Excellent stay.  Enjoyed food in the evening in the pub and in the restaurant and excellent breakfasts.  Jamie was both helpful and charming on the day we were leaving; I am sure she was both those things on other days too but I did not have the pleasure of interacting with her then.  Our room was quite large, everything worked and it had good heat and views.  I would be glad to stay here again.

Would be glad to stay again.

I have never had experienced such a warm and friendly staff at any hotel before. I wish we had more time to stay at this lovely quaint location, but had to go on to our next stop. Such a wonderful place to go I highly recommend. 

Nicest staff

Stayed at the Benleva after hiking Ben Nevis earlier in the day. We were hoping for a long hot shower, a good meal and a comfy bed. Happy to report all 3 were available. We were checked in by Michael who was lovely and really couldn't have been more helpful. Our room was enormous and comfortable, in fact it was so big it could have done with just one more light as it was quite dark with the curtains closed. We ate dinner in the bar rather than the restaurant to soak up the atmosphere. I had the black pudding and haggis bon bons which were delicious. The bar was open late and by 10pm was filled with locals, I was a bit concerned that our sleep would be disturbed due to their late licence on a Saturday night, but we didn't hear a peep once back in our room and I slept like a log all night. Breakfast was enormous and tasty, we had a lovely chat with Michael's mum who was helping out serving and she recommended a few things to do in the village before we headed home. If we are ever back in the area I would definitely stay here again. Thank you  we had a great time.

Friendly hotel with a local flavour

We where here in Oct 2022 and returned again Feb 2023 for another stay. From the moment we arrive my 14yr old daughter and myself are made to feel extremely welcome from the lovely hotel staff, and also from the friendly locals.
so much so we wished we can stay longer each time we have visited . The hotel itself offers a great base for exploring the loch Ness area and provides tasty food for when you return from exploring. Theres a pool table, darts board and juke box in the bar which is an added bonus, to keep my teenager entertained😊  while i relax with a wee drink from the well stocked bar. The room was modern, clean and spacious, and the beds were comfy. 
Better not forget the tasty breakfast, that sets us up for our trip back home . Would definitely return here again.

Hidden treasure.

Great hotel, owner can't help you enough, quiet location, clean, excellent whiskey selection in the bar, old fashioned hospitality it was a real pleasure to visit and it's on our list for return visits

Very friendly

Stayed three nights, myself and teen son.  Loved having drinks in the bar, playing the jukebox, playing pool. People from all over the world eating, drinking, staying here, as well as locals. 
We adventured all day and made dinner reservation for 7 pm each night. Our food was delicious and they were able to accommodate my son’s tree nut allergy.
All the staff were delightful and helpful in every way, from making a delicious breakfast that is included with the price of your stay ( thank you lovely lady that made that exquisite eggs Benedict- I enjoyed visiting with you!) to telling us how to access local attractions and sharing a bit about Scotland’s history!
We stayed in Room 11, and you have to take the stairs up. But you get a beautiful breeze in the open window each night. No screen- but no insect troubles.
The bathroom was modern and nicer than either of our Edinburgh hotels.
The inn is maybe 2-4 miles from Loch Ness, maybe 12 miles from Inverness- tons of things to do nearby!
We just can’t speak highly enough about the staff, our food and drinks, and our time spent here. We will always remember it. Would highly recommend!

Best part of our Scotland trip!

Our last night staying in Drumnadrochit and popped over for dinner. Walking into the bar area, the staff immediately made us welcome. It's a cosy bar but we never felt like we were packed in like sardines. The menu was a little limited but there was something for everyone. OH had the haddock and I had the garlic chicken special. It arrived piping hot within 10-15 minutes of ordering. I wish I could show you what it looked like but it was too nice and vanished from our plates within 10 minutes 😋 Good value for money, good variety of refreshments on offer and I loved the Starproman glass.

We plan to come back to this area next year, and if we do, will definitely be coming back to The Benleva for food.

Totally recommended.

Fantastic food - we'll be back!

Benleva Hotel was wonderful. Great service and food. The room was spacious and the bathroom has been updated recently.  Pub was excellent after a week of walking. The staff was so friendly.  If you are doing the Great Glen Way I would recommend it.


Great Glen Way- Drumnadrochit

Benleva is a traditional rustic pub, bar area in particular is quite tough and ready but friendly service and we’ll priced drinks. The food was very good, enormous portions and the chef even made one of the dishes vegetarian specially for me.

Good food in a friendly atmosphere

Cute historic building, great home base to access Loch Ness. The bed was comfortable and the room was clean and spacious. Great water pressure in the shower.

The staff were friendly but seemed a little harried— maybe a little short-staffed? It didn’t impact our stay.
