17/06/2026: This Hotel was absolutely outstanding, in a class of it's own. Seriously to die for. The rooms are beautiful set out. The restaurant with as the oak furniture was so tastefully decorated, it's own little coffee shop. The staff were a pleasure to be around. The Highlands Hotel just kept giving and giving. The food was outstanding, my favourite meal there was the mussels in a tomato and herb sauce. The bar manager Tuffer (Christopher) was superb add to to the organisation, a very knowledgeable chap who knows how to run a bar with ease. I would visit the Highlands in a heartbeat and will be going again soon, very soon. Glenties the town is a biscuit tin town. Idyllic with the most beautiful views that stop you in your tracks to take it all in. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

08/06/2026: I honestly cannot recommend the Highlands Hotel in Glenties highly enough. From the moment we arrived until the day we left, every single member of staff made us feel genuinely welcome and valued. The level of hospitality we received was outstanding and truly set this hotel apart. The entire team deserves recognition! From the restaurant and café staff, to the bar staff, housekeeping team, and front desk reception. Every interaction was met with warm smiles, friendliness, and a willingness to help in any way possible. It is rare to find a hotel where every department consistently delivers such excellent service, but the Highlands Hotel does exactly that. The hotel itself was immaculate throughout our stay. Everything was spotlessly clean, fresh, and extremely well maintained. Our room was comfortable and beautifully presented, and we especially appreciated the thoughtful touch of fresh water being provided every single day. What really made our stay special was how much the staff went above and beyond to ensure we had the best possible experience. Whether it was helping us arrange taxis, providing local recommendations, answering questions, or simply taking the time to chat and make us feel at home, nothing ever seemed like too much trouble. Their genuine care and attention to guests is something you don’t come across often. A very special mention must go to Paul, who consistently went above and beyond for us throughout our stay. His professionalism, kindness, and dedication to ensuring guests have a fantastic experience did not go unnoticed. He is a real credit to the hotel and played a huge part in making our visit so memorable. The Highlands Hotel perfectly combines excellent accommodation with outstanding customer service. It felt less like staying in a hotel and more like being welcomed into a home. Thanks to the incredible team, our stay in Glenties was unforgettable. Without a doubt, when we return to Glenties next year, we will be staying here. Thank you to everyone for such a wonderful experience. Highly recommended and thoroughly deserving of a 10/10 rating.
