We were headed north to Durness, but the snow, dark, and road conditions required us to stop last minute in Ullapool. I made our room reservation sitting at the gas station down the street. Despite us being late and very last minute, the staff welcomed us warmly (thank you, Linda!), in less than a minute we were set up in our room. The accommodations were excellent--clean and modern but set within an older authentic hotel. The breakfast was delicious, and we slept well. Although we only spent <18 hours in Ullapool, we're now eager to go back and learn more about the town. We'll definitely hope to stay at the Caledonian again.
Big car park and direct access to the back of the hotel especially convenient when traveling with a pet.

We worked in the hotel in 1977. The room we had was much smaller than previous rooms in the main building. The staff were very pleasant and helpful. Hotel is perfect setting for discovering Ullapool. Restaurant is spacious and breakfast was good.
Great stay at the Caledonia hotel.
It was a goid visit during our NC500 trip.
Staff were all polite and ao helpful.
Food for evening meal and breakfast was very good and thoroughly enjoyed.
Would defintmitwly recommend this as a palce to stay in Ullapool, very convenient.
The room was very clean. Tea, coffee and hot chocolate provided with milk, sugar and a kettle. Staff very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was delicious, sweet pastries, cereal, yogurt and full cooked scottish of your choice. Definately would recommend.
Though our stay was short due to other delays in our journey the staff were great and friendly. Check in was a breeze and by the sounds of it we missed a fantastic karaoke night. Wish we could have stayed longer.
