Not worth $500 for the walled garden room. Totally seperate building and the rooms were not anything special. Breakfast was lovely and the staff was very nice!

Beautiful castle

Beautiful castle in stunning surroundings. We loved our room in the walled garden with the massive luxurious bathroom. Staff very friendly. Great Scottish breakfast.

Such a nice property with such attentive service. We should have sprung for the seasgair dinner but alas, we’ll just have to come back better prepared. I don’t think we were prepared for this specific kind of luxury treatment just yet.

Excellent.

Our stay was great. John and his team were superb. Service impeccable and the hotel stunning. Only quibble - it is advertised as dog friendly but dogs are only allowed in the bedroom. Obviously they should not be allowed in the restaurant etc. however We thought having a dog in the lounge would not have been a major issue.

Such an amazing trip

I cannot speak more highly about this hotel! The warm welcome from Kaitlyn, she makes you feel like you have come home and she is a constant presence making sure you have everything you need. Despite the cold outside the castle was lovely and warm, in both the rooms and the main lounge. The food is absolutely outstanding, we tried everything, we tried breakfast, afternoon tea, dinner in both the lounge and seagair restaurant, it is a foodies paradise and always served with smile. Everyone was so friendly which really makes you feel so relaxed. Can’t wait to go back.

The main castle and grounds are nice and definitely recommended. We wanted to stay an additional night, almost two month before our date of visit, they could only offered us a room in their so called garden rooms outside of the castle and promised to the room is as nice. For nearly the same price the garden room was very basic and half size as our room in the castle itself. Very disingenuous! We reserved dining at their Michelin star restaurant, the service was excellent, but the food was averaged. There are much better restaurants around Fort William.

Small touches make a difference

We stayed here one night as a part of a longer trip in Scotland. The hotel is beautiful and clean. The bed was super comfortable with high quality linens and the turn down service made it feel special. The real highlight was the incredible shower. I might be less excited about this if I hadn’t been traveling for 4 weeks and found the showers so be without pressure and often only hot for 5 minutes. But I’m pretty sure it was only partly that. The grounds are lovely and common rooms were comfortable. Staff members were helpful when they were around, sometimes you had to search them out.

Pros and cons. The hotel itself is outstanding, beatuful architecture, beautiful rooms and decor, beautiful setting. Breakfast was excellent and served in a lovely dining room On the flipside, some items failed to live up to expectations. First one was small and if not for the other, would probably not make a note. Two very expensive whiskey sours were very disappointing. I am a craft cocktail make and the whiskey sour is an easy one. Just balance the smokiness and richness of the whiskey with the bite of the lemon. Ours had no whiskey flavour. I wondered if they even added whiskey. One of the other guests noted the same thing and approached my table to ask how I liked it. The bigger disappointment was the formal restaurant. We are foodies and this was our fifth stop at a chosen dining spot on our three week tour of Scotland and the cost of dinner with the premium wine pairings were twice the other four, all og whom were better dining experiences. On the plus side the room and place settings were equisite, but they outshone the food by a wide margin. Most egregious was the cost of the premium wine pairings for nice, but not exceptional wines, and pourings which were on the light side. Given a typical pouring is a half a glass, these fell short if that. And at this price point, an apertif should have began and finished the dinner pre and post flight. I think we figured when added up, our one- third glasses of wine cane to something like 30 pounds each!

Nice place, stuffy and pretentious environment.

I was disappointed with the overall stay here. The atmosphere with stuffy and pretentious, and at times, we felt unwelcome and as though we didn't fit in. There was a particular staff member (I won't name him) that basically scolded me for a discrepancy on a taxi request. The facility itself was phenomenal. The food overpriced, and not worth it (45 pounds per person at Factors Inn for what was basically a few bits of salmon). The breakfast (included), great–no complaints there. The room we had, which was nearly $900 a night, had a fly problem that stemmed from within the room (not midges, which are well known there–these were house flies). We were dismissed when bringing this to their attention, and told that it was because the doors were left open (they weren't). The issue was never resolved. The towels seemed like they were not changed daily, though I won't get into detail on how we discovered this. We will not stay here again because of the pretentious and unwelcoming environment buy some (not all) staff members, but the facility itself was beautiful.

Great service just a touch too warm

Very nice rooms and service was phenominal. It was warm westher wise and the heat was in in the comnon rooms and hallways. So it was very warm inside the castle and in our rooms, that was really my biggest complaint.

Impeccable stay at a heritage hotel

This short visit to Inverlochy Castle was beyond our expectations. We enjoyed every detail of the place. The decor, staff and service, food-everything was reflective of a rich heritage of the place and impeccable. Our room overlooked the peaceful gardens, giving an unobstructed views of Ben Nevis, offering a rare stillness that allowed us to truly pause.

Spectacular stay. The castle is such a unique experience as a hotel and we loved every minute. The property is beautiful and the service was five star. The only negative was a giant beehive outside our room which prevented us from opening the window. A couple bees also made it inside our room but we were able to “guide” them back out with a small towel. Fortunately neither of us are allergic but my wife was not happy. However this didn’t ruin our stay and we would absolutely return and recommend to anyone. Definitely pricey but we found it worth it.

This was the best castle option we stayed in ! It was beautiful & quiet for nice walks around the property ;) we had to go to the inn fine the road to eat bc we didn’t want the fine dining option after a day of travel and wished they had a golf cart transport as it was a bit far when we walked for us older ladies :/ but the factor inn food was very good :) the staff at the castle were very helpful and delightful ; it was nice to have someone to carry our bags up the stairs !the breakfast was also exquisite!! Best if the trip !

While I can understand other comments about the state of the property, and it could use cleaning and updates in some areas, it really was a great place to stay. The staff were attentive, kind and went out of their way. We stayed in a walled garden room. It was beautiful and the bathroom was huge. All of the food we had was wonderful. Would love to stay again.
