Without hyperbole, our stay here was like walking into a dream. The property is elegant in every detail and yet completely integrated with the setting. The weather was variable during our stay (it IS Scotland), and we found we could relax in our room and watch the moods pass over the loch, from sunshine and bright color to an almost frosty-seeming monochrome. The host and staff were attentive to every detail and completely dedicated to making our stay special. The breakfasts were among the best we have had anywhere, and while there is only one dinner restaurant in walking distance, we found it more than adequate. If you are driving near this area I very much recommend you make time for a stay at this wonderful property.

The Loch Ness Lodge is without equal in the area. The views and grounds are amazing! The decor is pitch perfect, the food is amazing. And the manager, Gabriel is the most attentive hospitality person I met all trip. Do not hesitate to book. ....I travel a lot a write few reviews.

2 night romantic break.
Amazing. As soon as we arrived we were welcomed by Jaro who booked us in and gave us some insights into the area. The hotel is very well appointed and in a stunning location overlooking the Loch. In fact we had a comfortable room with a view of the Loch which is worth specifying when you book. The hotel is very comfortable with several sitting rooms with open fires to enjoy. Only breakfast was served at the hotel which was varied and very pleasant. The staff are all friendly and helpful with good local knowledge. Our 2 night stay was part of a longer trip but easily the highlight. Waking up both mornings to the Loch, complete with a young stag who frequented the garden. A boat trip round the Loch, within walking distance was well worth the time, as was Urquhart castle on the shore. Inverness is a short drive away with plenty to see and do. Further afield is the Culloden battlefield. Overall we had a fantastic stay, special thanks to Jaro and indeed all the staff that were helpful and friendly. We will definitely stay there again, hopefully a bit longer next time.

Amazing quiet nest upon the Ness with a very professional and devoted crew. Luxury, calm and voluptousness at 15mn of Inverness town center. Last but not least, one of the best scottish breakfast I ever had... I will surely come back and suggest to good friends. Thank you LN Lodge!

We stopped off for one night stay travelling back home couldn't have chosen a better place to stay the welcome from Jaro was so welcoming and made you feel like it was your own home he couldn't have done any more to look after us just wish we could have stayed longer. There even was a young stag that visits the grounds of the lodge right up to the window 😀

Staff was very pleasant and helpful. Dinner was at a sister property down the road, but the breakfast was on site and very nice. Resident deer named Angus was a joy to watch graze in the front yard.

5 stars plus. Our concierge was honestly an angel. So friendly, customer service was through the roof as was knowledge of the area and scotch available at the facility. Room was immaculate and clean, amenities were plentiful and the cozy sofa and chairs by the wood burning fireplace were sublime. Breakfast the next morning was great and we were lucky to see a young stag out the window!

The hotel was very beautiful with tasteful decor and great views of the loch. Our room was comfortable and we enjoyed the breakfast very much. The staff was outstanding, professional and eager to help. We were especially impressed with Gabriel who went above and beyond to make our stay special. I would stay at this hotel again if in the area

This was a beautiful hotel! The loch views are wonderful. The site hosts were so friendly and helpful. Our room was lovely and quite large. The only issue we had was the toilet could be difficult to flush, and the water in the bath did run a bit yellow (but we think that's actually just because of the water used in the area - the rest of the water was fine). Overall, we'd definitely stay again and felt it was much worth our money.

Service utenom det vanlige
Lite flott sted slik at man hadde nesten følelsen og bo hjemme hos noen. Servicen var ekstrem. Vi hadde følelsen av å ha en privat butler som hele tiden passet på at alt var bra. ANBEFALES!!
