Warm welcome by excellent staff despite limited operating hours. Very good food both for dinner in its own restaurant and bar, and breakfast in its separate dining room. Outside seating area perfect for a drink in the sunshine with fantastic views of the yachts and boats on the estuary and beyond to Isle of Bute. No lift but adequate bedroom with good looking shower which however contained no gran bars, no soap tray, and no toiletries inside the shower cubicle. Solely a rainfall shower. Overall a very comfortable well situated hotel in a quiet location and small viiiage where required good dining facilities in house with alternatives a good walk away. Decent value and would stay again if the opportunity arises.

We had a lovely 2 night stsy at Kames Hotel. The scenery/ views are stunning and the water was cristal clear which allowed us a dip in the water. The choice at breakfast was excellent and we also had food in restaurant at night which we also would not fault. To say it us dog friendly is an understatement and would highly recommend.

The Kames hotel is in fabulous location overlooking Bute and a great base for exploring. We spent a week here and still so much to see. The hotel is lovely blend of old and modern - rooms were spotlessly clean, comfortable and well furnished. We are each night in the restaurant and enjoyed great variety of delicious meals . The owner and staff are warm, welcoming and friendly. Our dog was made welcome too!

Fantastic hotel, quiet, had a room overlooking the loch. Lovely walks in the area. Hosts were amazing, Irene and Scott plus others. Food was brilliant. We met some lovely people and made new friends. It was quite perfect for our first break away at Christmastime. Hope to be back in 2025. A big thank you to all. Ian and Caroline

I have rarely used exceptional to review a hotel but the Kames was. We travelled here from New Zealand on holiday and we only had one night but it was exceptional. The restaurant menu is top class, the range on the menu was great and seriously 10/10. I had locally free dived seared scallops from the loch, I had the slow roasted goat shank with lentils - exceptional, and we shared a lemon tart with fresh berries. I loved the Kames and I seriously recommend both the hotel and the restaurant. That is my honest feedback, Thanks, Phil.

Not worth the money

Food excellent, accommodation not worth what we paid for a couple on a two night stay. No hot water. Infact turned hotvtap on and nothing came out. Had to go down 3 flights of stairs to report. Bedroom very cramped and the bed was literally on the floor. Very basic room. Bar area and staff great.

We were marooned in the Kames Hotel when excessive rain, flooding and landslides closed all the roads out. We could not manage to get to the wedding we had come to attend (neither could the celebrant, hairdresser, makeup artiste..) but we sat in all our finery with glass in hand beside a roaring log fire in the guest sitting room and thoroughly enjoyed the Google Meet wedding of the year ! Great food, company and staff who did all they could to make our stay comfortable.

We had a lovely stay at the Kames hotel. It was really busy and buzzing but the staff still took the time to make is feel really welcome. The meal in the evening was delicious and our little dog enjoyed the treats. Would certainly visit again 😁
