The hotel offers a cozy stay with rooms featuring twin beds and a balcony overlooking the Loch. The service was excellent, although room service could be more efficient. The stunning location by the Loch provides breathtaking views, but noise from the adjacent restaurant could be bothersome. The dining experience was enjoyable with special dishes offered, but the prices were slightly high. Overall, a comfortable stay with a few minor drawbacks.
