Could do better.
This is a tired hotel that is trying to do its best. Lovely location on the loch and gives easy access to places of interest. Reception is not covered from late afternoon and in the morning, there is a phone number to use in case of emergency. Food ok. If you have pets with you be prepared to be a 3rd rate guest. Table not laid out for you, the only tables to use are at the entrance to the guest lounge or next to the swing doors to the kitchen. So not a relaxing time. We were there for 2 nights, and our room was not serviced after our first night. Not what i would expect for a three star hotel. I would suggest you check out other hotels in the area, for a few £s more we could have stayed at Stonefield castle, a few miles down the road set in its own grounds!!! We live and learn!@@

Comfy hotel!
Had an overall great stay! Very clean and nice staff. The only thing that’s negative worth mentioning was that it took a very long time to get hot water in the shower and the tub. And after the hot water was running in the tub there was no way to get the cold water running. Except for this, a comfy bed and nice breakfast made this a nice stop along the way.

We were there for 3 nights. Room was clean but way going to restaurant was disgusting, carpet is muddy. There was no hot water in the bathroom/toilet, had to use tap ice cold water for freshen up in the morning, informed to staff said they can't do anything the engineers will come after 12 noon. Rooms are very noisy can hear even toilet flush and jumping and all from other rooms

Enjoyable stay at Grey Gull Hotel
The Grey Gull Hotel is an old building and requires much renovation. However our bedroom was large, clean and we enjoyed our one night stay. The staff are all very pleasant and helpful. Would certainly return especially at the price it is at present.

Great place for an overnight stay
It is an old hotel which needs a lot of work doing to it. However our bedroom was spacious, had been updated, had everything we needed and was very clean and the B&B price per room was mist reasonable. The breakfasts were very good, and a lovely view of Loch Fyne from the dining room. All the staff we spoke to were very welcoming. Would certainly come back again if looking for accommodation in Ardrishaig.

Room was clean. Restaurant staff was kind and courteous. However, there was no hot water in the room, and the front desk was unattended. After a long travel day, the expected hot shower was not realized.

8/10 Very good

Great stay
Room was absolutely massive and bed was super comfy. Only downside we had was that the hot water took forever to get to a decent temperature and it wasn’t really all that warm but just had to go for it really so probably take a mark off for that. Other than that though thought the room was perfect. We had dinner in the restaurant and it was absolutely tremendous 10/10. Actually the second time we’ve ate there and never had any faults with the quality of the food. One other downside and it’s not really that much of an issue personally but can see it being for others is that the place appeared to be severely short staffed so there was often a long wait for drinks and all that but like I say not really an issue for us and we were happy enough to wait. Would be more than happy to stay here again.

Auto shower ie leak in this weirdly designed room
A real shame here with this hotel, we received an email in advance of staying inviting us to the grill that evening and to be honest it sounded good. When we arrived, well this is when strange things started To begin with no one on reception, a note to call the emergency number, but only an out of hours number listed. Off to find someone, anyone and finally found a couple of gents in the restaurant who looked like a startled rabbit in the headlights, who then called back for a nice lady to come and look after me. Turns out she was housekeeping but had been landed with a host of extra responsibilities (really does deserve being recognised for that Extra work), so checked in and informed the grill wasn’t working due to lack of gas!? Anyone someone was coming later and they will get it sorted, fingers crossed The car park seemed to be drastically under available and it was like a crazy parking game trying to find somewhere Short of space now, so we had water come thru when the room above was having a shower, the door rattled at night so ghosts were trying to get in, the dressing table assumed you had very short / no legs, whilst to turn off the bedside lights you had to stand up out of bed. Really incredibly badly designed room & we had to use the ironing board to prop the door shut to stop it sounding like someone/thing was trying to get in. Whoever designed this room but have been smoking something really unusual. The finishing around the tiles was skipped during snagging

Good people and facilities.
Stayed in room 1 for a business trip. Really nice and helpful staff. It looks like it is slowly being modernised as it is an old building but facilities are good with a great location. Definitely want to return in future for leisure with my partner.
