Very Good

We had a wonderful stay at the Highlander Hotel. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the breakfast was very good. We chose the half-board option, which included a three-course dinner (starter, main course, and dessert), and the food was good—especially considering the location.
We really enjoyed our stay and would like to thank everyone at the Highlander Hotel for their hospitality.
Excellent ensuite room, very spacious and well-equipped. Also very clean and very quiet. Plenty of parking. A short walk to the town centre so very convenient for local attractions and amenities.
Very nice place to stay. Tasty cooked breakfast + cereal bar available. Good level of cleanliness. Very pleasant and helpful staff. Newtonmore overall is a charming place to stay, with the wildcat trail and cat statues. Best if you come with your own car though if aiming to go around as the public transport from Newtonmore is understandably a little sparse!
Wonderful hotel in a woodland setting. We enjoyed our supper and appreciated that the breakfast was included in our price. The staff was friendly and helpful.
Really clean hotel with very friendly and helpful staff. Lost my phone and everyone went above and beyond to help in the dining room and reception. Nice touches like 4 cups in the family room with enough milk sachets etc for everyone. Lovely location. Very good breakfast.
The highlander is our go to stopping point when we’re heading to Glencoe. We usually have our small dog with us and it’s great that it’s dog friendly. We’ve stayed 3/4 times now and would definitely stay again. It’s clean and the foods good.
I was a bit apprehensive bringing a group here due to previous reviews and I can honestly say I was pleasantly surprised the rooms were a good size , bathrooms seemed almost brand-new, tea coffee facilities, hairdryer, bathroom amenities etc all as you would expect. nice big parking areas, bar was great staff were great and the breakfast was also a decent offering for the Price. If anyone else thinks differently I would happily give them some names of properties nearby which this hotel is twice as good as.
Large, clean room with a king size bed. Big toilet with excellent shower. Staff very helpful and friendly. Good choice at breakfast and the evening meal and bar were very good value.
