We stayed here on our way to the highlands after picking up the car in the airport. Great bed. Spotless customer service. They have an interesting bar as well. As an advise, when they ask you to pick the breakfast time, try to select a time where there is not much ppl as it could take longer for you to be served. I will definitely stay here again. Thanks!

They advertise "food served all day" but couldn't serve us lunch at 1pm on a Friday. Wish they'd take their signs in so we didn't bother to stop.

Just had the best time at this hotel! Staying as part of a group you don't always get the best service. This cannot be said of here!!! The staff are all lovely and go above and beyond to make sure you have the best of times. Breakfast was always a treat ....with so much to choose from. The kippers were especially good btw. Well done to the team at the Crianlarich Hotel....10/10 for your efforts!

Booked for 3 nights and ended up staying for 4. Location is perfect for day trips out to Oban, Inverary, Glen Coe, Killin etc. Room was basic but served it's purpose, wink wink. Yes, the fittings and decor in the rooms are dated but the reception, bar and restaurant rooms are beautiful, with tartan carpets, wood panelling and comfy seating. We ate our evening meal in the restaurant on 2 of the nights we stayed and thoroughly enjoyed all meals. Pizzas the first night and Pasta and Thai curry the last night. Starters and puddings were lovely too. Reasonably priced too. I do have to wonder why the Full Scottish breakfast doesn't contain Lorne Sausage though. Still yummy. The bar is lacking in beers on tap, but there's enough to satisfy most tastes. Not the cheapest drinks but you are a somewhat captive audience. At this time of year the Rod and Reel Pub down the road is only open Fri to Sunday, though the lodge further along the road offers equally good food and drink. You can even sit outside the Shop/Post Office and drink what you buy in there. Staff are all very friendly and polite. Train station is a mere 5 min walk away. I have to state that we got a 3 night deal on Groupon which is considerably cheaper than the usual rates. We are definitely looking at staying here again though. We love this part of the World.

We presented ourselves at 18h45 for diner and were offered a table at 7h15. Once we came back the manager decided we were pushed back at 08h30! Giving no reason ans telling us they didn’t care this was too late. Had to rush and find somewhere else.

Just wanted to stop for some coffee in the bar/restaurant since a sign with "food and drink all day" was up. The staff told us the bar was closed until 11am 🤷 they were very unwelcoming and unfriendly. Go to the next city for some coffee, you won't miss anything

An old, large but pleasant hotel - perfect as an overnight stop if heading to the north of Scotland but also as a base for visiting Glencoe, East to Loch Tay and the Trossachs or south to Loch Lomond. Travelling north we were given a lovely modern large room, near the lift, with plenty of room for a wheelchair. It had a smart modern bathroom, a large very comfortable bed, TV and tea and coffee making facilites. However travelling south on our return journey the room was very different - down long narrow corridors and a steep ramp. The room was small, less attractive with an overpowering smell of mould which was round the main window and all round the bathroom. Food is basically pub grub but the restaurant is large and very pleasant with log fires, and friendly staff. Breakfast is very good with a wide range and is served in a different also large and attractive room. Parking is limited for such a large hotel and mostly across the busy road.

Lovely staff, gorgeous restaurant, lounge and bar area. Great options for drinks and food. Usual breakfast continental and then a hot menu. Not much to do in the area but we knew this already from walking trips. The room let the overall rating down as it was not cleaned properly (dust, dirty skirtings, peeling wallpaper) and mould on the windows, blinds, shower, walls around windows with the main room window letting a bad draft in/water and the shower room window was cracked from the outside.

I had an amazing stay at Best Western The Crianlaich in the Highlands! From the moment I arrived, the service was outstanding – the staff were incredibly friendly and attentive. The rooms were spotless, cozy, and provided a perfect blend of comfort and charm that made it feel like a home away from home. The food was a real highlight – from breakfast to dinner, everything was fresh and delicious, with plenty of options to suit all tastes. The views surrounding the hotel were breathtaking, making it a wonderful retreat for anyone looking to experience the beauty of the Highlands. I can't recommend this place enough and will definitely be coming back!

Dismal. The window won't open as it's nailed shut. Room was stuffy and the presence of mould around it indicates that this is not a new problem. Staff were apologetic but useless. I stay in a lot of hotels in my line of work, especially in Scotland... but this is a new low. I don't know how much the room was as it was booked by my employer.. but apparently they sting you up to £178 for this experience.

