Lochailort Inn

We were staying just along the road for four nights and called in every night. The welcome was first class and we decided to have a meal on our last night. We were not disappointed. The prawns were superb, the sole beautifully cooked and the mussels out of this world. The local beers are really good and the staff are friendly and helpful. We understand it’s been closed for a while but we can honestly say that the team is making every effort to create an excellent place to eat and drink. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at the Lochailort Inn.

Very grumpy Barman and food not worth the price, had the mussels and hotpot, meat chewy on the hot pot and mussels tasted old, not bad but not worth the price, Very grumpy barman who seemed irritable and tired, not sure if an off day but not what was expected, asked for a Guiness and told “NO we only serve local beers” then offered me a can of Guiness which doesn’t really match up with the “local” speech

Stayed here earlier in the year on a solo motorbike trip. The room was brilliant for the price, and the staff were incredibly friendly and couldn't do enough. The a**osphere in the bar was lovely, and ended up having a good few glasses of wine while having a fantastic dinner. Breakfast was great too. Properly relaxing, a lovely night away. Just went to book another night there for another trip, only to find it's closed for the season. Gutted! Will look again for next year :)

We booked for September about 4 months ago.Got email saying our booking now cancelled with no explanation via ***********.Have had no response from Hotel.Very inconvient at such short notice.Very difficult to find alternative at such short notice.

Thank you to the team at Lochailort Inn. Such a friendly welcome and a great stay. Delicious dinner and breakfast. Very clean hotel and super accommodating staff. A good sleep and a great place to visit all the beautiful sights around Mallaig. Thank you again!

We booked a week in advance and with less than 24 hours notice the hotel cancelled our reservation saying they were double booked citing computer problems. There was a token offer of help. As this booking was part of a round trip and we had already set off it caused considerable disruption to our travel plans.

Three generations had a meal here a few days after a family wedding. The staff were helpful and friendly, even the chef found somewhere quiet for the youngest member of the party to have a little sleep. The menu may have been a little restrictive but we have found that wherever we travelled recently. Everyone enjoyed their meals, the only drawback was no white wine was available.

Booked here because closer to Mallaig was booked out- but ended up wishing we could stay longer and would choose it specifically next time. Warm welcome and comfortable, clean room at a great price. Best surprise was the quality of the evening meal. Top notch contemporary dining. 10/10 would recommend!

We wouldn't recommend staying at Lochailort Inn. In brief, there were no towels or toilet paper in our room, the tv wasn't working (apparently the remote was missing) and there was no wifi available in the bedroom. There was one thin pillow on each bed and we were told additional pillows were unavailable. Couldn't wait to leave. Definitely not worth £125 a night
