Decided this year to support Uk economy by holidaying in UK rather than abroad. Stayed at Knockinaam Lodge earlier in year and The Albannach was mentioned as one of the Best Boutique Hotels in Scotland. Drive to get there is through awesome and forbidding landscape - take it easy on the roads. The Albannach now has a Michelin star and... more

Stayed at the Albannach two nights and enjoyed it very much. We had the Penthouse on the top floor which was extremely comfortable and of course the views were stunning although the somewhat narrow staircase leading up to the room would not suit the elderly or infirm. We found dinner a somewhat haphazard affair and the dining room a little... more

We spent one night in the Albannach in April for the first night of a 5 night trip round the Highlands. We had a lovely stay. Our room look out over the harbour and in to the mountains. The tea and cake on arrival was a great bonus. The 5 course dinner was delicious with one of the best oysters... more

The room was lovely, the food very good and the reception/conservatory area relaxing. However, we thought the service didn't quite come up to the standard of say Airds, Cromlix or the Summer Isles. It's not... more

Very brief review. I am just back from a weekend in the Albannach. The hotel is small, friendly and extremely comfortable. I would recommend it to anyone. The attention to detail rates it as one of the best hotels I have ever stayed in. The evening meal was a "fixed choice" . This might worry some people, but do not... more

While we were planning a trip to Scotland, Bon Appetite came out with a Scottish Issue. What a lot of wonderful choices for us to make. At the same time Scottish Life and Scotland magazines had articles on the outstanding scenery in the northwestern part of Scotland. After reading the magazine we decided on the Albannach located in Lochinver, Scotland.... more

Stayed here with my wife on 14th August 2005 (a last minute booking so we were lucky to get in) and was delighted that we made this choice. The Albanach is an lovely privately run small hotel where the rooms, decor and ambience of the place are second only to the fantastic food on offer. One of the best hotels... more