We stopped yesterday by this hotel to buy some food for dinner as we were passing by. We got halloumi burger and goat cheese pizza. We paid around £50. The burger bun was old and not fresh and the goat cheese pizza we barely tasted the goat cheese. Not to mentioned the service we received. I was going to order first a chicken burger and when I asked the lady “ is the chicken local/ fresh ?” She replied “ I am sure didnt catch the chicken” she was sooo rude and the people there weren’t welcoming. Very unsatisfied and we are not going to eat there from there or stay ever again!

Ghastly western... Please AVOID this terrible hotel.. Please.. You will thank me for it... But you don't need to... I have been on a road trip to the Outer Hebrides over the past two weeks. I've stayed in many hotels, hostels and camping and I can honestly say, that this was the worst hotel..there was no fan as it didn't have a plug on it.. What!?!?!? The shower dripped all night, the decor was from the 1920s.. nothing wrong with the 1920s... If it WAS the 1920s!! The chicken salad was revolting... The worst I've ever had!! Service was okay.. The best of all.. But honestly..I could go on and on...I won't because I don't have the time.. But please guys, girls, one and all... Please avoid this hotel.. Oh.. it is also over priced! Before you think that I moan for a living, I have stayed in many many hotels/hostels/Pods/Airbnb and really enjoyed all.. And I'm on a road trip.. This was the worst.. Please.. Just... AVOID.. drive further down to that next hotel.. Or get a tent and camp... It'll be cheaper and you'll be much, much better off. ... Wish I took photos but I was in such a rush to get out of there..!

Cycled the West Highland Way route from Inverarnan to Crianlarich. Got there at 5 p.m. Though it was dry weather and our kit was clean, was unsure what the reception would be when we asked if we could use the bar. We needn’t have worried. Got a warm welcome and good service.

We’ve booked 2 rooms here as we’ve been here a couple of years ago and had great experience then. Turned out that not all of the rooms are renovated. One of the bedroom was authentic and cosy, while the other looked like it hasn’t been touched since 80s’. The contrast was enormous. It was clean, but 40 years of wear and tear is not appealing. Stayed 5 minutes this time and left. The receptionist was super professional.

I had a wonderful triple salmon starter -- cold smoked, hot baked, mousse -- then lovely flavourful venison in peppercorn sauce. The 2nd day I had chicken with black pudding and creamy mashed tatties. Both times I had the very pleasant East Coast IPA. Great service and reasonable prices.

The room we had was very small with a very narrow double bed. The bathroom was small and an (old) leak was clearly visible in the paneling of the bathtub. The "continental" breakfast buffet is nothing, the breakfast dishes that you can order from the menu are tasty, but there is no healthy choice. Dinner in the restaurant was very tasty, and there were healthier options available. The staff is friendly. The location is central and it is an excellent base for, among others, Loch Lomond and Glen Coe.

Nous sommes venus par rapport à la popularité de ce restaurant sur trip advisor. Au téléphone pour réserver à l’avance, la personne au bout du fil était déjà plutôt cassante sans aucune raison, bon. Lorsque nous arrivons, nous avons du mal à repérer le restaurant qui n’est pas clairement indiqué par des panneaux, nous voyons des tables à gauche de l’entrée de l’hôtel mais nous ne savons pas comment y aller. Nous croisons une serveuse qui part à droite, nous la suivons donc jusqu’à un bar, je lui demande donc en anglais très gentilment si c’est bien ici, nous avons réservé une table pour deux… elle répond ironiquement qu’ici c’est le bar et qu’il faut aller au restaurant. Je demande donc si le restaurant est dans un autre bâtiment, et elle me répond comme si j’étais bête que c’est juste à gauche. Je reconnais sa voix, c’était la femme au téléphone. Bref accueil plutôt peu accueillant aux premiers abords. Prise de commande, elle donne son opinion sur tout. Mon père ne connaît pas trop les bières, il en choisit une. Elle me dit à moi qu’il a choisi la “worst”, la pire. Je traduis à mon père qui ne parle pas bien anglais. Mon père change de choix… alors que les goûts sont propres à chacun. Idem sur la cuisson de la viande, mon père aime saignant, elle fait une drôle de tête, mon père pense s’être trompé sur la traduction, non c’est juste qu’elle n’aime pas saignant. Ok… Elle demande si on veut de l’eau, je réponds oui, de l’eau plate (still water) parce que je n’aime pas l’eau pétillante (sparking) et elle répond qu’il faut savoir si on veut still water ou tap water parce que l’un est gratuit et pas l’autre. “Ok, l’option gratuite” je réponds à son ironie. Bref rien que pour l’accueil j’ai enlevé une étoile. Ensuite j’ai enlevé une autre étoile parce que les plats étaient bons dans l’ensemble mais pas exceptionnels, mon entrée était excellente (soupe écossaise), mon plat moyen (Chef’s pie) la tarte étant vide et le bœuf à côté, du coup bon mais sans plus, mon cheesecake n’était pas mauvais mais plutôt fade par rapport à d’autres cheesecake que j’ai goûté durant mon séjour. Mon père a prit le haggis en entrée : il a adoré. Le plat : correct. Le dessert : bon et bien présenté mais sans plus. Ce restaurant ne mérite pas selon moi les 4,5 étoiles qu’il a actuellement sur trip advisor. Ça reste bon. Un accueil plus chaleureux ou du moins plus professionnel serait mieux.

