This hotel was amazing. We’ve stayed 8 nights during our England trip this time and this hotel was only 1 night. We should have stayed there more. The 1 night was the best stay of our trip. We will visit Portree again and definitely stay there again. Fantastic breakfast, clean and beautiful room. Very safisfied.

Excellent customer service and breakfast, but small room space if considering the price you pay for.
4.6
Great hotel, nice and quiet rooms!

My husband and I stayed at th Marmalade in Portree for two nights. The room was comfortable. We even got a cute little gift from the staff because I mentioned it was our 10 year anniversary! Nice touch!
4.6
Overall very good but... The breakfast was amazingly good but we ate elsewhere in the evening because the evening menu was very poor for vegetarians. Also, the window in our room did not shut fully which made it a bit noisy as we were above the kitchen extractors. The staff were attentive so have probably fixed it now.
4.6
It's nice and quiet. The staff was very friendly and gave recommendations on wait to do on Isle of Skye. The rooms were large and peaceful. You'll enjoy your stay here.
4.6
Room was okay, clean, and with all comfort ( nespresso machine!).
Breakfast was very well presented and varied.
Nice drink list.
Unfortunately, we couldn't have dinner for two consecutive days because the hotel doesn't reserve tables for its guests.
No one helped us with our luggage: two floors of stairs!
The check-in was chaotic and poorly managed: despite having paid everything in advance, without any preliminary check, the clerk handed us the card reader to pay again!
Even just asking or verifying first would have been a courteous gesture.

A lovely, clean, well situated property. A wonderful, hard working staff. I highly recommend.

Pleasant stay
4.6
Our stay was ok but no better than that. Hotel is grossly overpriced for the facilities it has. Staff were nice and location is good. Restaurant menu is quite limited. Room was okay but you expect better at this price
4.6
Such a lovely setting just a few minutes from the town center
4.6
The restaurant staff was great!
4.6
The hotel was so cozy and comfortable. Very nicely decorated and great beds and chairs in the rooms. Everything was spotless. The staff were really accommodating despite all of our off the wall requests. So much care is put into the food, it would fit in easily with any upscale New York City cafe.
4.6
We were so excited to stay at The Marmalade Hotel. However, this hotel misses the mark in a few categories:
We were left to carry our luggage up the stairs (no elevator).
The staff sort of half-heartedly answers questions about area restaurants/sights.
Our room's thermostat was not working properly and we roasted on the first night. We tried getting help, but the night shift woman didn't know how the control worked. The next day we found out that the receptionist needed to turn our HVAC system on with a switch behind the front desk! There was not an apology for our hot, sleepless night. An apology would've gone a long way.
4.6
This property is grossly overpriced. It is no more than an motel but we pay 7 star hotel prices.
Not worth the costs and poor value
4.6
At check in, I was asked to pay for the stay despite already having prepaid through Expedia. I was refunded promptly once I showed the confirmation email. The hotel room itself is nice and quiet. We stayed in hoping for room service but it was not being offered. Two employees told us they are short staffed and don’t normally work the positions they were in, hence all the confusion. The rate is quite high for the lack of service and amenities you get at the hotel. Next time, I’ll look for a hotel for on the water instead.
4.6
Loved the area. Walkable, plenty of stores and restaurants. The best restaurants book pretty quick so if you are interested in one, ensure to make reservations ahead of time. Lovely town
4.6
The Marmalade staff went above and beyond in helping us with our dining choices even going to the restaurant to confirm our reservations. The breakfast was delicious. Would definitely stay here again.
4.6
Loved Portree and this hotel. Our only suggestion would be to book dining reservations in advance. We BARELY got in for dinner after trying 5-6 restaurants as a walk-up. And this was early in the season (3rd week of April). The brunch at the hotel is great, but I'd also book that early if you want an early start out on the trails.
4.6
Delightful environment; top class room; excellent food
4.6
Was not able to make it since my daughter fell ill and we had to leave the country. They would not refund the huge amount of money we paid for two nights. Very upsetting to say the least. Definitely will not stay there again on our next trip out.
4.6
We made Portree our home base for 3 nights on Skye. The Marmalade was the perfect spot! Spacious room, beautiful views and friendly staff. They have a restaurant on site and the rooms are stocked with coffee, tea, biscuits and local soap products.
4.6
The hotel is clean and convenient, all in a standard modern style. I usually prefer old school with lots of character, but this was a last minute emergency stop. And what a great choice! The staff were absolutely wonderful - really kind and helpful. We booked late in the evening because a road closure precluded our getting back to our hotel on the mainland. The staff graciously offered us toothbrushes and went out of their way to find a restaurant that could accommodate us at the late hour. So welcoming
4.6
All of the staff at this property were lovely. They were all helpful and attentive.
Susanne, at the front desk is a gem. She was friendly, helpful and just so friendly. She had great recommendations for restaurants outside of Portree and was so sweet to our son.
4.6
Great property, staff was wonderful it even smelled gorgeous!
The food was OUTSTANDING in the restaurant.
4.6
The rooms itself were great with spacious bathrooms. The staff was uber friendly and knew us / which room we were staying throughout the hotel. The restaurant there is fabulous, we ate both dinner and breakfast and immensely enjoyed both. Would NOT hesitate to stay here again! Such a pleasure in Portree!
4.6
High quality accommodation in a quiet area only five minutes walk from the centre of Portree

Beautiful property but the stand out was the staff. Incredibly helpful and attentive. Full of local knowledge and recommendations and nothing was ever too much bother.
4.6
Such a wonderful place! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and getting away to Skye! Would absolutely stay there again
4.6
Lovely. Nice check in staff. Room was very comfortable. Great linens, had the best sleep. Bathroom and amenities were amazing. A must stay if you visit Portree. I checked the other options as we strolled thru town just curious-nothing close to this! Don’t hesitate to book here!
4.6
Stayed one night during a Highland road trip - lovely hotel and an excellent dinner. Sadly we left before breakfast, but really hope to be back someday soon !
4.6
Great location to walk into Portree in 5 minutes. Relatively central to drive to other areas and sites in Isle of Skye. All of the staff where very warm and personable
4.6
Excellent hotel, beautiful views from the rooms and very attentive staff. Great bathroom and also ate breakfast here which was wonderful. Only a 5 minute walk into the centre also - would definitely recommend.

4.6
We so enjoyed our visit here. We stayed for 2 days. What a lovely hotel. Great restaurant - we had dinner and breakfast here. Options were delicious. Our initial reception person was new and did not know the area but everyone else was informative and helpful. This was a great location to tour Skye and an easy walk into town. All the extras were appreciated. The view from our window was so pretty and the bed was comfortable. Nice coffee/tea options too. We recommend and want to come back!
