Find the Cheap Lochgoilhead Hotels

I would imagine that OAP coach parties love this hotel, but other guests may not have the same feelings. he hotel is in a superb location at the head of Loch Long, with rooms at the front having views of the ”Arrochar Alps”. It's also conveniently placed for Loch Lomond and the Trossachs. That's probably the best things about the hotel. The rest is mostly mundane or worse. The hotel is a bit of a 1980's time warp in places, our room was cramped with an oversized desk and chair taking up most of the available space. Dinner is a standard menu - 3 choices for each course, some good and some not so good. Lounge bar looks like it's had a recent facelift, but the bar manager did not seem at all concerned that the lager coming out of the pump warm. Breakfast was a distinctly average buffet. Staff attitude varied from very good to uninvolved. Overall i think it's trading on its location.

This hotel appears to promise many things that it really cannot deliver on. Firstly, the parking - the Car park is tiny and works on a first come first serve basis. Nearest place to park is down the road and costs £1.50 ph. Insane considering how much they charge for the rooms here. Secondly- the rooms are really small. Ours was a bit disappointing l, the key was unavailable when we got here (we suspect the room was still being turned over even though it was 8pm) the sheet wasn't on properly and the duvet cover was also not fitted properly. Not a huge issue. On the plus side- the bed was really comfy. The towels are small and few and far between, the pillows are not great. Otherwise not terrible. Again- comfy bed. Reasonably good night's sleep. Thirdly- we booked a dinner in the restaurant, staff were lovely. However, the service was not great. We ordered a starter each of black pudding croquettes and a main each of steak and veg pie with chips and veg. Initially, we were brought out 1 starter and 1 main. The server apologised, left the starter on the edge of the table and walked off with the main. The croquettes were lovely. Flavours were delicious, sadly, cold. But otherwise lovely. Later they brought out a 2nd starter. Hubby and I shared both starters so it wasn't all bad. Main was terrible. Steak pieces in my pie were mostly tubes, connective tissues and gristly bits. My veg was mouldy. Chips were nice though All in all, I really would not recommend this hotel to anyone. The views are pretty. The staff a friendly and there's a lovely chippy across the road. Otherwise, don't bother.

It is a medieval castle-style hotel with a sense of age. There is a kind white-haired British old man sitting in front of the service desk, working seriously. It feels like he has returned to decades ago, which is very artistic. In front of the hotel is Loch Lomond, with beautiful scenery.

The reception was very warm. We were driven through the house, had a beautiful room with view of the Shira hole. Robert & Jana (the hosts) gave us very valuable tips for excursions to the surroundings. The room was very tasteful and equipped with everything you need. The breakfast room also offered view of the sea. Breakfast was excellent with regional ingredients and was very lovely prepared for us. We are looking forward to spending more nights here in the future - 10Sterne of 5. Thanks to Rob and Jana. Peter and Ulli