Very nice hotel. A good pint served by very good bar staff. 3 front=of-house staff seemed a bit more off-hand when we arrived. Not a big deal, but we asked wher ethe bar was, they broke off their conversation for a moment to tell us and then went back to talking - nobody got up and offered to show us through. That was a bit disappointing given this hotel is quite empty off season so the front of house perhaps need training in welcoming guests. That being said, based on what I saw, I would be happy to stay here to try it out properly - so may come back if walking in area.

Probably one of the worst meals we've ever had on one of our bike tours. The service was shockingly slow, so much so that we noticed some dinner guests just walk out. Our group of 8 had booked for dinner a few weeks in advance, but the staff were struggling to coordinate any orders & some of us were served 40 mins after the first orders came out. I mentioned to the waiting staff that the delays were noticeable & it was embarrassing - the manager's response was that they were short staffed - I said that they should have told us that there would be a 30 minute wait for orders & we would have been prepared. They thanked us for the feedback - isn't that basic hospitality training or etiquette? We found 2 or 3 meals to be bland, when they should have been spicy. Try the pub about 300 yards up the road - that was fantastic.

We were staying nearby and decided take away pizza was a good idea. Sadly it wasnt. 1. Online information incorrect - prices charged were the restaurant prices - When challenged - the staff said " oh thats wrong online, always is" 2. When asked it they were doing pizza tonight- " we are a bit busy, let me ask kitchen". I identified that if they were,I needed to know as local shop closing in 15 mins. I was told it would be 15-20 mins 3. 35 mins later and local shop now shut, my food arrived. 20 potato wedges for £3.50 and not warm. pizzas flatter than roadkill . The image does not really show how flat it was. 4. also while waiting in bar, listening to the guests complaining about their rooms too. No evidence of management - saw three young ladies barely out of school, if they were. So got home, having spent £50 on 3 pizzas and 20 wedges- it wasnt an enjoyable dinner. The images of the pizza on this listing bear no resemblance to what i got. I should have driven to Glasgow for an hour to get a dominos. Dont eat here.

The dining room is a bit cavernous, but we were served competently and in a timely fashion … we were advised to arrive at our booked time, because of limited staff resources. This was a story we had heard throughout Scotland and the Isles. However, we had a correct sirloin steak, with trimmings, and a good choice of wines by the glass. I’d happily eat there again.

We had pre-booked a table for 9 a few weeks in advance. We sat down at 8pm but noticed the service was pretty slow & a couple of customers seemed to be getting a little frustrated about the delay in being served. When our orders were taken we were told that there was not chicken, so a few things weren't available. Some of our main courses didn't arrive until 10pm, with about a 10-15 minute gap between some of us being served. The venison didn't come with a jus as advertised, but peppercorn sauce (the person who ordered hadn't been asked about an alternate) & the potato roost was hard. The homemade beef pie had a massive puff pastry top, but very little beef in the 4 portions ordered. The chilli con carne was very bland & inedible. We mentioned the problems with the waiting staff & were advised that 2 staff hadn't turned up in the morning & they had problems in the kitchen. We told the waiter that we should have been informed about a likely wait when we ordered (managed our expectations), but the poor quality of the food is another matter. The manageress knocked the cost of the chilli from the bill, but we had one member of our party who hadn't eaten! Other customers were also expressing their disappointment, so all in all, not a place we would return to or recommend.

