Little disappointed 😔

The hotel is old but could do with a little maintenance i.e. towel radiator in bathroom not working, lightbulbs missing and could really do with a clean up around skirtings and around the entrance to the hotel.

A bit outdated but the friendly staff, free outside hottub and infrared sauna in the room made up for that!
Marco, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Sadly booked rooms for a couple of nights in February. Rooms were freezing, reported and nothing changed for 2nd night. Shower in room 1 also ran cold water only. Shower in room 2, was not a shower! Only a trickle of water came out. We will not book again.

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.

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.

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.

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.

The bed was uncomfortable: springs could be felt, with slanted (unleveled) to one side, hot water took 16 min. to warm up- never hot, weird whole in ceiling in bathroom. Staff super nice and safe location.

We had a slight issue at first as we were in a party of 4 and had to get a extra bed in the room but the Staff wee great and when back in the area we would like to stay again great staff very helpful

6/10 Good

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.

We have been on a road trip around the North of Scotland and this by far and away a different league to the other hotels we have stayed in very pleased with this choice 😀

Our stay at the reknowned Grey Gull

Our stay at the Grey Gull was great!..ok so it needs a little updating but the addition of being the only hotel in or around Ardrishaig with hot tubs at a reasonble price reflects this!..The meals were lovely and good options for all the family...service was good and staff friendly...all in all we would certainly return if in the area..🙂
