The Bosville’s restaurant Dulce & Brose is excellent; the hotel’s location, prime; and their staff most friendly and helpful. Would like to have stayed longer!

Lovely hotel with a fantastic location and view. It is an old building so be aware that the floors creak and the walls are thin. Ear plugs a must!

Great location right in town.
4.5
Great place for our stay in Skye. Loved the room, such quaint touches from them made it feel like home. Even though parking seemed to be a slight problem, there was plenty of public parking within a short walking distance. Dining options were a bit scarce and worked MUCH better with reservations than without, so plan ahead! Beautiful property in a gorgeous setting...would definitely recommend and look forward to staying here again!
4.5
This hotel was cozy and had character. Customer service was great at check in but server wasn’t very good. Sub par service at breakfast. Overall the rooms were nice and the bar and restaurant on site were a bonus. Location was great. Would stay here again and recommend.
4.5
Bosville’s location in Portree is very central and walkable to most things. It was very clean and the restaurant/bar attached was great. The staff were helpful and nice. I’d recommend this spot to anyone who can handle walking some stairs to their room.

This was a quaint and historic property. While only the carpet seemed dated, the bathroom in my room was marvelous and chic! I reserved the superior double room. They provided robes, slippers, and a various assortment of complimentary items including a complimentary candle. They're one of the few to offer hot chocolate as well as tea.
There was a blanket on the chair and a throw on the bed, which were perfect for a nap. I have a bad back so am very sensitive to beds, but this one was great! Not only was it very comfortable, but had a nice duvet (which the likes of Inverlochy Castle didn't even have!!)
At check-in I was informed there's no lift on the island, but they'd help me with my bags, which they did expeditiously with several restaurant staff offering to assist. The customer service here was amazing. Everyone is so friendly. This is the Highland hospitality that the region is well known for.
After a long day of hiking in the rain, sleet, and snow, it was a pleasure to rest here and be pampered by the ladies at dinner, where the food portions were massive! In Jan 2023, as they work to remodel, my only upgrade request is to install USB ports.
The service and amenities rivaled and surpassed some of the 5 star hotels where I stayed in during my trip.
4.5
The property and the rooms are immaculate with lots of thoughtful treats and toiletries. The tasting room and restaurant below are also not to be missed and you should definitely have a meal there at least once! Would come again.

Lovely hotel, lovely little details everywhere. And the restaurant was amazing!

I have traveled extensively in Europe and this is one of the worst hotels I’ve ever been in. For starters, there was eight parking spaces for the hotel and restaurant. No handicap availability. We had to unload luggage at the door then move our car three blocks away to public parking. The clerk at the desk sat and watched me struggle with my cane trying to get my luggage in the door. The room was badly outdated and run down. There were unpleasant faint odors of stale alcohol and urine. Mold in the shower. Bed lumpy and uncomfortable. There were no other rooms in Portree to move to. After a glorious week in England, this sad excuse for a hotel definitely left a bad first impression of Scottish hospitality and left a bad mark on an otherwise happy vacation. Do not be fooled as I was. When researching the place, the ratings, descriptions of the property and photos all looked legitimate. They were wrong.
4.5
The property was located in the heart of Portree, walkable to restaurants and shops. The property was in good condition. My only complaint was the pillows, which I personally felt to be too hard, and therefore uncomfortable. I would stay here again.
4.5
With Friendly staff. Very convenient to tour transport location, town shops/ restaurant. It’s overlooking a picturesque Portree colorful buildings. The restaurant was also very good. Room was ok . We were on the 3rd floor back side facing wall of a small cottage/ house & roof. Heard someone coughing too during our stay. Don’t bring heavy luggage and weak knees;)
4.5
Old hotel with lots of steps to rooms. Room felt a bit beat-up
Great location. Cute pub.
4.5
Hotel and staff were very nice. Bar and restaurant were good. Closing time at the bar was 1030 and we arrived late, so we missed out on a night cap. Location was right next to a small grocery store and very near many good places to eat. Parking is non-existant! There's a small pay-to-park lot a couple blocks away and a very few spots on the street, but competition for a parking spot in the area is fierce...
4.5
We loved the hotel. Rooms were clean and updated. Stylish and cute. Close to everything. Breakfast was delicious. 5 out of 5 for us!
4.5
Lovely hotel-clean and comfortable. The staff are all friendly and helpful. The bar is lively and fun.
4.5
Our sea view room overlooked the beautiful colorful row of houses that you see in the travel videos. Room was very comfortable, restaurant breakfast and dinner were excellent. The staff were very pleasant. Note: if you can not park in the handful of spots in front of the building you must park in a pay lot a few blocks away.

Chris, our waiter was very personable and made our dining experience enjoyable!

Excellent hotel. We had a large room with 2 levels for 2 adults & 2 kids. Everything from room size to bed comfort to hotel shampoo. All were excellent!

This hotel was perfect! The room was immaculate, breakfast was delicious. I wish our stay was longer, and I would definitely stay here again.

Amazing break at Bosville Portree. Very comfortable rooms with bathrobes and slippers. Toiletries luxurious. Breakfast freshly cooked. Staff so friendly and helpful.
4.5
Well appointed rooms be with extra touches. Staff couldn't be friendlier. Best location in town
4.5
We enjoyed our stay immensely. Unfortunately, the restaurant was short-staffed so we did not get to eat there. But if the breakfast is any indication the restaurant should be excellent. The cozy bar is great for hanging out. Close to everything that the city has to offer, with an easy drive to Talisker and other parts of Skye. If we are lucky enough to return we would stay here!

Lovely hotel,staff all friendly,only issue was creaky floorboards at 6 in the morning.

It was a nice hotel
4.5
The property was clean, the rooms were nice, the staff was very friendly and extremely helpful, and the breakfast was amazing. I can’t comment about dinner because we didn’t eat there, but suspect they didn’t cut any corners there. The only issue, as others have mentioned, was parking. Since the hotel doesn’t own the space in front of the hotel, anyone can park there regardless of whether they are staying at the hotel. Worst case scenario you just have to park a little further away either with street parking or at one of the nearby parking lots. Definitely recommend this hotel and would stay here again.
4.5
The room was quite lovely and spacious with a nice offering of teas and coffees ensuite. Surprisingly quiet into the late evening even though we faced the main street. Room was not easily accessible though being up a steep and narrow staircase... pack lightly! Parking was very inconvenient - There are only a small number of spots right outside, and some free spots about 2 blocks away but those filled up quickly. Overall a great experience with a few minor inconveniences.
4.5
Incredible staff who absolutely made our stay on Skye better. Excellent room.
We are planning to go back again

This town was so cute, we wish we could have stayed longer! The Bosville was very obviously a hub to this town that both people staying at the hotel and even people not staying at the hotel gravitated to. Their restaurant and bar being quite the attraction and understandably so. I would go back in a heartbeat just to have their Burger for dinner, and their croissants & oats for breakfast again-insanely delicious! The staff was also just superb, attentive, kind, and eager to help make anyone’s experience better. Cannot say enough how much we enjoyed our stay. On top of it all, the shower and bed were terrific too! Was the perfect place to stop and feel refreshed after traveling for so long.
