Breakfast was delicious and staff were friendly. The views were spectacular as well! Beds were comfy and rooms extremely clean. I would highly recommend this place.
Very helpful and cheerful staff.We booked the "tiny double" by mistake but the gentleman on reception solved the problem with a smile.
Tasty food and very welcoming lady in the restaurant both at dinner and breakfast.
We thoroughly enjoyed all aspects of our stay at Loch Leven. The staff were all extremely friendly and helpful. The room was immaculate and very comfortable. The restaurant/bar staff were likewise excellent. The food was amazing as well. The location and views completed the overall package to make our stay there truly memorable.

Hotel is tired and old. But the food at the restaurant is excellent.
Beautiful location, great view, staff was very friendly and helpful. Restaurant for dinner and breakfast - great food for both meals. The bar was a very cool place to spend the evening!
It was sunny out and we were able to spend time on the patio. Great view of the loch.
What truly made our Scotland trip was the gin tour. The owner gave us the tour and shared his passion for Gin. Never liked Gin till I came here! The hotel was old and the room was very small but it served it purpose. Be sure to book dinner as dining options are scarce in the area and it’s a bit of a drive. The food was good and the quaint bar that they had was outstanding. The bartender knew his craft and suggested drinks that suited our tastes and was very cozy with the fireplace lit.
The hotel has a good and scenic location. The room was old and uncomfortable. There was a weird smell in the bathroom. But we only stayed overnight thankfully. The diner was good. Staff was friendly.

The hotel was spotless, cosy, staff very friendly especially the Italian barman. The food tasted great and views were stunning! I loved the outdoor area and surrounding grounds are fab! You can go down to a beach area or go a woodland walk. The only thing I feel could improve it further would be to have a little bit bigger option for breakfast. Oh and more haggis in the Balmoral chicken so that I could actually taste it but other than the food tasted amazing!
We loved our stay at Loch Leven!! Impressed from the time we drove up and saw how lovely it was! Free car park, great dinner food selections, the bar opens at 3pm which was lovely. The staff are friendly and kind. We were a little overloaded on several Scottish breakfasts in a row and they were more than accommodating to figure out an alternative. It's a lovely spot especially if you need a quiet break from the hustle of tourist season!
The hospitality was wonderful and the manager even played chess with our son. He was very engaging and friendly throughout our stay. The room was clean and cozily decorated. Our son was fine on the pull out couch.
Lovely location and great facilities for us though we were just there overnight we could have stayed a few nights and travelled about. Lovey hotel and friendly staff. Dinner and breakfast were lovey and there was a lovely fire on the bar.
