- Sold this hotel to my wife claiming the food is ok but plenty and breakfast is really good but this time the evening meal was rubbish and was hungry after I finished and breakfast was rubbish sorry .

Room curtain rail fell off wall then I remembered it fell off on my last visit a year before . Shower over bath was ok but water did not drain even overnight the bath was half full

The hotel is very close to town and is a lovely setting. Excellent bicycle storage. Hotel itself is very Scottish inside . Has a nice bar with pool table. Room was fab. Young lad serving us at breakfast was very efficient. The full Scottish break was very good. We obviously cycled there and the scenery from Lochailort Railway Station was beautiful. The owner warned us that the Kilchoan to Tobermory CalMac Ferry was cancelled due to high wind. We discovered when we got there the ferry was running normally. The cycle route to the ferry was marvellous.
Everything was very nice and no complaints.
Miles from anywhere. Staff are great. Inviting and welcoming. One of my favourite hotels. Motorcycle is safe outside
On the positive - the personnel were good.
It is a 2 star hotel charging 4 star prices. We would not recommend it I am sorry to say. The previous reviews on booking.com are not comparable to our experience.
The staff were very friendly and welcoming. They were also very accommodating.The food was superb and all cooked to order. It was busy which is always a good sign as locals were enjoying night out.
It was a bit out of the way and we thought we'd booked at Shiel Bridge which was 2 hours away! Next time I will check map!
Room was large and staff were accommodating.
Steep steps. Bathroom was cramped and shower barely functioned. Food was just adequate. Location was remote.
Nice staff, calm and peaceful, tasty breakfast
The room and the bathroom need some refreshment
Great location. Nice food. Very friendly and helpful staff.
Bed not the most comfortable !
Able to accomodate me last minute due to ferry cancellations. Everyone was so helpful and accommodating, especially as i had my little dog with me.
view from room and comfortable bed and cosy room.
Bathroom was a bit dirty and food low quality.
If you like peace and quiet this is the place for you. Set in a small village in the countryside close to the ferry to Isle of Mull, we enjoyed hospitable staff, good coffee och excellent smoked salmon. The pub and restaurant filled up in the evening. The beer was good and the company excellent. We can highly recommend Loch Shiel hotel.
Lovely breakfast and welcoming staff. Lovely to chat to and friendly locals
The location was good - although a distance from the Loch. Staff were helpful and welcoming
The hotel was dated and dusty in places. It was ideal for an overnight stay but not for any length of time.
Cracking location. Clean and comfy. Slept like a top. Not a lot of distance between the bar and our room. Which was nice.
No complaints from me. I would've liked a Gatling gun mounted on the bedroom window, but apparently, they don't go in for that sort of thing.
Dinner was really good, and the bar had very good atmosphere. Very pleasant staff.
The floor of the room was so inclined that the bathroom door could not be closed.
The location and the breakfast
Cleanliness could be improved a bit
Great location, budget hotel, very friendly and accommodating staff.
Loch Shiel provided a good midway point for our travels. Staff were very friendly and made every effort to be accommodating. There was a great selection for breakfast and it was well-presented.
The room was somewhat tired and quirky with a need for updating. Compared to our experience at other B & B's, the price was as high but provided fewer amenities.
