We only stayed one night here, but it was walkable to the lake and looked like it was convenient to public transport. We enjoyed walking down to the loch and to Balloch castle. The food in the restaurant was excellent.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Room was nice. Mattress on single bed was “dented” in centre and needed replacement. Light did not work in bathroom. Breakfast was not worth it, they were out of most of the items. No brown toast, no fruit and fibre or crunchy nut cornflakes, no yogurt. Was overpriced breakfast for very little available. Reception area in hotel building was VERY hot due to the vending machine venting too much heat. Was not hot weather. Needs attention.

Satisfactory stay
Nice stay, but the hotel needs designated staff. At bust times staff are obviously prioritising the restaurant and foot trade but at the detriment of overnight guests. Overall a good location and food was fine.

Hotel pratico e funzionale, camera pulita e spaziosa. Nel bagno non c'è lo scalda salviette. La colazione si fa in un altro edificio, abbiamo cenato e fatto colazione e i tavoli sono sporchi, personale a parte il responsabile sbrigativo
