Columba House

Could not find the hotel called the hotel. The hotel lied, saying the hotel sent me an email which it didn't and was rude and unhelpful, and put the phone down. Could not Would never stay here

Lovely quiet self service hotel. Perfect for a jaunt around Kingussie.

I usually find the positive but it’s difficult with this one. We booked in for 2 nights as the location suited us. Fire alarms set off around 2230 due to another person trying to bbq in their accommodation, these people were also very noisy. Did message someone thru app and was advised they would let management know, didn’t hear from them again. Front door is meant to be kept shut but it is difficult to close. The help yourself breakfast - well no milk first morning & hardly anything to choose from, no coffee 2nd morning. Overflowing bin in breakfast room first morning. Water pressure in shower was pathetic. Room was comfortable & clean.

A rather strange place - no staff on site, but the PIN access to get the key was okay. Breakfast cereals with juice, tea, coffee and milk was left in the rather ghostly breakfast room. No yoghurt, though. Our room in the Paddock Annex was comfortable and clean with lovely views over the hills and trees. The bed was very soft but still comfortable. The whole place felt a bit sparse and tired, though, and in need of fresh furnishings more generally.

A weekend for two Had a lovely two night stay. The corner bath was a deciding factor when deciding where to stay. We found the place to be clean and although we didn’t see staff we also didn’t have a need to see them. The key lock was easy to use to collect the key and return it. They were aware of my wife’s dietary needs as we had enquired about places to eat. When we arrived along with the usual tea/coffee biscuit were some harribo which felt like they cared enough to look into alternatives for gluten free. Once parked our car didn’t move until we left we found the hotel’s location to be great for completing walks. I would recommend the cafe along by train station for amazing gluten free options. Some of the takeaways are cash only, there is an atm located at the back of the coop on the high street only a few minutes walk from the hotel. The bath was a bit of a let down as it creaked so much I worried I would be falling through the ceiling. The shower was separate to the bath and was fine. The decor was as expected loved the lamps.