Had a nice evening at the hotel. Bedroom very clean and comfortable. Food in the restaurant in the evening was excellent and breakfast in the morning was also excellent. The restaurant staff were fabulous. We were well looked after by Kristen who was very pleasant and friendly. The male waiter was also very good, friendly and efficient. The only reason I dropped a star was the fact that our room was freezing when we arrived and although the receptionist adjusted it, the radiator didn't get warm until about 9 in the evening. The helpful lady on reception did put a portable heater in our room so we couldn't ask for better service. Overall a lovely stay.

arrived here after a very long and soggy leg of the WHW eagerly looking forward to a little luxury, how wrong we were! Our room was small, dark and very cold, there were cobwebs hanging from the ceiling and after several attempts with the thermostat we were unable to get the heating to work. After some time we were given a small plug in radiator, which was completely inadequate. We showered to get warm and headed to the restaurant hopeful of a nice warm meal to compensate. Again, how wrong we were, we were greeted by a waiter who calmly informed us of what amounted to over a 1/3 of the menu that wasn't available including any pizzas despite there being a huge sign outside claiming there excellence. When I enquired why there was such a limited menu, I was met with a very curt and rude response. My vegetarian chilli was entirely tasteless disguised by an enthusiastic amount of chilli heat and the accompaniment of Nacho's was replaced with Naan? On a positive note, the veggie breakfast was very tasteful and the complimentary drying room, complete with newspapers for our wet boots was a real bonus and the reason that I gave 2 stars and not 1.

Not having planned particularly well, we were glad to find The Crianlarich at just the right time in our journey. The dining room was more or less empty, a quiet lunchtime in late December. Despite that, it was warm & welcoming (decor a little bit “classic highland”, stuffed animals et al). Kids had pizza, and were very approving (slightly thicker bases than they’re used to). Grownups had soups and fish (the latter being especially good). All was served really quickly, but very obviously freshly cooked. We wanted a quick and delicious stop on a long journey, and this fitted the bill very well.

While staying in the area on vacation, we originally saw the sign for take-away pizza, and then came back for dinner the next eveningI had the Mushroom cheeseburger, chips and cole slaw.My wife had the Steak Pie. This came with the beef and sauce separate from the flaky roll. Sometimes, this is served as a “pie” with the beef enclosed in the crust. Also came with a mound of excellent mashed potatos (chips are another option) and mixed, steamed vegetables.Both entrees were very good. The takeaway pizza was good as well. Lots of cheese which we former Wisconsinites just love.Good service, reasonable prices.There is also a nice local pub between the Best Western hotel and the restaurant. Friendly service and good local conversation

I don't think that there was enough staff to deliver hot food to the table. Hence, plates were cold.

We arrived at 1.15. We wanted some lunch. The restaurant was a quarter full. We sat in one of the window tables, the other two also being occupied by couples. Waitress and manager arrived to advise we could sit there. Why ? It was a table for 4 of course . Not reserved for anyone in particular but they wanted to keep it free in case a hungry foursome arrived some time soon. But the place is practically empty. Shrug. What about the couples at the other window tables - one of whom has just paid the bill. “They sat down before we could stop them.” Pythonesque but not funny.

This restaurant was a pleasure. The interior is attractive and the staff is welcoming and attentive. A bit pricey but worth it. All in all it was a pleasant experience and we would go back. There are several small rooms near the full bar where you can eat as well.

Delicious puddings and well prepared mains. Service was reasonably fast even though there were a number of diners.

Had dinner on two nights and loved every mouthful. Would recommend shin of beef, steak in fact everything. Highly recommend white chocolate and raspberry creme brulee which is lush.

Beautiful decor in this hotel although upstairs carpet could do with a shampoo. Drying room available for our wet walking gear which was great. Staff were reasonably pleasant and helpful. Hairdryer in the room was not great for my masses of hair, it took forever to dry. Evening meal was very tasty and reasonably priced. The breakfast was my favourite part and had fresh pastries as well as all the other essentials. Within a 5 mins walking distance to wee shop and local pub was a bit further along the road. Friendly locals and a stunning setting as we set off in the morning on our walk. Probably stay here again.

