Bridge of Orchy Hotel (Tyndrum, United Kingdom)

Overnight guests often said they enjoyed a tasty full Highland breakfast that was freshly-prepared and also featured Scottish favourites on the menu like porridge and salmon. Diners who tried the restaurant largely said there was good food.

This hotel's roadside position against a captivating backdrop of dramatic mountain scenery offered direct access to the A82 - the main road connecting Glasgow and Fort William - for onward travel to attractions and beauty spots throughout the Highlands and islands. Walking, climbing and skiing country was nearby for lovers of the great outdoors plus fishing spots and golf courses. Many guests appreciated having the railway station just steps away. The dog-friendly policy was a bonus for visitors travelling with their pet pooches.

The consensus among most reviewers was that this property was well-cleaned with comfortable and well-appointed rooms. Guests staying in the newer annexe rooms often praised their bright and airy feel complemented by modern shabby-chic details. There was also praise for the scenic views enjoyed from many rooms, in particular by annexe guests whose rooms overlooked the river.

Some reviewers mentioned that the owners would do well to invest in replacing the odd aging carpet or item of worn bedroom furniture and updating some tired-looking decor in certain rooms. There were also claims of infrequent interruptions to the hot water supply.

Although many guests said this hotel was well-run by friendly and obliging staff, some critics disagreed. There were occasional reports that some members of staff came across as surly or robotic at times.

Reviewers were sometimes disappointed that there wasn't Wi-Fi access available in all of the bedrooms at this property, considering mobile network coverage was patchy in the area.
