Argyll and Bute Holiday Rentals

"This is a 4 star hotel however I'd give it a 2 at best. The staff were lovely and could not have been nicer, however the room was very basic. The bed was uncomfortable, the room had a kettle and very basic tea and coffee options. Also, we arrived and was told that no food would be served that night in the hotel but were given no prior warning to this. We then expected a full breakfast (included in the cost) but again, woke to a breakfast of cereal and pastries. At no point did anyone make us aware that there would be no hot food in the morning as well. Probably wouldn't recommend as we chose this hotel over other similarly priced hotels in the area, but fear I made the wrong choice."

"Staff was exceptional. Rooms beautiful, clean and food delicious. "

"Very nice hotel. Good food and great atmosphere. Rooms very large and go with the historic feel of the hotel / pub We were very lucky to be their on a Friday night as they had an amazing live singer who kept us entertained all night (along with the locals as well) "

"Staff are lovely. Fabulous view from room across the bay. Comfy bed. Great breakfast. "

"This place was beautiful and they took so very well of me! Laundry, food, entertainment, comfortable bed and clean rooms and any questions or concerns were addressed immediately! David was so wonderful!! I highly recommend. "

"Parking was fine as we got there before car park filled up. There are no shops nearby. Our room had only a drip of cold water coming out the tap. The bed was sagging and the kettle was rusty inside. Apart from that it was warm and clean. "

"Couldn't have asked for more in small town. Friendly staff clean room and it is a great location."

"Front desk staff lovely , the bar couches with the view at drinks and breakfast wow… "

"The Island Bear is very conveniently located in the cneter of Islay, a block away from ameneties, and the revered Bowmore distillery. The propert is nice, clean and lovingly mainted by the couple who also live there and are very helpful. Dunca (the owner) prepared deliciious Scotish breakfast every morning and was a reservoir of Islay knowledge. He knows every body on the Island, and everyone knows him fondly. I had great discussion with Duncan at breakfast every morning, and it was a highlight of my trip. Thank you for your hospitality."
