This hotel is just great. From the moment we arrived we felt at home. Our room was on the second floor and had breathtaking views over the Kyles of Bute. It was spacious and airy with a large well appointed bathroom. The staff were pleasant and chatty and I must thank Andrea who served us dinner on the first night.... More

Just called to book a 2 night stay with our 6 year old which was fine until we mentioned we had a 5pm voucher. Then we were told no children were allowed even if we paid extra, or do you just not want us to use our voucher. This is a total rip off, your could accomodate until we said... More

We booked a two night deal on 5pm website to celebrate my 70th birthday. One can never be sure what to expect on these 'specials' but we could not have hoped for better. The room was spacious and the view to die for. The service from the staff was excellent and the food top class. Congratulations Christine and Keith. A... More

Thank you for such a wonderful review. Our food is most definitely the area that gets the most comments and to have it compared to a Michelin star restaurant is fabulous, thank you.

Sorry for the delay in posting. My wife and I stayed at this hotel to celebrate her 50th birthday on 20 April. We loved everything about the hotel.

When Keith & I fell in love with our hotel, we fell hook line and sinker for the building and took the location for granted, but within weeks of being here and working in the restaurant we realised what a stunning outlook we had. As you will probably have noticed you can watch the weather changing from the south end... More

We've just returned from a perfect weekend at The Royal. I was told beforehand by Christine that we could not be given a sea view - they were almost full when I phoned - and I didn't mind this in the least. We had a most spacious, warm and comfortable room with a huge bathroom. We're short of space at... More

It is so nice to get 3 reviews on the trot with 5/5 ratings. Thank you so much for being the third and for spending the time to share your experience with us. As you were able to find out, our rear/garden rooms are just as nice and spacious as our front, sea view rooms, they just lack that spectacular... More
