Let me start by saying that the service in the bar, restaurant and front desk was fantastic. The food was very good. The steak from thier steak evening was on point. Excellent. And the service recived by Neena in the restaurant was superb. The room are very spacious even with 2 suitcasses the was plenty of room to move about

The hotel is in a lovely setting with a restaurant and bar on 3rd floor so guests can take in the views.

Hotel just off main road In Tyndrum. Plenty of parking. Nice large rooms and mine had what looked like new carpet. It’s little old fashioned but clean and you get a lovely breakfast

We spent a very enjoyable night in Tyndrum at the Muthu Ben Doran Hotel. Finding the way in from the main A82 can be a bit of a challenge, especially in the dark. There is a sign but the best advice I could give would be to look out for the Tyndrum Lower Rail Station sign then take a shrp right as you turn down the road. The staff ware very friendly and welcoming, the rooms were comfortable and the meals were good value.

Out of 8 nights in Scotland this was the most disappointing stay. The hotel itself was gorgeous but the staffing levels were obviously very low which impacted on the service provided. Our room wasn't ready on arrival and we were given a twin room instead of a double. As we were already tired by our journey we just accepted the room without quibbling. A number of guests told us that service in the dining room was poor and they were going to eat elsewhere. The food was good but the service poor. Breakfast could have been better if there had been hot plates to put our food on.

Hello, we have just returned from a lovely stay at Ben Doran Hotel. Staff were really friendly and helpful, food was lovely and really big portions. I would say the bedrooms need a bit of modernising now as they do not match the lovely building and reception area which are very modern. However we enjoyed our stay.

The hotel staff especially Chris in reception were a credit to the hotel, Chris went over & above to make our stay memorable & for that were very grateful ? On the downside the rooms were very tired & the good was forgettable ( sorry) but in general the hotel was lovely.

Room heating controlled by management. Not satisfactory.

Really good stay. Despite multiple coaches booked in the hotel was quiet. Rooms clean but basic. Staff worked so hard. Meal on our 2nd night ran like a military operation. 10/10 for staff. Would recommend and would return via my hotel break as best value by far......

Stayed 2nd December 2017

Lovely spacious room. Food well above average. Entertainment surprisingly good. Staff professional enough. Excellent value for money. Only let down were staff when finishing shift late at night talking loudly outside back door which kept us awake for quite a while.

Stayed 2nd December 2017

Very nice hotel in a lovely little village. Rooms a bit outdated but clean, warm and with everything you need. Drink prices reasonable and staff pleasant and helpful. Enjoyed our 3 course meal. Not a huge portion at breakfast but sufficient.

Stayed 1st December 2017

Most enjoyable break in an excellent hotel. The quality of the service and the food was remarkable in what was an inexpensive break away. Our room on the ground floor overlooking the gardens (albeit winter time) was way beyond the standard we expected and the public rooms, bar area and restaurant reflected an environment offering real value for money. The staff were superb. From reception welcome and check-out to brvice and especially restaurant service no-one we encountered let down their team and were indeed a credit to Muthu Hotels. God help us all if a hard Brexit kicks in and these workers have to return to Eastern Europe as it would be a hard push to replace them with British youngsters displaying the same attention to excellence. I'm not trying to make a political point, just stating a sad fact IMO.

Pleasant and friendly staff

Stayed 25th November 2017

We had a good room with a fantastic view. In general the hotel feels a little dated and is clearly set up for Coach parties thereby benefitting from volume and managing costs tightly. This certainly explained the very attractive price that we paid for DBB. The food was of very high standard considering the price paid. The hotel staff were all very welcoming and helpful. We will return

Very pleasantly surprised. Room was spacious, clean and very well equipped, food although quite basic was extremely well cooked and the service was all you would expect from very pleasant staff. Would not hesitate to stay again.

My heart sank. After booking and I saw all the negative reviews on TripAdvisor. My trepidation was not improved when I saw the fleet of Heritage Coaches in the car park. But, the pleasant, efficient receptionist took our details, asked what time we wished to book for dinner and breakfast and advised us of checkout time before directing us to our room. Our twin room was clean, warm with all the necessary facil, plus extra touches of slippers, gowns, shortbread and our pre ordered bottle of wine. Dinner was a treat. Although the dining room was with a coach party, we were seated away. Service was prompt, well presented and well cooked food. Staff were again efficient, attentive and polite. Following dinner, an added bonus was the evening entertainment and a very reasonable bar bill. The very substantial breakfast was a similar experience to dinner. We checked out after having paid just £59. Usually in life, you get what you pay for, sometimes you get even more, this time we did. The experience was a delight. Thank you.

The location was brilliant.

Great location in village of Tyndrum. Very friendly staff. Understand Hotel is now under new ownership. Should be a good stop over for Highland High Way walkers
