Top Ballachulish Hotel Reviews

The Royal Hotel

8/10 Good

"It is needing upgraded as creaky floors n some of the carpets need replacing also found the double bed a bit small"

Alexandra Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We loved this place. Ideal location close to train and bus station. In view of park, and right at the top of the High Street. Good sized room and bathroom. Definitely recommend"

Ben Nevis Hotel & Leisure Club

8/10 Good

"The single bedroom was perfect - nice shower room and comfy bed, good tea/coffee selection. The outside of the hotel looks really shabby, it desperately needs a coat of paint. Inside however the bar are was nice and the buffet breakfast very good. I’d stay again due to its reasonable rates"

"good"
