This was a gem of a property! We loved everything about it. The views were phenomenal and with the property facing east, it was perfect for watching the morning sun rise. Everything was exceptionally clean and the lounge was so cosy. The beds were comfortable and my family of four had a very restful nights sleep.

Make sure you do the walk from the main road, down to the river, cross it and climb to Varrich Castle ruins. Good exercise after a day in the car and the most wonderful views. Dinner and breakfast at the Ben Loyal was really good.
The locals in the bar were so friendly. Many thanks to Fergus and Findlay!

lovely hotel and comfortable rooms, food overpriced on bar menu but was very good apart from king prawn starter wasn't king prawn and at 10.50 was very overpriced.
best breakfast we have on our nc500 journey so far.
not much going on round about but would recommend hotel to anyone
The location really is spectacular, right on the shore line. It was amazing to see the tide going in and out and the beautiful scenery surrounding the Kyle of Tongue. The cottage itself is very comfortable, clean and very well equipped. There couldn't be a better place to stay to explore this part of Scotland. We loved staying there and would have enjoyed a longer time than we had available.
We loved staying here. The staff was exceptional, always very welcoming and helpful and our room was adorable. We had dinner at their restaurant that night and the food was exceptionally delightful. The hotel, while obviously still an older building with its quirks, felt more high end than we expected. There was even a complimentary tasting left in our room for us to guess and that was fun.
We loved everything about this hotel! From the absolutely stunning location, conveniently located for some great hikes, to the above and beyond friendliness of the staff (special shoutout to Mike!), to cozy and atmospheric rooms, incl. great bathrooms and a little welcome sherry. We stayed at 5 different properties in various parts of the Highlands and this was our favorite and a true gem.
Room was so comfy and charming - really loved the complimentary sherry and tartan throw. The restaurant served great food, and the front desk/ service staff in dining room were all so warm and friendly. The hotel is also well situated, stones throw from Castle Varrich footpath.
The cottage (Kildinguie) was clean, tidy, and well appointed. The location was exceptional with views of the Kyle of Tongue and wiithin walking distance of good pub and hotel, both serving good food. Kildinguie was readonably priced and we happily stay there again.
This hotel just reopened under new management and we had the privilege of being some of their first guests. A lot of effort has gone into remodel and updates. Even the locals were excited about and supportive of the 'new' Tongue Hotel. Great job!
This place is stunning. Thd house has all you need and local hotels for food and a drink. A great place to have as a base if your staying a few days or just an overnight like we did. You WILL be amazed by this Beautiful house and location.
The Tongue Hotel has the feel of a historic property that has been kept up and given just the right amount of modernization. We only spent one night here as we were traveling through, but I could see staying here for several day.
Beautiful old hotel in Tongue with wonderful views. Our room was quite spacious and comfortable. Good water pressure in the shower. WiFi was good. Parking is available in a lot next to the hotel. Staff were friendly and helpful!
Very comfortable with everything we needed. although weather could have been better. Able to dry waterproofs easily! Handy for local hotels and could do some walking from the door.
Lovely accommodations, nice food, friendly staff. Booking.com made a big error and overcharged me $324. Hotel management was most cooperative in helping figuring out the problem.
It is set in an outstanding location. My room had a view of Ben Hope and Castle Varrich. The hotel restaurant served high quality food and there was also a bar.
