"We were on a road trip around western Scotland and stopped in at Prince's House (without reservations) simply because we'd just visited Glenfinnan monument viaduct. We were immediately made to feel welcome by the floor manager, and shown into a beautiful wee dining room with a nice view of a babbling brook, then given a menu that was tantalizingly hard to choose from. My friend ordered the Grassingham duck (well done), and I ordered venison steak (medium) both with chips seasonal veg. The meal was delicious. The duck was succulent, the venison was served as three slim, pink in the middle, juicy flame grills, and the chips were chunky, fluffy and very moreish. The whisky honey glaze on the steaks was a delight, and the vegetables were done to perfection. We enjoyed the main (and the welcome, and the restaurant) so much that we decided to indulge in dessert. We were not disappointed. Warm, mouthwatering dark chocolate cake; moist apple crowdie sponge cake; and home made ice cream. I went with vanilla, my friend chose marmalade ice cream. It did indeed taste like marmalade but that made it a bit too bitter for her taste, but she was provided with a wee pot of honey to sweeten it with. We hadn't checked any reviews before pitching up on their doorstep, so we were pleasantly surprised by the whole experience and especially the food."

"Popped into this hotel before we went on a boat cruise on Loch Sheil. We were glad we did. We ordered the fish and chips with minted mushy peas which were top notch and both my partner and I enjoyed them. The setting of the hotel was great as well looking out onto the loch and the Glenfinnan monument. It was everything we had imagined of a Scottish hotel. We both loved it. The service was excellent as well as was information we received about a quicker way back to the railway station which cut our time in half when we had done the boat cruise. I definitely recommend this hotel for a tasty affordable meal."

"In my early 20's, going to The Dining Car at 2am after a night out was the move. The breakfast always hit the spot. It's been several years since I visited and the food quality and service has not changed. We arrived around 10:30 in the morning. There were a couple people ahead of us, but it didn't look like too long of a wait so we stuck around. Once seated, our waiter took our drink orders while we looked over the menu. I was surprised to see avocado toast, which isn't an item I remember being available before. All in all, it had great flavor but the bread was too soft/soggy. I think it was partly due to the abundance of EVOO drizzled on the avocado. I loved the sun dried tomato flavored bread, though. Definitely a nice touch. I asked for scrambled eggs, and while they were good, I should have requested cheese mixed in. The home fries were hot and crispy. Unlimited refills on coffee and excellent service. The bakery items looked exquisite, and I'd like to come back to purchase a cake for my next special occasion."
