Our room was renovated and clean, but overall we found the property overpriced compared to what we paid for similar accommodations elsewhere in the Highlands. At this price a free breakfast would have been expected.

Renovated to a much better standard. Rooms clean and to a reasonably good standard. Only let down was the smart comments from the check in male server. Smarmy and left a bad taste. Breakfast could also be improved however would stay again

Great location.
We had 2 nights at the Calendonia, the first night was planned and the room was very small and expensive. The Hotels.com site did not describe the rooms very well at all. The room was clean and comfortable and the staff were helpful and friendly. Car trouble forced us to stay another night. This time we booked direct with the hotel and got an excellent room overlooking the harbour. Again staff were helpful and friendly

Hi we were in a disabled room, on arrival I asked to be transferred to a double room,what we got was seperate beds, which wasn’t close! It was my 63rd birthday did ask to be transferred to a double room, but not available? Sorry hotel was that busy. No sink plug, no pressure hot or cold water in sink, toilet flush handle was loose, both TV’s keep losing Chanel’s! No phone in room to connect reception! We found the prices of their breakfast was actually extensive £15.00 per person !! Very dissatisfied . Qence we just didn’t eat in hotel.

Took it for granted there would be a lift as it was a tall building and I was on the second floor - up two flights of stairs. Apparently it is a listed building so no lift will ever be built. Shame all single rooms on ground floor had been taken. Didn’t use the bistro as it was fully booked until 9 and I couldn’t wait. Room was a very small single but it didn’t bother me too much and I slept well. I’m not keen on self serve breakfast but it was nice enough and staff pleasant. The highlight was a receptionist called Georgia who carried my case upstairs when she saw my look of horror at carrying it, plus bags, up thirty stairs. Such a helpful and warm person. Very big hotel so difficult to be personal with everyone.
