My partner and I stayed here in the october of 2010. We found this hotel to be warm (thankfully) clean and friendly. We stayed here for 3 nights and found it ideally situated, we chose to eat at the local pub simply due to budget constraints although the food at the hotel did look and smell very good. We also...

2nd time we have stayed at the Lovat, would recommend it to any one travelling in that area. The Staff are friendly and the service is excellent. The rooms are comfortable and well presented. We will certainlybe returning in the Summer months More

Last minute night away found us in the small Highland town of Fort Augustus and in the "lovin' arms" of the Lovat Hotel. We stayed in one of the adjacent misnamed Chalets (which immediatley gets you thinking of Butlins in the 70's) which are the last word in luxury especially the wet room - which is the best I have...

We have family in the village and often come up to Fort Augustus usually staying with them but this time that wasn`t possible and so we decided to stay at the Lovat. Our accomodation was outwith the main building and looked to be a recent addition, it consisted of a double bedroom with large ensuite wet room, a parking space... More

Many thanks for your comments, which are appreciated. As always we are keen to learn of any experience to give us the chance to improve where required. Bedroom heating – in 2007 the hotel underwent extensive refurbishment and we installed a woodchip boiler to provide central heating and hot water for the whole hotel. At that time, the hotel controlled... More

Another comfortable, relaxing stay at The Lovat, Loch Ness. Excellent facilities, high class food (dinner and breakfast) and great service. The attention to detail makes all the difference. Thank you. I'm sure we'll be back again More

Have had the pleasure of staying here twice on business recently (and once late last year). The first time we arrived quite late, and despite the bar being closed, the lovely girl on reception (who I'm sure wanted to do nothing more than get to her bed) cheerfully got us some drinks and snacks. One of the evening meals I... More

Having been recommended The Lovat by a friend, my wife and I found this delightful hotel exceeded all our expectations, the friendly staff, the good sized bedroom with dual aspect views (one of Loch Ness) all helped to make us feel welcome during our two night stay. The hotel prides itself on sourcing local produce for its Restaurant and Brasserie,... More

Your comments have pride of place on our staff noticeboard so thank you! Grass cutting - as mentioned on your departure, this job is contracted out so I was pretty distressed to hear of your findings. The company was contacted immediately to inform them of your dis-satisfaction. It was a shame that you were not able to take us up... More

When I phoned to enquire about rooms both members of staff I spoke to were very helpful and discussed the different room options with us. When we arrived, the... More

Thanks for your comments and how embarrassing to read your email because we didn’t seem to get anything right as your experience hit one mistake after another. Whilst some feedback can be disappointing we are also always grateful as it allows us to improve so thank you for your honesty. Bedroom - I accept full responsibility for the error with... More
