We stayed for 2 nights in October and had a wonderful time. We were hugely impressed by the quality of the hotel and the service in particular. I had some trouble booking a room over the web(maybe the website could do with a little less going on as it can be slow to load) but when I called the woman... more

My partner and myself stayed at the hotel on 31st October for the Halloween Murder Mystery night and could not have asked for anything better. We arrived earlier than check in time but lucky for us our room (room 7) was vacant. Maggie the lovely receptionist showed us to our room and all the facilities in it. The room and... more

We stayed at The Lovat on a saturday night, in a Deluxe Double. I rang the hotel direct to book, and got a discounted "last minute" rate. The lady was very helpful and said she would give us a room with a view of the Loch, and a bath. - Room is nicely decorated, and 'cosy', with a bathroom the... more

I have passed your comments to all staff who are thrilled you enjoyed the majority of your stay, however I would like to come to your various points of concern. I am appalled at the length of time it took for your meal to arrive - it never should have taken 1hr for the starter - that is crazy. I...

My family and I spent 2 nights at The Lovat Arms Hotel while attending the renewal of my parents weedding vows. We had our 4 month old daughter with us and this was our first trip away from home since we had had the baby. The provisions in place to cater for a small baby were phenomenal from a travel... more

A very pleasant and grand looking hotel which awaits just to the side of the Caledonian canal and just before the entrance to Loch Ness. We had one of the side rooms in the annex just off from the main building, the room was lovely and the walk in wet room was definetly something else. Breakfast each morning was wonderful... more

Our room was beautiful, with an amazing view , massive bathroom and really nicely furnished room. It was spotless. The staff at the lovat are wonderful, friendly, attentive and warm. We sat by the roaring fire on... more

It's the little touches that make the Lovat lovely. From the fresh milk in the rooms to the little home made cookies when you book out, it stands this hotel out from the crowd. The dinner bed and breakfast deal is great value. The staff go out of their way to make you feel welcome. more

The Lovat feels like one of those grand period hotels that had lost its grandeur but fortunately now feels on its way back it is set in Fort Augustus, in lovely scenery at the southern edge of Loch Ness, where a series of locks take the Caledonian Canal up from the loch towards Fort William. we spent an afternoon watching... more

This is a nice hotel. The staff are very efficient - the hotel is very expensive for what it provides. The room was nice but nothing spectacular ( we booked a 'superior double' @ £290 for 2 nights b & b) - we stayed in an equally beautiful hotel in Ayr for 1/2 the price. I only booked here as... more

Many thanks for taking the time to write on TripAdvisor, it is greatly appreciated. Can I just ask which bedroom you stayed in as we do not have any 'superior' bedrooms? We have Studio, Deluxe or Master. Did you book through a travel agent? I have passed your comments to all staff who are pleased that you found us efficient....
