“Walking distance to Castle Eilean Donan, Good restaurant”
+Of all the places I stayed in Scotland, this was the least favorite...the room was adequate. The bed was comfy. My room was quiet, which was a plus. With that said, the food at the restaurant was very good! I had the yummiest chicken ceasar salad, with tender chicken, perfect dressing and seasoning, and even had pomengranate seeds to add a little more flavor. The parsnip soup was fresh and delicious and served with this amazing warm homemade bread and an herbed butter! Super healthy and so flavorful (I had trouble finding salads and healthy foods while in Scotland, so this was perfection) Breakfast was also very good. The location can't be beat if you want to visit Eilean Donan Castle (which was the reason I stayed here, so I could photograph it at sunset and sunrise). You could easily and safely walk to it.
−The room was very bare. The bathroom was small with no place to put your toiletires or put on your makeup. I suppose they could put a big mirror in the room above the desk so you could put your makeup on there? Or maybe add some shelves in the bathroom?

“Perfect for us”
+Lovely hotel with friendly welcoming staff. Nice bar & restaurant. The menu was good, food delicious. Comfortable room , slightly on the small side & no TV. Very nice breakfast. Car park was large & close to the hotel. Unfortunately didnt get time to check local area as we were short of time on the NC 500 Route
−Tv in the room maybe

“While the location was good, the Dornie was not worth the price we paid for our rooms.”
+The location of the Dornie made a great resting place to get to Isle of Skye to the West, and to see the Eilean Donan Castle to the East. The breakfast was very good here.
−At check-in, the staff were confused about our room assignments and initially could not unlock one room, though the issue was later resolved. Wi-Fi did not reach our end of the building, and the staff said they could not fix it. Our rooms also had very few accessible outlets; one had none in plain sight, so we had to move a nightstand to find one. The staff tried to help but were not always able to resolve our concerns.

+The staff Duncan and Petra were lovely and great food from the kitchen so thank you to the chef too. Good location and amazing to think Queen Victoria had stayed here
−Plumbing ... we know older buildings have issues and there was a sign in room 2 explaining what to do if pressure low. ...but 4 attempts at a shower at different times is a problem. Coupled with no cold water at the basin and a toilet that wouldn't flush......started to spoil our experience of what otherwise was a good 2 night stay.

“Disappointed”
+Hotel and setting were fine
−No tv in bedroom. Tried to use SkyGo via iPad but wifi signal non existent in bedroom as was phone, although ok in bar area but background noise on a Friday evening not ideal. I believe hotel pricing is geared to hit the tourist. Overpriced B&B (£165 in mid Oct) the same with restaurant pricing. NB this was part of a 10 day tour of Scotland and was hoping this would be the highlight.
