巴拉維爾飯店(Balavil Hotel)

inconcepibile non trovare il miscelatore nel lavandino del bagno; le luci del bagno si accendono con un laccetto niente interruttori e le prese non tutte funzionanti ... il progresso deve ancora arrivare. Mi aspettavo di meglio in un hotel 3 stelle!

We had a family celebration in the Balavil hotel at the weekend. There was 14 of us and all had different meals from the menus. The food was fantastic a varied menu and my elderly mother was able to have a small plate as she is unable to eat a normal size meal. Nothing was too much trouble. The staff were very attentive, very friendly and helpful. My elderly parents stayed in the hotel and said their room and facilities were excellent. Would highly recommend the hotel.

This was a stop gap as I traveled from Lewis to the Scottish Borders. As a solo female traveler it can be tricky to navigate but the staff bent over backwards to make me feel welcome & comfortable even seating me in a quieter area rather than the noisy, busy bar. All staff were amazing- reception, dinner, bar & breakfast. The food was great too. I will definitely be back.

Excellent hotel ideally located. The most friendliest of staff who did everything even before you asked. Stayed in room 31 which has a huge bathroom. Had dinner and breakfast and both were lovely. The breakfast was the best on our road trip around Scotland. Being southern softies, have not had much haggis but are now converts after eating the haggis starter at dinner and at breakfast. Would definitely return and highly recommend.

After a bad experience at a hotel we had paid for, my boyfriend and I came to this hotel who put us up for the two nights we had originally booked for when we had no where else to go. Staff were friendly and welcoming on arrival, gave us all the information we needed for our stay. They went above and beyond for us Our room was amazing, beds were so comfy and room was just a great size, plenty of space. The big bath was amazing to soak in after a day out exploring in the snow! We had dinner and drinks in the hotel restaurant and the food was high standard and tasted amazing! Nothing was too much for the staff who made us feel at home and always made sure we were happy and looked after. We also had breakfast both mornings and the food was just as amazing! A special shoutout to the staff who looked after us both days, James, Dave and Isla, yous were stars! 🌟 there was also another member of staff who looked after us at dinner the first night but we didn’t catch his name but he also went above and beyond for us! Would recommend this hotel for anyone whether if it’s just for a relaxing few days or if you want to explore! Amazing hotel, could not fault this hotel one bit, we cannot wait to come back again thanks again for looking after us 💫

There were six of us who went for a three day break on 30th December 2023. Well what can I say …. Service - excellent. From the time we booked in until we left, the service we received from all the staff was very good . Food - again - excellent. A great choice on the menu. Caters for everyone. Service was very quick and efficient. A glass of wine was served with every evening meal and this was a real surprise. Thank you. Rooms - very warm and comfortable. Pool - good size for a small hotel. Bar - good and friendly. We played board games and lots of space. Entertainment - just what we needed for a Hogmanay break. Funny and good. If you are looking for a few days away, I would highly recommend The Balavil Hotel. Would I go back ….absolutely. Thank you so much for looking after us.

As a single traveller I always worry about how I am treated. The Balavil is the most friendly I have ever used. The staff were very friendly and efficient. The room was first class and the food was also good. it also has a lovely and a very comfortable lounge. Overall a great experience for New Year.

Been to this hotel many times and will keep going back .. Great food and the staff are so nice … great hotel in a great location.. highly recommend. Bar has great selection of whisky and comfortable areas to relax

Stayed over on 27th as a9 closed, was an unexpected great stop with other guests in same position. 2 gents dealt with everyone superbly , cold beer, log fire, great food and comfy bed, will definitely make it a half way stop from Edinburgh to home in Dornoch in future, well done everyone!!
