Best Western Kinloch Hotel

WE spent two great nights there in Nov - where the warm reception we recieved from the staff more than made up for the wind and rain outside. We had an excellent room with a sea view but most important (due to my wife having a hip problem) was the large walk in shower. Food was delicious and very reasonably priced. The hotel has mostly been upgraded and the next part to be done is new showers and baths. For those without transport the local bus stops outside the hotel and also across the road is an excellent butcher -we left for home with a large supply of his home made Haggis and black pudding less

The hotel is located in a beautiful area of Arran, with gorgeous views, the rooms are spotless and a good size, beds are huge ,mattress topper was too soft for my liking, pillows also too soft (that's just my preferences) bathroom is a great size and spotless, looks like it's just had a makeover. Hairdryer in the room as well as toiletries in the bathroom, tea coffee making facilities also. Breakfast is a great way to start the day- everything from cereal, fruit, yoghurt, toast, and an assortment of cooked food. Evening dinner was a bit hit and miss, ok but nothing special. Staff are lovely and friendly, nothing was too much trouble for them, overall a lovely place to unwind, well done to all at kinloch less

We benefitted from special deal including return ferry crossings. All the staff are very pleasant & helpful. We had great seaview room. Bedroom was comfortable, bathroom was ok, but tired. However, bathrooms are due for refurbishment over the winter. Breakfast was great. Fresh fruit, yogurts, juices, pastries as well as large range of cooked items. Only disappointment were evening meals. Not of a great standard quality wise, though reasonably priced. Maybe we were unlucky. less

Enjoyed 3 relaxing nights at the Kinloch. Great staff, food, sea view and an amazingly comfy bed. We ate the lamb, venison, curry, fish and all were excellent. A great value winter break. and I could enjoy a swim too. perfect. less

This hotel, part of the Best Western chain is aptly named - THE best Western hotel! I have stayed in a few but this was head and shoulders above the rest. Rooms are well equipped , comfortable and cosy. Staff are fantastic - going above and beyond. If Arran was nearer and more accessible I would be back there on a regular basis. less
