Highlander Hotel, Newtonmore

Stayed 6th December 2019

Have stayed at this hotel many times and it never disappoints. Service is second to none from friendly, well trained staff. This visit was also memorable because of the fabulous Christmas decorations.

The hotel staff were amazing and it's great that the hotel is dog friendly. Our four legged friend had a ball and the staff were great with her. The one thing that was not good was the food unfortunately. On both nights we left nearly full plates. The salmon was brick hard and the steak pie appeared to have been either left sitting or reheated, chewy and pastry hard. We were never asked why the food was left. This wouldn't put me off staying again as the staff and service was very good, but if we were to return it's likely we wouldn't eat in the bar or restaurant.

Had a lovely 2 night stay in the Highlander Hotel in Newtonmore. Great value for money deal. Meals were great and huge portions in bar meals would even satisfy Desperate Dan. Room was large and clean with lovely shower room. Only fault is no card machine in bar as no-one really carries a lot of cash these days. Would recommend and will return. Staff were terrific as was breakfast.

A functional hotel that satisfied the needs of a group of golfers for an overnight stay. The rooms were clean and tidy with a, shall we say, rather compact shower. The food was plain and wholesome with a selection that would satisfy everyone but the most fussy of eaters....however the hotel's greatest asset was their staff who were polite, professional and friendly. We stayed on a DB&B basis and it was excellent value for money!

Hotel is ‘ of its era’ Our room was clean & comfortable : but the hotel itself is very dated . The bulk of visitors to it seemed to be bus tour clientele . The food was warm and satisfying , but again : its bulk catering geared towards the bus tours . The staff were extremely welcoming & friendly & all very hardworking . An asset to this business . Unlikely we will return .

Stayed 16th November 2018

Hotel rooms good size, very modern bathrooms. Staff very helpful. Breakfast and dinner excellent. Only downside was that we had a disabled room, which had everything we needed, but as the rooms were outside of the hotel they could do with letting disabled people use the side entrance as the front entrance had steps. However everything else was very good so we will be returning.

Had a nice stay staff were good at reception. I reckon some of the staff in the restaurant could have been better with the service.

Stayed 26th June 2018

Excellent attentive staff. Enjoyable stay

Stayed 27th February 2018

Very friendly and helpful staff in reception and dining room. Room was clean , warm (-5C outside) and bathroom looked as though it had been recently refurbished. Breakfasts were good and evening meals were substantial if not very imaginative. The hotel was quiet and sometimes there were more staff than diners in the evening so the service was almost too speedy! An enjoyable winter break when other parts of the UK were paralysed by heavy snow and would use this hotel again.

Stayed 9th February 2018

Room looked like it had been recently refurbished, very fresh, clean and comfortable. Excellent food. Well staffed. Friendly and helpful staff. Free Wifi. Congested car parking (Funeral, Celidh ?). Would happily stay again.

Stayed 1st October 2015

hotel was clean food good staff polite

Stayed 7th May 2017

Hotel was fine, but mealtimes were too restricted. 0730-0900 is fine for business but too early for tourist. Also 1930- 2100 is a bit late should be 1800-2100 for evening meals. Everyone was queing to get in at 1930.,whereas a more fluent time would avoid such a rush.

Stayed 5th May 2017

Been before as its dog friendly. Food excellent. Staff very pleasant. I would anticipate another visit.

The hotel although dated had a large room and my wife thought the shower was the best she has experienced away from home. The food was excellent and the staff very friendly and efficient. We will be more than happy to return.

Lovely hotel as was dog friendly but unfortunately the rooms have no sound proofing what so ever. The dogs found it very hard to settle the first night as there was a lot of doors banging and the creaking of the floor above. Food and service was fantastic on the first day but not so great the second day,not sure what was going on.
