Property is older so rooms were small but beds were comfortable. Breakfast had lots of options and it was nice not to have to leave the hotel. We found good restaurants for dinner in Breakin ( Red Skye) & Bradford (Claymore) a 10-15 min drive away. Kyleakin is a a good hour to the hikes on the Trotternish Peninsula and 30 min to Portree so you need to plan around that travel time.

The hotel is a bit tired. No smiles on reception and the breakfast start times are far too late for anyone that wants to have an early start. Food quality average, restaurant service was good.

Hotel with a GREAT View Could Use Some TLC

The hotel has a great view of the harbor which is so lovely! The hotel could be so much more charming just by simplifying the hodge-podge and sprucing it up a bit, it does have character. The rooms had some issues like very old carpet, mildew in the bathroom, the bathroom fan sounded like a 747, and the beds were not very comfortable. The manager so kindly accommodated the booking error with twin beds instead of a double bed.

We booked this hotel because unfortunately all of the hotels in Portree were sold out or $800+ per night (don’t make the same mistake - book well in advance if you’re going during peak season)! The reviews definitely scared me, it wasn’t that bad but it was also extremely overpriced for what you got. Very very outdated hotel, breakfast is terrible, rooms are not soundproof and they smell like mold. Would not stay here again. Otherwise the staff were nice and the dog was friendly (not sure why they have bad reviews for the dog lol).

Overall, this property was what we needed for the night we got onto Skye. We found the staff to be helpful and the bathroom was updated. While the room itself seemed older and was small, the furnishings were new enough and it was clean. We thought this was a good value hotel for the money especially considering the breakfast that was included which provided many options. The location was convenient as well.
