A very comfortable hotel in a beautiful place. Our room was spacious and clean. The staff were friendly and efficient, food was good. It was an ideal base for a group of windsurfers and a few spectators.
Another very happy guest! Thank you for taking the time to post such a positive review of your recent stay. We look forward to having you back with us soon again.
Kindest regards

It was with a tear in the eye that I returned to the Loch Altan in September. I've stayed in the hotel every year for the past 20, until Covid came along and we had to cancel the 2020 trip.
We all feared for the hospitality industry during Covid - it was devastating - but I'm happy ro say that the Loch Altan has survived! As soon as I walked through the doors, I got the same warm feeling - it was like coming home.
The entrance lobby has been given a lick of paint - not that it needed it - bit it feels very fresh.
The evening restaurant has just re-opened the day we arrived - we expected a few hiccups early on, but they weren't any. As usual they were so accommodating to our big and sometimes random group.
The bar menu is new. Over 3 weeks I worked my way through everything and can recommend it all - but especially the seafood chowder, the haddock and the steak.
This September was beautifully warm so I can't comment on things like central heating - but as usual there was plenty of hot water - an essential for watersports folk.
As usual I can't fault the place and will back next year

I stayed at Loch Altan for 2 weeks as part of a windsurfing course. I thought it was great. The room was clean and well-kept. The staff were very friendly and went the extra mile to help, (sorting out a room to help dry wetsuits). The food was excellent with a great atmosphere in the bar. Loch Altan is in a great location - really scenic. I'm looking forward to returning.
I am delighted that you enjoyed your stay with us and I am very grateful to you for posting such a positive review of visit during the windsurfing course with Peter Hart. We were very pleased to offer you a warm area where you could dry your wet suits during the night so that they were nice and dry for the following days surfing.
We look forward to your return visit.
Kindest regards
