great hotel in.lovely location

loved my stay. Large room overlooking the square. clean and comfortable. kind of old fashioned as is fitting for the. building. I expected a small room with single bed but was delighted to have a large double bed. ensuit was rather small but that didnt bother me. Loads of hot water and big fluffy soft towels. Tea, coffee and shortbread replenished daily.

I had a big group coming to Scotland so I decided to book the Grant arms for ease. Price was fair and pictures looked great. The property is dated, but the staff makes up for it. There is few plugs in rooms and some guests found their room noisy and struggled to sleep through the night. I was pleasantly surprised by the good night sleep I had but unfortunately the breakfast was a huge disappointment. The scrambled eggs were soggy and tasted of butter solely. Also, they take payment a day in advance so if you’re planning to split payment for the rooms don’t trust the “pay at property” feature.

We picked our location first and narrowed the choice of hotel to the Grant Arms and one other. We chose the GAH because it was an old, established hotel with a great reputation and ticked all our boxes. The staff were brilliant, great views & food and a well stocked bar.
