Lovely gem by the canal
Loved this little gem and will definitely return. Great view looking over the bridge and beautiful river (Neptune room).
Big comfy bed, huge bathtub and nicely decorated. Tea/Coffee bar provided with lovely biscuits.

Great location and very clean and comfortable. Everything was new, but soundproofing could be better. Firedoors were also noisy and vibrated throughout the room

Lovely place to stay
It's perfectly positioned in the middle of the village and right next to the canal. The room was modern, clean and everything we needed.

We stayed one night here, passing through to Inverness and then to Skye. The stay was comfortable and clean and very interesting as we got to watch a boat go through the locks.
we had a room of 4 bunks, which was perfectly fine. The breakfast at the canal center was good and the area surrounding the town was lovely to explore.

I have been traveling for many years, and I don't think I've ever been as comfortable in a hotel room before. Everything was clean, comfortable, quiet and I felt very safe. Traveling with my family is not easy in Scotland, this was fantastic. We had a full bed and two twin bunks. No cots or rollouts. Local meals were amazing. And the canal was super cool. Highly recommended.

Great location and a comfortable room. Does need to address the tap the continually runs and the shower door that won’t close tightly.
But overall, it was a great stay.

Property was clean and in a nice location. Biggest issues:
1. We booked a King bed and it was only a queen.
2. They only provided us with one towel for 2 people
3. There was no way to reach anyone after 5pm. Check in wasn’t even allowed until 430pm.
Messaged the property 4 days ago and still no response.

The property was clean check in instructions very clear. The only issue we had is a large group booked all the other rooms and gathered in the hallway outside our door and loudly talked very early. Also the walls are very thin so people leaving or checking in will almost sound like they are in your room.

We stayed one night at Lock Chambers on our way to Inverness. The room was very clean and tidy and check in was straight forward using the code and lockbox. We were able to leave our suitcases in the cafe next door before the check in time which was handy. The room was a little stuffy but there was a fan which helped a bit.