Went for a family dinner drawn in by the kids spotting the big neon Pizza sign outside. The 3 kids have pizza more often than I would care to admit but none finished them which says enough. I tasted it myself and the tomato base seemed more like a puree than a pasata and was very strongly flavoured which overpowered the pizza. Perhaps the chef was over thinking the pizza when a simple sauce would be better. A real shame as the steak pie the adults both had was pretty good.

There were not many customers at the time but the service was quite slow. Menu had some good choices but the food was just mediocre.

Homely feel to restaurant and all food over four days was well cooked. Staff are quite obliging and very responsive to any friendliness towards them

We were traveling from Fort William to Stirling in a cold rain. This was a charming stop for warm food. The interior was pleasant and cozy. We had steak pie, beef shin, soups and sandwiches. All were good.

From the moment we walked in soaked to the bone we were made feel welcome and treated with utmost respect. We went back for dinner and the expert service from Mary made the delicious food even more appetising.

Wir haben am Ende einer Wanderwoche auf dem WHW dort zu Abend gegessen und waren positiv überrascht. Feine Vorspeisen, überraschend leckere Pizzas und kreative Nachspeisen. Dazu eine gute Flasche Wein und ein freundlicher und zuvorkommender Service.

Nice friendly service and good food after a long day. My friends had pizza, both looked yummy. I had fish and chips, the fillet of fish had been halved and I was only given 1/2! I was very hungry and could have easily eaten the other piece!

This was a good stop for us on the way back from hiking up Ben More. We were a little early but the staff were very accomodating in preparing a few takeaway pizzas for us. The pizzas were a quality and the selection with local ingredients combined made some great flavours.

Lovely room and hotel! Scenery amazing. Food was great and staff were very friendly. Only thing I'd do if I came back would be a room at rear of building. The road outside can be busy and a bit noisy.

What can I say, perfect service by Milda and the food was really good with bigger than average portions. We ate in the hotel both nights we stayed which is unusual as we normally eat out. It felt there was no need.

We have spent a fantastic weekend at CRIANLARICH HOTEL the check in was simple the room was big and very clean it looked like the hotel has had a make over as the heating looks very modern and very easy to use the corridor have all very new LED lighting and very bright and clean. We had dinner on our first night the restaurant was lovely the staff very nice indeed the food was excellent,so much so we decided to book for another meal on our second night. This is a great location as GLENCOE is just just 30 miles away stunning scenery and plenty to do. the hotel also has a " drying room" if you get caught out in the weather which is a great idea. And a bus stop is right outside the hotel so you can get there by bus very easily. I would imagine this hotel will book up very quickly in summertime as the location is superb........ This is WELL WORTH A VISIT, YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED.

We visited as a party of 10 for the Murder Mystery weekend. The menu as you would expect was fairly restricted but the food was good, The duo of Salmon was very pleasant the chicken main was fine and a good size portion and the cheese pleasantly was not straight out of the fridge.

Rather like the previous restaurant I reviewed nothing disappointed but nothing shone. Service could have been a bit more attentive and food was good: Cullen Skink and a salmon Caesar. The Caesar was enormous and had whole pieces of garlic - that was a first for me!

The Crianlarich was fantastic from start to finish. Deborah at the reception desk was very helpful, the room was lovely and the hotel overall was perfect. The bar staff were a great laugh and the servers during dinner were very professional. Kenny the manager was fantastic. I can't fault the place in the slightest.

Great staff, helpful and a surprisingly good menu, after being somewhat disappointed with reception, the room and the beer, we were really pleased with our evening meal experience.

As a business traveller, I have stayed in many hotels of all price ranges across the north and west of Scotland. My recent stay at Crianlarich certainly is a stand out. A small but great team - quick check in, friendly bar service and both dinner and breakfast service was exceptional and very tasty. My room was one of the recently reburbished and it was incredibly comfortable - high quality linens, comfy bed and nice shower (fluffy towels!) It’s important for me to have good WiFi service for work purposes and I was able to connect easily and had good and consistent signal strength. Will definitely stay again and highly recommend.
