for room only. Very poor shower with no pressure. Room was roasting hot but no air conditioning and window restricted to only open slightly. Paid extra for evening meal and breakfast at brewers fayre. Couldn’t eat the food as it had been cooked in stale fat and was cold. Breakfast no better. Luke warm food is not good. Will not be back.

location is a little hard to find. but once you find it, you realised it is actually quite a good place. it's near McDonalds and a big supermarket. useful for getting meals & grocery for the journey. beds are comfortable and showers are strong. love the Premier Inn concept. we know exactly what to expect and they always deliver. the restaurant beside Premier Inn serves good food and prices are reasonable too. do check out their daily special. i think i got my Fish & Chips for 5 pounds.
