While on a guided tour through the Scottish Highlands, my wife and I stopped at The George Hotel in…read moreInveraray for lunch, and it ended up being one of the highlights of our trip. I ordered the traditional fish and chips, while my wife chose the steak and Guinness pie with chips. The fish was perfectly cooked with a light, crispy batter that gave way to flaky, tender fish inside. The chips were golden and flavorful, making for a classic dish done exceptionally well. The steak and Guinness pie was equally impressive, packed with tender beef in a rich, hearty gravy and wrapped in a perfectly baked pastry crust. Every bite was comforting and full of flavor. The portions were generous, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the meal felt like authentic Scottish pub food at its finest. If you're passing through Inveraray, The George Hotel is absolutely worth a stop.

Very happy that they had vegan options for both. My only complaint is that the mattresses were kind of old and saggy- probably need to be replaced.

This review is for a stay for two nights in mid-July 2018…read more We stayed in a standard double room. The look of the hotel room is quite dated with lots of potential for updating. The hotel room also had an "old" smell. One thing to note was that it was unusually warm during our stay in Scotland. The rooms did not have an AC unit (or one that we could find). We also learned that the AC would not be turned on, but we do not know why. So, it was quite uncomfortable to sleep and hang out in the room. The bar/lounge, dining areas, and the stairwells, however, seemed to have AC. So, we tried not to be in our room unless for sleeping. We did not use the spa. We used the pool located indoors. It was larger than we expected and clean. The indoor hot tub beside the pool was working and soothing but the outside hot tub ("Canadian" hot tub) was not working. We did not need to be outside anyway since the pool and indoor hot tub was not crowded. We had dinner and breakfast for the two days and nights we stayed. Both meals were filling with adequate portions. The formal dining was fine and quiet but it was more relaxing to order and eat in the bar/lounge area with the couches and chairs. Meal service was excellent. As for the bar service, they were very accommodating with requests, even accompanying me and personally bringing bottled water and glasses to my room. I was surprised, though, that the bartenders did not know how to make a cocktail on their list. I appreciated that they informed me and were transparent rather than hide the fact and pretend to know. Once they looked up the recipe, the execution was excellent, and I readily and confidently enjoyed another cocktail. The remainder of the hotel seemed very clean. Wifi is available throughout the hotel. The feel of the hotel is an older ambience but the hotel guests varied from mature groups, families with school-aged children and teens, and young couples. The employees are very helpful and courteous, and seem to have an excellent work ethic. Location is great. Slightly removed from the town, but it is a very nice 5-10 minute walk to town.

We stayed here for the two nights on our tour and where not expecting much but really we where pleasantly surprised with the rooms that we where given as they where really nice, with the best views ever. Facilities The hotel had everything that you could ever want and more, jacuzzi, steam room and a hot tub sadly we didn't use any of them. Quite a few attractions nearby with plenty of shops & cafes. Food The hotel does have food on offer but we chose to dine out. I did see that the food that was served to other guests looked great & soup was served in a cup. But be aware that you may leave hungry with the portion size. Bar Looked rather like a nursing home with all the armchairs, beware also of the tartan overkill, chairs & carpets overall a good place.

We were in the area for the Loch Fyne Food Fair and it was handy travel wise. We had a very warm welcome from the owners Jenifer and Alastair who are the friendliest people you will meet. The house itself is an elegant Victorian country house with pretty gardens that you can sit outside in, although the weather wouldn't allow it this time. There are splendid views over Loch Fyne to Inverary. Our room was at the front of the house and had a magnificent 4-poster bed and was immaculately decorated. The bathroom was modern and spotless. There is an inviting drawing room that you can use with a fire and glasses for you to have a drink. The breakfast was delicious and we were offered recommendations for restaurants which Jenifer booked for us. The guest house is near to Loch Fyne Oyster Bar and Inverary for sightseeing. I would highly recommend a stay here and hope to return again.

We got a tour of the hotel and every room has been renovated using Islay timber. It really is something special. In actual fact the whole place was renovated in stages using the timber including the bar, dining room and every door in he place. Some have little features hidden in the knots of the wood. Lots of talking points, including the original murals from back in the day which features the bar locals at the time it was painted. Fantastic.

We have a 6 week old baby and it's so nice when staff are understanding of the difficulties faced at times with a newborn. The staff seated us next the fire so that we were warm and away from drafts. The food is wholesome but doesn't really rock the tastebuds. My starter of breaded Brie was done well and Hubby's lentil soup was piping hot (a must for soup!). Both were palatable and enjoyable. I opted for lasagne which was served with salad and chips. It almost reminded me of a school lunch in that it was comforting. Hubby's burger was well seasoned and quite tasty! Dessert was homemade profiteroles in chocolate sauce. It was tasty but didn't rock the tastebuds. It's a little out the way from Glasgow as it's just outside of Kilwinning. However there's a good sized car park and the staff are simply lovely. Great value for money in that we both had 3 courses and a few non alcoholic drinks for the grand total of £25.
