Absolutely loved this hidden gem. It was a bit far off the path but absolutely worth it. Staff was lovely and the food was so good. We had a huge tub in our room and the bathroom had heated floors.

Slightly faded glory in this charming ex-shooting lodge hotel beyond the back of beyond, with taxidermy, paintings and a Victorian vibe, perfect for a one-night stay. Our rooms were clean and the beds were comfortable; the plumbing almost retro in its age but everything worked fine and the water was hot. Our cooked breakfast and three course evening meal the night before were perfect and there was a good selection of wines. Clientele was predominantly Europeans with a few Brits during our visit. Only complaint was that we couldnt get either of our electric room heaters to work, but maybe they were disabled as it was June. I'd recommend it and go back.

Superbra frukost och middag!! Hade varit värt att åka dit bara för maten! Väldigt trevlig och bra personal! Mycket vackert läge med utsikt mot berg och sjö. Rymlig parkering precis utanför boendet, mycket smidigt. Skulle absolut rekommendera!!

Ok, so the hotel room was a little faded, not to say shabby, although not offensively so. But this was more than made up for by everything else this characterful hotel offers. It’s like a cozy home-from-home in the northern highlands. The fact that the Altnaharra Hotel is genuinely in the middle of nowhere makes the comfortable lounge and roaring open fire seem even more welcoming. Management and staff were extremely friendly and attentive too. Most surprising of all though, was the food served at dinner. On arrival, the host explained that the hotel had only just reopened for the season (early March) and was not providing a full dinner full menu, but they could rustle up fish and chips, or a pie perhaps. So expectations were not high. However, the food actually served to me in the attractive dining room was a revelation. My haggis fritter starter and sticky toffee pudding dessert were both well above average, but the seared chicken and haggis main was a tour de force, similar to what you might expect from a top-end Edinburgh restaurant. The truth is, the hotel manager is actually a highly accomplished chef, but just doesn’t like to boast about it. So overall, if you’re looking for a cosy highland retreat, brimming with charm and character, and you value great food and friendly personal service, then I would recommend the Altnaharra Hotel unreservedly.

Stayed for one night as it was close to Ben Hope. The room was old fashioned, but in a good way . Loved the tartan accessories and the big deep bath was an unexpected nice surprise . I would stay there again if I was going back to that part of the country
