Cosy, amazing view and food

Amazing room with a 360° view in front of a loch. Fully equipped with high-end features and a lot of charm. Really cosy for a couple. Private terrace to enjoy the sunset. Platters for the dinner and cooked breakfast are also perfect, Karen is really a good chef !

Lovely location, lovely accommodation. Absolutely superb very accommodating host. We had a fantastic time.

2/10 Poor

Definitely not 5 star service and facilities. Reception was rude and cold , and the room is not at all as represented in the listings. Very noisy with no soundproofing, small room without sitting area, and not a superior double room with two bedrooms as represented. Hotel does not accept credit cards for room service (had to go to ATM 8.5 miles away), and does not provide vegetarian options. 3 star to 3.5 star at best. Seriously misrepresented.

Great B&B place, short drive out of Oban. Hosts are gracious and deserving of their many awards. We even got enough sunshine, to sit outside with tea and fresh scones taking in the most glorious views of distant clouds rolling over the loch.

We had an amazing stay! The photos do not capture how lovely the property is. Expansive views and modern design. Breakfast is a must - thanks for the tip, Karen. Worth every penny.

10/10 Exceptional

Lovely small B&B where breakfast is optional (if you're not an early riser). The well-appointed rooms all have a private patio with a comfy love seat and a beautiful view of the loch. A lot of care and thought has been put into the design. Our hostess was lovely and quite helpful and her restaurant recommendation of the Old Inn was truly appreciated - best steak ever in a centuries old stone house. This was a lovely getaway from the more touristy areas and very handy to Glencoe for some very memorable hiking.

We were wonderfully surprised at the very high standard of the property. The attention to detail was exceptional. Quiet, private rooms and everything you could possibly need for a pleasant stay was provided. Would definitely recommend to friends.

10/10 Exceptional

Our room had amazing views of the loch and mountains in the background. The owner is quite courteous and helpful. The accommodations are outstanding!!! Hot tubs, outdoor sitting areas, two indoor sitting areas with walls that are massive windows overlooking the loch, and a wonderful eating area. It’s quiet, peaceful, and the rooms are well appointed. This is a must stay if you’re in the area and have at least a couple of days.

10/10 Exceptional

A great choice for a luxurious stay in a gorgeous remote setting along the loch. The views of this modern property are divine, the common lounge was well decorated and a great place to observe the sunset. Our room was well appointed, with great bedding and an awesome bathroom with both a shower and a bathtub with jets! There were very nice touches including great toiletries, robes and slippers, and a nice tea service in the room. The room can get hot, but a Dyson fan was included. Do note that when you book through Expedia features like the breakfast and scones on arrival are not included and would be added costs. The hostess offers what looked like amazing food options, but we did not use, so cannot comment.

Amazing place

Ardtorna is beautifully designed. We stayed in the room on the 1st floor, amazing views across the loch. Karen is super friendly and she runs a tight ship. Every aspect is taken care of and there is amazing attention to detail. The bed was super comfy and the place is spotless with little thoughtful touches such as warmed scones upon arrival, remote control curtains to reveal the amazing view etc. We were on a couple's get away for the night and we throughly enjoyed the peace and quiet. Highly recommended!

We got upgraded to a better room than we had booked! The room we stayed in was very cosy, with lots of storage (shelves and drawers) and a fridge. The decoration was beautiful. The bed was very comfortable. The bathroom was very well designed and the shower had lots of room. The only thing we might change would be the blinds over the window/door: they looked amazing but did not block the light and I was awaken very early by the brightness in the room. Next time, I'd bring an eye mask.
1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The place is clean, spacious and very updated. Great sea view from room and a quick drive to town. Breakfast was delicious and plentiful! Highly recommend the food. I recommend verifying details regarding check in and breakfast options prior to arriving to ensure no miscommunications. We did not make arrangements in-person when we arrived and did not receive breakfast the first day although we had emailed and agreed to the price to have breakfast both days prior to arriving. This place is great for solo or couple travelers but do not recommend families or large groups. We had 5 in our group across 3 connected rooms and felt like we were walking on eggshells due to sound traveling with no carpet or fabric to absorb it and all tile flooring. Overall, great place!
Sarah, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

No scones for you! I have mixed feelings about our stay at Adtorna. The facilities are nice and location good. However, I have two issues. First, the facility was purpose built but lacks character. It reminded me of a modern German hotel. Second, and most importantly, the owner does not like Expedia customers. For example, all customers get fresh scones and cream upon check-in, except anyone who booked through Expedia. I asked the owner about this and it was because they get less of a cut from Expedia clients. I then asked why they put their booking on Expedia, and they said that "the exposure is priceless" and it helps drive customers to book directly through their website. All that is fine, but why discriminate against the customer? In my opinion, that is very bad business that demonstrates a lack of try concern for the customer experience. All over a a simple scone! At least I got to experience the nice fresh baked smell!
