Food: Not good, Large portions but of things you could easily cook at home. My thai curry was just a bog standard chicken curry. Soup far too salty. Breakfast was ok but lacked something. Restaurant freezing with no atmosphere. Room: Absolutely freezing when we arrived. Not enough towels. No soap in the bathroom! Single beds tiny. Could not get an... more

We were not staying at the hotel but went there for a meal. It was a gloomy restaurant with little atmosphere. The waitress had no idea what beers were on offer or whether they had still orange and had to go and ask the barman. When the soup was served we had to ask whether there was any bread, which,... more

Though we often use review websites we do not often write a review. However after reading a rather strange pair of reviews fromsome folk from Frankfurt about this small hotel we felt it deserved a more useful and realistic report from us after our lovely stay. We found the owners friendly and really welcoming. The rooms were clean well presented... more

Are you a masochist?... then go to this odd place and you will enjoy being demeaned by its strange proprietors. When you finally realise that the hotel building looks only appealing from distance but is in fact rather run-down, you will already have handed-over your credit card to the greedy mistrustful boss. This is the most important procedure of your... more

Management response from
RichmondStrathpeffer, Owner

This is the same revewier as Grecs04 to which a management response has been written. It is hotel policy to take credit/debit card details when booking in advance. If guests arrive on spec then we require for them to give us card details or pay in advance, this is in accordance with the majority of hotels.

We stayed at this place in July 2009. Instead of being given a "warm welcome" we were greeted by a gloomy man who made us hesitate whether to stay or not. However, as it was late we decided to stay. Apparantly, we were the only guests this night, which added to the overall bleak atmosphere in this hotel. The room... more

Management response from
RichmondStrathpeffer, Owner

I am sorry that Grecs04 did not enjoy their stay with us. They were advised on day of arrival that breakfast was served between 7.30 - 9.00 am and booked breakfast for 8.45am. They did not appear until nearly 9.15 and although we advised that breakfast was served till 9am we were still willing to supply a cooked breakfast for...

We decided to have a break in Scotland and decided to go up north and see Loch Ness. We aren't familiar with this area but when we booked the Richmond House hotel the owners gave us directions to get there so already we had a good impression we were going somewhere we would be looked after. When we got there... more

My husband and I stayed at this hotel for one night and I wish we hadn't. The building is exceptional but the rooms were barely acceptable and we were disgusted with the attitude of the owners who appeared to be in a temper most of the time or under the influence of alchohol. They were abrupt and unprofessional to us... more
