The Lodge on the Loch Hotel Review

Between the edge of the loch and a semiforested rocky ridge, this granite hotel dates from the 19th century. Only a handful of the high-ceilinged guest rooms are in the mansion's core; most are in a bulky-looking 1960s extension but are just as comfortable, with a mix of conservative and traditional furnishings. Some units even have an Eastern or Art Deco influence. If the hotel is full, there are two other choices (under the same management) within a short drive. The restaurant is one of the big draws, serving an expensive fixed-price dinner that features Scottish produce and many variations of salmon, trout, and pheasant dishes. There's also a cocktail bar with a log fire and a fine selection of whiskies.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
