Die Zimmer sind einfach, aber komfortabel. Die Bettwäsche ist angenehm. Leider Blick auf eine Baustelle und einen Parkplatz, aber der Ausblick vom Restaurant ist grandios. Abends bietet das Restaurant die Möglichkeit, eine angenehme Zeit zu verbringen. Das Frühstück wäre kontinental und Sie können andere Gerichte bestellen.

Im Badezimmer sollte es mehr Möglichkeiten zum Abstellen von Handtüchern, Haken oder Handtuchhaltern geben.
Was mich am meisten gestört hat, war meiner Meinung nach der Manager, der mürrisch war und dann alle lächelte.
Der von ihm durchgeführte Check-in war gut, aber mit seiner unangenehmen Einstellung fühlen wir uns nicht wohl.
Während des Abendessens folgte er einer Kellnerin, die sehr gut arbeitete, besser als er, und stresste sie so sehr, dass sie fast weinte. Die Kellnerin war freundlich und gab ihr Bestes, trotz des Drucks, den der Manager meiner Meinung nach ausübte. Dies wiederholte sich noch einmal während des Frühstück. Die Kellnerin war wieder anwesend und alles war in Ordnung, bis der Manager kam und der Stress erneut begann. Es tut mir leid, dass ich es hier schreiben musste, so wie ich einen Brief an das Hotel geschickt habe, um unsere Unzufriedenheit zu erklären. Bitte ändern Sie außerdem das Präsentationsfoto Ihres Hotels, das nicht mehr der Beschreibung entspricht

Being renovated
It is not in the class it pretends to be. It is a constriction site for the price of five star hotel. Apart from renovation issues (workers onsite, rubbish, stained walls and carpets) it is also not on the comfort level it must be.
Mountain View” is a caravan park view
No drinking water arrangements is the room
Towels rail, hangers for a single set only
Doors and windows do not lock properly
No closed wardrobe
Shower already stained with lime
Duct tape patch on the ceiling
Bad WiFi

Every aspect of our two-night stay in the hotel was extremely enjoyable,
The parking is a little restrcted but on arrival the manager ensured that we were given a close and convenient disabled ( which we had not specified or requested ) parking spot.

La situació és molt bona, a les portes de l'illa d'Sky. El personal molt amable. L'habitació acollidora, neta i còmode. Les instal·lacions en general estan molt bé. El millor de tot l'esmorzar. Hi havia un bufet amb molta varietat i a més podies escollir un plat calent. Recomanem molt aquest hotel a qualsevol persona que vulgui visitar l'illa d'Sky.

L'accueil dans ce charmant hôtel est très chaleureux. Notre chambre était spacieuse et l'équipement adapté. Les lits étaient confortables.
Le petit déjeuner est délicieux et convient à tous les gouts sucrés comme salés. Mention spéciale aux délicieuses viennoiseries!
Avoir la possibilité de manger dans le restaurant pour le diner du soir est très pratique et en plus il est très bon.
L'emplacement à 5 min en voiture de l'ile de Skye est top.
Je recommande +++

Service was great, food fresh & hot with a reasonable selection for dinner.
Breakfast was very good. Both dining room & breakfast room were very good with superb view of the loch beyond.
Car parking was quite limited although this did not affect us

La ubicación es estratégica para llegar al castillo que queríamos visitar, muy cómoda la habitación pero si llegas después de las 9 pm no hay nada para cenar ni en el hotel, ni en algún lugar cercano.

The high pressure in the shower was fantastic! Breakfast was good with plenty of food to eat.
I wish our patio doors opened to let in fresh air and allow easy access to unload the vehicle. Room 31

This hotel is nowhere close to a 4star hotel as it hardly provides amenities of a 2star hotel.

Lovely, quiet location. Spacious rooms with lovely view. Staff were very attentive and helpful. Very friendly welcome. Lots of selection for breakfast, a full continental buffet and options for hot food if you’d like. Dinner menu is small but I feel it still caters for everyone.
I had to slam my room door in order to get it to lock - not a problem for me but I worried about waking people!

The location is remote but beautiful. We stayed here because it was close to Eilean Donan knowing there really wasn’t much in the area. That being said, the gentleman who runs the hotel is great! He pretty much does it all and was very nice. the room was comfortable and we woke up with a lovely view of the loch. The food in the restaurant is great as well!
