Do not waste your time or money!!!!This was our family dream vacation to Scotland and up until our visit to the Morar Hotel we were having a great time. We had booked months in advance and the accommodations were not cheap. So you could imagine our disappointment when we walked into our Hostel like condition of a room with the view of an brick wall. The hotel should have had a disclaimer and definitely should have been discounting this room. (To be honest I would even offer a room like this)The phone didn't work, water pressure was awful, beds sucks and it wasn't very clean. We asked to be moved to another room and they could accommodate us so we asked to have the stay cancelled. The on duty manager who couldn't speak English had to call another manager for me to talk with. That manager said he would only refund us the second night, which was a joke to begin with. After securing a new hotel 3+hours away we left only to return to Canada and to receive an email telling us they won't be refunding us our money. This was quite a shock to us and it really tells you a lot about he management of this hotel/Hotel chain. They could care less about their clients, they used false advertisement to secure our stay and they didn't honor the commitment or their word to us on the refund. The only pleasant part was dealing with the lady at the front desk, who's hands were tied. Thanks for a terrible experience Morar management team and for not honoring you word.
Avoid this hotel!

Excellent if using the railway, otherwise a bit isolated, Great views, friendly and helpful staff.
Nothing about our stay, other than the receptionist at the front desk was good. The hotel is in need of an overhaul. They are doing some painting on the outside of the building which meant scaffolding on the outside and in front of our ocean view window - which had plastic draped across it so that we could not see the view even-though we had paid extra for the view.
Stunning views from the room windows. Beautiful and serene. Highly recommend. 3 mile walk into town of Mallaig on bike path. Akram a fantastic manager who goes above and beyond to make sure guests are happy and comfortable.

Nice staff and good food.
This is a hotel with clean basic rooms and no luxuries. It needs updating.
The pictures on the website are not a true depiction of this hotel and the triple room was nothing like what was shown on the website. Did not feel clean staying in this hotel!

Staff at the Morar hotel were friendly and welcoming. Would stay again.
Great location with fabulous views from the restaurant and off road parking.
Staff very friendly. Food was good but not quite as good as I'd had locally.

If I could rate just staff and setting, it would be 6/5! Akram and Tuan were the pillars of hospitality and so kind. The setting and view of the hotel (the deck!) was unbelievable, as were the nearby Silver Sands.
That said, I echo others in saying the price does not match the quality of the rooms. This hotel really is in need of renovation. The downstairs common area and dining room are lovely, so hopefully the rooms can eventually meet this standard.
I’m really rooting for the Morar Hotel - I had a lovely stay despite, and hope future renovations will bring the rooms up to snuff.
A well maintained small hotel. The staff are friendly. Tuan is the desk man, bar man, breakfast man, etc. Working hard and staying friendly and interested and interesting. The dinner was nice. I got the mussells and they were fresh in a tasty sauce with some crusty bread. Huge portion! I couldnt finish and I can eat!
We were very happy to return to the Morar Hotel and were pleased that new owners are operating a welcoming and nicely presented hotel. Not fancy, not over priced, but very clearly under good management with a cheerful atmosphere and a willingness to be helpful.
