After reading reviews on Trip Advisor, I went on holiday last week with some trepidation. I booked in and found my single room basic but clean and quite adequate. The bed and pillows were very comfortable and the bed linen was changed every day, as was the towels. There was an electic heater and heated towel rail in the room,... More

...and at £60 for B&B for two for one night we did not expect luxury. The Caledonian fulfilled our expectations. The room was basic, and the bathroom looked grubby, particularly with the silverfish crawling around. We had a view over the shops and quayside to the loch beyond. Breakfast was very impersonal with large numbers from a coach party -... More

Somewhat dated hotel catering largely for coach parties of seniors. Our room was adequate with a good view of the loch and hills behind. The bed however left much to be desired, as it was broken down on the TV side, and as a consequence the springs twanged whenever you moved. Consequently we had a restless and noisy nights sleep-...

Thank you for taking the time to write your comments – we are in the middle of replacing the beds, televisions and due to the amount required, with this in mind I hope you can appreciate this can not be done over night. The employees here at the Caledonian hotel do take your comments very seriously and have reacted with... More

This is a truly grim hotel. Popular with coach loads (goodness knows why) but for us, a middle-aged couple with dog, it was awful. Dirty entrance porch populated by smokers sheltering from the rain. Grubby halls, tiny bedroom, taped up electrics, taped up bath filler. Our ground floor room smelt of mould and there was black mould on windows and... More

Spent one night here en route to the islands. Our room was a reasonable size which was clean and tidy. Good sized bathroom. Checking-in was good, the receptionist was helpful. Reception area and dining room were nice and the hotel is in a central location for everything. There was a party of seniors in the hotel but there was no... More

We kept an open mind as reviews ranged from terrible to excellent. Twin room was small but warm and cozy, bathroom quite large with a good shower, walls quite thin and floorboards a little creaky but this didn't stop us having a good sleep on both nights. Breakfast consisted of juices, cereals, porridge and a cooked Scottish breakfast from the... More

Huge bus crowd of seniors overwhelmed this nice older property. I was disappointed by the promised entertainment that started 45 min late. My room was adequate. I would come again only if I could get a view room. More
