Nice accomodations and customer service but wish there was an elevator for our large suitcases.
Pros:

The room was nice and large, with amenities such as bottled water, chocolates, side tables, and comfortable bedding. The breakfast was nice (made to order), and the service was good. The environment was very inviting.

Cons:

There was no elevator, so we had to carry our bags up and down the stairs. However, there was someone there to help upon request. They ran out of towels during our stay.

All good, would recommend
Pros:

Easy booked, great location, very clean, comfy bed and fantastic breakfast. Staff helpful, late booking but still managed a late checkout no problem.

Cons:

Thought the cost when booked at 7pm for that night could be reduced when hotel not nearly full.

Portree guter Ausgangspunkt- Hotelpreis massiv zu teuer!
Pros:

Sehr schönes Zimmer und Bad, sauber alles okay. Die Herren im Service in den beiden Restaurants waren sehr freundlich und aufmerksam.

Cons:

Personal (vorallem Damen) dürfte freundlicher sein. Bei den meisten jungen Damen hat leider der Charme und die Freundlichkeit gefehlt. Frühstück für den Preis etwas dürftig! Essen im Restaurant (Marmalade und Dulse gut)

Horrible service
Pros:

Me and my friend got violently sick a few days before our trip and called to cancel. I asked if it was possible to get a refund, to which they said yes, as long as we contact the agent we went through to book them. I did that and the agent came back with that they refused the refund. I called them again regarding this and they didn’t have time to assist me and blew me off. Had we known they would have refused us, we could have given the stay to family or friends, since it was already paid for. Very dissappointing and unprofessional. We were thinking of coming to Portree some other time, but I know for certain that we won’t be using this hotel anymore.

An Amazing Stay!
Pros:

An absolutely fantastic stay! From the moment we arrived we had an amazing time
Stayed 3 nights with my wife to celebrate her birthday, the room we had was lovely and clean with a super comfy bed and stunning views.
We had breakfast each day and evening meal in the hotel twice, delicious. So well cooked and beautifully presented.
A mention to the staff, every team member was so friendly and helpful, it really made a difference to our stay. Special thanks to Chloe and Rachel who were great in the restaurant, and to Abi who sorted a couple of requests in our room.
Without doubt we would stay again and have already recommended this hotel to others .
Thanks for making the weekend so special for us both

Gorgeous stay on the Isle of Skye
Pros:

Room had a lovely view of the garden and the harbor in the distance. Quiet, clean, cozy, and comfortable, with a good restaurant on site for breakfast and dinner and other spa-like amenities. On site parking and a fairly central location on Skye made daytripping easy. 10 minute walk to the center of Portree for shops and restaurants.

Unbelievably overpriced. Average at best.
Pros:

Dining room staff worked their arse off.

Cons:

No attention to detail. Nobody seems to care. Rubbish blowing around. Dirty tables. Seriously understaffed.
