#1 of 3 hotels in Port Ellen
Port Ellen is beautiful. We booked our stay on Islay for our honeymoon. Port Ellen is the perfect base camp for exploring Islay especially if you travel to and from the island via boat. The whole island is easily accessible via car for hire and renting a car on Islay is pretty cheap compared to bringing a rental from the mainland but I would recommend arranging ahead of time to make sure a car is available and learning to drive a manual. Port Ellen is very small so most of what we did was outside of the town itself. If you enjoy Scotch whiskey, go to Islay. I highly recommend the Water to Whiskey tour at Laphroig but you have to book in advance. We didn't and managed to get really lucky but it was the best experience we had on the island and I'd hate for you to miss it. The tour is so much more than just the distillery.
If you're into whisky, as my wife and I are, it's simply paradise. We cycled for 3 miles along the coast and passed 3 major distilleries - Laphroaig, Lagavulin and Ardbeg. A very picturesque little town: we'll definitely be visiting again!

“The room was spacious and bright with a nice view of the Port Ellen. The bed was very comfortable. The staff was helpful and sweet.”
“A nice hotel, very close to the ferry terminal. We had a lovely sea view from the windows! The breakfast was very good. The woman serving was initially nervous to find out we were vegeterians, but she served us a satisfying meal nonetheless.”
