The Glen Mhor Hotel and Uile-bheist Brewery & Distillery

10/10 Excellent

"Loved this place. We got upgraded upon arrival and the room was gorgeous overlooking the river. Big large room and huge bathroom. Hotel was beautiful and loved being attached to the brewery to have cocktails and whiskey at night. Great location close to the city centre. Highly recommend!!!"

10/10 Excellent

"This lodge is an absolute perfect getaway in the highlands. The staff is incredibly wonderful and go above and beyond to make sure your stay is pleasant. They helped us arrange transportation and always made sure we had a meal. If I have one complaint, it is only that they don’t have AC which can make for some warm rooms even with the windows open. I would recommend this lodge over and over!"
