All the Hotels enjoy spectacular Highland settings and have been assessed by the Scottish Tourist Board to be at the very top of their 3 Star classification. Everywhere you care to look has a 'million dollar' view. The lochs, hills, sea lochs, coastal areas, mountains, moors and small towns are radically different from anywhere else in Scotland. The difference between the seasons is spectacular and delightful. The light changes, and you are in a different place, it is a photographers' heaven. The Royal (Prefix-R), Ben Doran (Prefix-B), Dalmally (Prefix-D) and Highland (Prefix-H) hotels are grouped over 17miles in the Glen Orchy / Strathfillan area. Not only do they enjoy an unbelievably beautiful setting, they are also ideally placed for exploring the delights of Western and Central Scotland.
Lying in the mountain village of Tyndrum with spectacular mountain views and four acres of sheltered gardens. Extensive lawns, lily ponds and streams on two sides, the gardens are a haven for wildlife and are a joy for flower lovers from spring through autumn.
The hotel has been modernised to exacting modern standards, extended and provided with all modern comforts. It has one hundred bedrooms, a modern lounge and dining room each seating two hundred. All rooms are ensuite with superb furnishings and high quality divans, TV and tea maker. There are three floors serviced by an excellent modern lift. The entrance hall and conservatories provide colour and plants all year round. The public areas are wood panelled, beautifully carpeted, hung with numerous marine seascapes and works of art. A joy to live, work and stay in and yours to enjoy. Run like clockwork by the effervescent Reino.

The hotel has been fully modernised, with large ensuite rooms, beautiful furnishings, carpeting and stunning public areas.

All summer long the hotel is a sea of spectacular flower displays and the subject of thousands of photographs sent across the world. There is lots of glass at the Highland, both the entrance hall and dining room are fully glazed with a southerly exposure. The hotel is noted for the extent of fine panellings, marine seascapes, lots and lots of space and a beautiful, large, high ceilinged entertainment lounge.

The hotel is sited in the village of Dalmally in Strathorchy. It has spectacular mountain views all round from its rooms and three acres of beautiful landscaped gardens. The famous salmon river "Orchy" flows down the Strath and the favourite morning walk is past the ancient medieval church down to the 300 year old "Wade" Bridge to watch for salmon, trout and otter.
The hotel is of modern construction with large ensuite bedrooms and spectacular public areas, awash with plants and flowers. The bedrooms have comfortable modern divan beds, tea makers, TV and controlled heating. Furnishings are modern and crisp; there are heated towel rails in every room.

The Alexandra Hotel (prefix-A) enjoys one of the most spectacular situations in Scotland. It rests between the lodgings of the Bishop of Argyll and the Isles and a beautiful white church. The views across Oban Bay to the isles and the spectacular port are a constant joy and a thrill. Sunsets on a spectacular scale are enjoyed most evenings.
The hotel has a very substantial Victorian shell but inside everything is double glazed space age with a complete rebuilding of the interior. There is a lift to all floors (some steps). The bedrooms are beautifully furnished, decorated and carpeted with ensuite facilities throughout. TVs, heated towel rails, tea makers and great divan beds. The one acre of grounds are beautifully kept and a sea of seasonal flowers. The public areas enjoy fantastic views with every comfort. There is a large entertainment lounge with dance floor and bar. It adjoins the inviting and really beautiful swimming pool.
The hotel is presided over by Bryan who has been with me for sixteen years (he was a boy!), Bryan is smooth and efficient and will do anything for you (nearly anything).A great place to stay.
This hotel has a different tour schedule and price structure to the four hotels above with these excursions making the most if it's idyllic location, breathtaking scenery and focal points. This is an experience which you would never forget and which everyone who enjoys, treasures for all their days.
