About

Located in the small fishing village of Ullapool, the independent Argyll Hotel features free Wi-Fi and free parking. This traditional music venue features a seafood and steak restaurant, and a popular bar. The rooms feature a flat-screen Freeview TV and Fairtrade tea and coffee making facilities with complimentary shortbread biscuits and bottled water.

The Restaurant offers an extensive menu, with vegetarian and gluten free choices. Dishes are freshly prepared using locally sourced produce where possible. The Argyll Hotel’s well-stocked bar serves real ales and cocktails. The Argyll Hotel is host to a full schedule of traditional live music and weekly entertainment. Located on the scenic west coast of the Scottish Highlands, the pet friendly hotel is just 5 minutes’ walk from Ullapool Harbor and the popular Ullapool Museum and Visitor Center.

    Pros +

    • The accommodations were exactly what we needed, comfortable. The host and hostess were helpful and friendly. The food was fantastic.
    • When the ferry couldn't sail, the hotel staff found acommodation very quickly.
    • The room was very cozy and the view was beautiful. Everything was impeccably clean. Loved the tea in the room. The staff was also very accommodating.

    Cons -

    • The shower was either malfunctioning or I found it too confusing to figure out. It was confusing to get it turned on, first of all, so maybe this was user error. But once I got it running, I couldn't get the water to be a nice, human temperature. It was either scalding hot or bone-chillingly cold. There were a few seconds of transition from scalding to freezing, and I was able to get my hair washed a few seconds at a time. It worked out. But it was a very uncomfortable shower.
    • Light bulbs were out. Bathroom sink lacked hot water. Check in was a bit cumbersome.
    • No chef on a Saturday night.Shower broken - no staff around at check out to pass feedback on.Hot breakfast in sister hotel not worth price and swimming in grease.

    The location along Ullapool's waterfront was great and the room was adequate and remarkably quiet given that live music plays at the ground floor pub nearly every night. Staff was pleasant and quick to respond. We would stay here again. The continental breakfast was more than adequate and the pub food at the hotel and seafood at the sister hotel across the street and down a set of stairs was great. Be sure to visit the Ullapool Museum to fully appreciate the area's history and culture.

    Light bulbs were out. Bathroom sink lacked hot water. Check in was a bit cumbersome.

    The view from the third floor rooms were amazing!!! Gorgeous big window straight out to the bay. Lovely.

    The stairs are a bit steep and narrow for the third floor so if you have mobility problems, it might be difficult for you to get there.

    Hot water took a good 10 minutes to run through. Coffee cups stained. Tired..needed some tlc.

    Location

    Advertised a bath and after days of living in a campervan, this is one thing we were looking forward to. Entered the room to no big light working, and the smallest shower I’ve ever seen. No bath. When getting in the shower you couldn’t even move it up as it was broke, not good for my 6ft partner. Woke up at 1am to all the customers from the pub below being kicked out. Told the hotel within minutes of entering the room, yet still had no reply. Then no one around in the morning to inform. The price was ridiculous for what it was. I’d expect to pay £50 max for this room.

    7ChristinePosted on: 4-28-2025

    Very friendly and helpful people.

    I paid extra for a sea view but there was an electric high line wire right across the window. Hard to take scenic pictures with a line across the window.There was no soap in the bathroom. The lightbulb for the bedroom light was out and that was the only light except a small lamp on a side table.Front Door locked behind me when I left to go to breakfast (8:30am). No one was there to open it upon my return.

    Easy to find. Very good value for money. Great breakfast. Staff very pleasant. Great view over the loch.

    The pillows were far too hard.

    6HarrietPosted on: 4-21-2025

    Clean, tea, coffee, biscuits, beef pie, friendly barman who was also waiter and reception, and generally run off his feet!

    Bed cold, no extra blankets, no food served Wednesday evening in spite of sign saying food served until Thursday, breakfast served in a different hotel down many stairs, no sign of cooked menu though uneaten food congealing on plates uncleared, no access to the car park when it was time to leave - had to walk around the streets to it.

    Private car park at back of hotel. Lovely view of the harbour and scenic views over mountains. A few minutes walk to local shops and cafes

    We were put on the second floor which was slight issue with having the dog. On arrival, we discovered that the restaurant wasn't open so had to go looking for somewhere to eat. Due to being early in the season, most of the cafes were shut or not dog friendly. Luckily there was a chippy.

    The television media not working.

    Very clean staff very polite a good pint of Guinness

    The out side could do with some TLC the bed was very squeaky

    2MckinlayPosted on: 3-26-2025

    Would advise anyone not to stay there

    Mouldy bathroom. Lumpy mattress. Scuff marks on paintwork. Continental breakfast poor. Rubbish shower. Bathroom mirror light didn’t work. Only one pillow. Grubby carpet but towels were ok

    8MaryPosted on: 3-24-2025

    Staff, Coleen especially, were brilliant. Views from the room were stunning. Would certainly recommend, great value for the money.Coleen is a great asset, lovely lady.

    Room was slightly dusty, especially round the heating controls.Duvets were not of the best quality, we were quite cold in bed. Had the heating controls been easier to use it might have made a difference, as it was we both ended up sleeping in our dressing gowns !

    5TracyPosted on: 3-24-2025

    location is excellent right on the front looking over the water. staff were very friendly and helpful.Room was a good size it could do with some attention.

    The curtains were hanging off the rail , the hose on shower was frayed and ready to break. Breakfast was continental which consisted of bread for toast , small cheese blocks ,cereal , jam, ready wrapped small croissant. coffee was filtered, the pillows were very firm.

    2AlistairPosted on: 3-21-2025

    Location, nothing else to like

    Cleanliness of room, TV in room didn't work, wifi in room didn't work. Centre light didn't work even after fitting new bulb. Obviously problem with connection. No bottled water, choice of tea, cheap biscuits and toiletries. Website promised better quality

    5AndrewPosted on: 3-20-2025

    Good location

    Dated and lack of facilities, poor attention to detail on cleaning (thick layer of dust on head board, floor not hovered)
