Comfortable room. Quaint cottage style building. Decor excellent 👌. Breakfast awesome both continental and Scottish breakfast. Most delicate croissants and scrambled eggs. Lamb sausages excellent. Shower excellent and amenities soap, shower gel, shampoo etc were out of this world from Scottish Highland soap company.
Service could have been better at breakfast. Seemed understaffed or staff ended up talking to some customers unendingly. Ordered coffee and orange juice , came at the end of the meal, that too the orange juice for one person.

Nice location within walking distance of town
Breakfast was ok
The mattress and pillows were so uncomfortable we couldn’t sleep, which ruined a full day of the trip.
It is way overpriced.

Staff: All were excellent. Front desk were lovely, and went out of their way to assist us in every way; they even contacted your sister hotel's restaurant (Dulce & Broke) to complain about poor treatment we had at the hands of one of its staff. We did not eat at Marmalade restaurant as it was closed, but did have several drinks at the bar on both nights. Bar staff were terrific!
As wonderful as our stay was, prices were high. Also, the gardens around the rear of the new wing need tending.Lots of weeds, grass that needs cutting, and empty flower boxes. One expects more of a hotel that is this. "nice" and charges this much.

nice rooms, good pillows, clean
The restaurant is not delicious, the service in the restaurant is mediocre. The price/quality ratio is very low.

Very clean, great location only a few mins walk to everything in Portree town centre, staff very friendly & helpful. Overall a very nice, warm & welcoming stay!
We booked extremely last minute and were desperate so I accept that the price may have been higher than usual and it was WAY more than we would usually pay, but for the price point I was expecting it to have at least a mini bar fridge with some snacks. Whilst it’s a very nice hotel, the room itself was not any nicer, bigger, or better equipped than hotel rooms a third of the price. It seems you pay a substantial premium for the location only - not necessarily a bad thing but definitely something to be aware of!

Excellent breakfast, great shower, comfy bed, dark room with good lights. Good coffee machine in the room, very comfortable and relaxing place to stay. Easy walk just down the road into the centre of Portree
The small glass shelves on the bed-sides can come loose when picking things off them - this happened twice and they fell to the ground.
A small bowl at breakfast to out the yoghurt and fruit into would be good, and a larger place for the croissant.

The rooms are amazing, very clean and comfortable.
The staff were very friendly and nice to talk to.
I don’t often feel relaxed at hotels but it’s easy to relax at your hotel.
I loved being on the ground floor too.
The only thing that could be better is to have more options on the menu in the restaurant.

Modern luxury in a convenient location on the edge of Portree, 5 minute walk to the town centre shops, pubs, restaurants and sights. Staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. Our bedroom was on the top floor the old house, with great views of the port and the mountains. The room was modern, comfortable, practical with large bed, table and chairs, sitting chair, nice touches like pod coffee machine, snacks, nice toiletries, hairdryer. Great breakfast menu, worth booking the breakfast included rate. Restaurant serves steak in the evening, worth booking for one night. Hotel has free parking. Helpful advice with maps, taxi booking, restaurant booking. Laundry service available via a local 3rd party. Thoroughly recommend
Not all rooms have bath, so specify whether you want bath or shower when you book. Full length mirror in the bedroom for hair drying would be helpful.

comfortable bed
decent hairdryer
for £229 a night I would expect a decent sized room and breakfast (breakfast was an extra £30 a day). the room was small and basic. no bedside cabinets, no fridge, small wardrobe, stains on the carpet and the curtains didn’t meet, marks on the wall and the en-suite needed an upgrade, the grouting on tiles in the shower needed a good clean. poor and not worth the price

It's was very clean, beds are very confortable. Diner, wine and breakfast were very good. People who work there are very nice and professional. Location is central and we had a nice view of the garden/water.
I would go back again. Room was big enough
7.0
Room was very good, big window with the garden view. Everything is new, some complementary snacks and water are available as well. Staff members are very friendly.
Pillows are very uncomfortable, felt like a stone:) Maybe you could request other ones but we checked in quite late. The restaurant kitchen is completely closed on Sundays and Mondays, we arrived and were not able to eat anything. But breakfast is available every day.

Beautiful rooms, kind staff and parking spots that come for free with the booking.
Breakfast needs to be booked the day before for a specific time that cannot me amended later on, which renders a vacation rather unpleasant. The price is really high for the overall experience.

Great breakfast! Receptionist was adorable. Beautiful room with a nice view on the garden. Bathroom was outstanding! (You don’t often see comments on bathrooms but here is a good one!)
We had dinner at the inn right down the road, live music every Tuesday and Thursday!
Three wait staff for breakfast, one of them was somehow not the nicest person. Sorry if we had to ask you for something, thought it was your job…
Good hotel but no charm! Where are the nice humans? A pity they’re so discrete…
