There’s a lot to say about this place. I had initially booked it back in fall 2024 and hadn’t seen the poor reviews. The week of our stay I had a bad feeling about going to stay at this hotel, and I read the reviews and almost cancelled our trip to the area and changed our route. I wish I had. The hotel itself is located pretty centrally in Glencoe. But beyond that, it was nowhere near as advertised on the website. Our room was free of clutter, but very dusty. It seemed to only be clean of debris on the floor, but all the trim had a thick layer of dust on it. The bathroom also looked to be nice upon first look, but the shower head had a lot of black build up on it. We also had a completely backed up shower drain that caused water to spill over the lip of the shower. The hotel advertises having restaurants but no availability and hours change constantly. It should not be advertised as a five star hotel and I regret staying.

Let down

The food at the hotel restaurant was terrible. Even tho they claim to be 5 star fine dining. The staff were very kind and helpful but just seemed undertrained. Our room was small hot and stuffy just didn’t match the high price. The bar wasent staffed to make any cocktails Overall just too high of a price for what it was

Nothing like pictured

The photo s and description on hotels .com are nothing like the actual hotel. It is located on. Busy noisy road. The shower in our bathroom did not work. They say they have 2 restaurants and 2nars. In actuality there is Fish and Chips and Pizza restaurant attached. The main dining room is nothing like in the photos and they have no staff there. The bartender from the next room is trying to service both areas

Our stay was nice. However, there could be improvements in the dining experience. We ate in the “Fish and Chips” and the “Pizza” restaurants. They’re all the same, same cook. The food was fair. There’re aren’t other options in Glencoe. The location was nice, the staff friendly. It was only the food options that were a miss.

Picture on website and description of five star inn totally deceitful. On main road and lucky to be two star. Walked out of dining room as seated next to table where people had left most of their meal. Price was a rip off . We got two nights in the West End of Glasgow for that price. Will be writing when home for compensation

Disappointing Stay - Misled by Listing

Our recent stay at the Glencoe Inn was far from the pleasant experience we expected based on the listing. From the moment we arrived, it was clear the property did not meet basic standards of comfort and cleanliness. To start, our room lacked basic amenities like slippers, which were advertised as included. The bathroom was unclean, with dirty toilets that should have been properly sanitized before our arrival. Worst of all, there was no hot water, making it impossible to freshen up after a long journey. Given these unacceptable conditions, we made the decision to cut our stay short and flew out just a few hours after arriving. We feel thoroughly misled by the property’s description and are now considering filing a formal complaint with hotels.co.uk for promoting a stay that did not match reality. The Glencoe Inn needs significant improvements in maintenance, housekeeping, and transparency before it can be recommended to other travelers. Until then, I would strongly advise others to look elsewhere for accommodation in the area.

Very comfortable bed / room, though quite small (and a bit pricey at £275 room only). Some weird plumbing noises but otherwise a peaceful stay in a nice setting. Room decor was tasteful and bed linen of good quality.

Great spot great service in Glencoe.

We had a wonderful one-night stay. Scott (reception and overall guest services) and Roman (waiter and barman) were both fantastic. Food was incredible at dinner and breakfast. Very close to Hidden Valley trailhead for the hiking crowd.
