"We were greeted by friendly helpful staff at reception on our arrival.
The small bags of lavender at the lift entrance were a lovely touch.
The room was spotless, the bed very comfortable and I slept like a log.
There was a good selection for breakfast.
Parking was £10, but we ended up in the car park over the road (also £10) as the hotel car park was full.
We would stay here again."
"One of the most wonderful hotels I've stayed in. Every aspect of the hotel is well organized and the staff are superb resulting in a peaceful and very restful stay."
"Culloden House Hotel is an experience steeped in history and warmth. From the moment we arrived, the staff were beyond exceptional. Genuinely kind, attentive, and deeply knowledgeable about the property and its past. Their hospitality alone makes this hotel unforgettable.
The history is what truly sets Culloden House apart. The rooms themselves are visually luxurious, staying here feels like stepping back into the 17th and 18th centuries. Knowing who once walked these halls, the conversations that must have taken place, and the pivotal moments tied to this house adds a sense of magic you simply can’t replicate in a modern hotel.
High tea was absolutely lovely, a true highlight, and breakfast was delicious, thoughtfully prepared and enjoyed in a setting that feels timeless. The grounds are beautiful and peaceful, perfect for wandering and taking in the atmosphere of the Highlands.
Culloden House isn’t about flashy décor; it’s about soul, history, and impeccable service. If you appreciate character, storytelling, and being immersed in a place with deep historical significance, this hotel is truly special."
"The room was spotless and very comfortable. Obviously the Hotel is in transition. By and by rooms are being prepared to welcome guests. Only 11 rooms are available to book at this point.
The price per room is unbelievably low.
Especially since the electricity bill must be enormous. The hotel was overheated and lights were on in almost every hall, lounge and room and stayed on during the night.
Heating as well as the lights.
No consideration was given to the ecological impact.

"We were initially very tensed as we are going to Europe for first time. Communicated with the owners (Karen & George), they were very friendly and eased our anxiety. Karen met us after we checked-in and she was very friendly and helpful. My wife and daughter liked the glamping area very much, its safe. I highly recommend if you are planning for a trip to Loch Ness and need a small private atmosphere."
