Logan Home, hotel in Stornoway

Logan Home in Stornoway provides accommodations with free Wifi, a 19-minute walk from Tràigh Thunga Beach, 17 miles from Callanish Standing Stones, and a 10-minute walk from Museum Nan Eilean.

Firstly, Maria (the host) was exceptionally gracious. She offered to accommodate us in the event our ferry was canceled due to weather. She seems like a lovely, caring person. The apartment was beautifully appointed and spotlessly clean. The location was perfect: a very short walk to downtown.

Lews Castle, hotel in Stornoway

Lews Castle offers accommodations in Stornoway, 1.3 miles from Tràigh Thunga Beach and 16 miles from Callanish Standing Stones. This apartment features free private parking, an elevator, and free...

Everything from the checking in process as we arrived early throughout the entire stay. Nothing was too much bother to any of the staff. The cafe is excellent but I wish it was open 7 days a week and also in the evening for some light meals if you don't fancy cooking in the kitchen. Our apartment was phenomenal and we have already booked for 2 further stays. Would be good if more than 1 apartment was dog friendly as we want to come in April but can't as the 1 apartment is already being used. I think if you are paying a cleaning fee, then all of the apartments should be pet friendly. This is a gem of a place and would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone - so much better than staying in a hotel.

    Small historic town, that is the ideal for travelling to Harris. There are a few historic sites to see but some of them were not open when we visited. Sunday very quiet with nothing open or available to do. Great place to go for a relaxing retreat.

    The shops in Stornoway were super with a good range of things to choose from. We visited the butcher, the charity shops, the deli, the new Co-op supermarket, tweed shops, Tourist Information and Taigh Ceilidh where we received a very warm welcome.

    We were very lucky with the weather given the time of year. Stunning beaches and very interesting historical sites. Enjoyed eating out and had excellent meals. Really helpful information from Jessica in the tourism centre and pleasant friendly locals who were keen to share their knowledge of the islands

    the hotel is fine the staff are good prices a bit high but that is standard for the island. my only problem is a slight health issue and with the very steep stairs and the rooms all upstairs i found this a problem but the hotel is ok.

    Don't bother with Stornoway itself ( apart from the castle).

    Don't bother with Stornoway itself ( apart from the castle). The shopping is poor and it's very difficult to eat out on a Sunday or Monday. Most restaurants are closed! SO BOOK if you can !( We don't think they want to encourage tourists!) Do go to the Black House village and the standing stones. Really interesting. We were looking for wildlife but it was minimal. We were only there 2 full days but wished we were back on Uist!!

    A lovely cosy cottage, warm and welcoming with lovely extras such as fruit, homemade biscuits, milk in the fridge and chocolates by the beds. Angus and his family were perfect hosts as well as their two delightful labradors. Ample supply of logs and coal helped to add warmth inside whilst the wind howled and the rain fell outside! Easy access to Stornoway as well as a great base to explore the island as well as visit my friend’s brother in Stornoway. Thank you for a wonderful week and we will definitely return.

    The small room represented a prison. Small window looking onto other walls and an adjacent noisy ventilation duct. The hygiene of the room left a lot to be desired and this is a quiet time of year so no excuses. A selection of pubic hairs were available from different parts of the bathroom. Location was excellent but let down by a dirty hotel that was obvious from walking through the dirty front doors. An utter disappointment and I won’t be back.

    A comfortable. clean and beautiful property. It was warm and cosy and had everything we needed. Evelyn went over and beyond to make sure that we had enough information regarding parking, shops, places to visit. The beds were also very comfortable and clean. The property had everything a family would need, including washing machine, dryer, hairdryer, towels ect. I would recommend this property to anyone visiting Stornoway.

    Very clean, comfortable, very good breakfast, good location( 10 min from Stornoway center). We were impressed how kind was the host. She gave us a lot of information about the island, she got up early in the morning( 5 a.m) to prepare us breakfast as we had our ferry by that time, she was always smiling and very attentive. We felt very well treated and we strongly recommend this accommodation.

    Good location with Harbour and Castle view. Reception staff welcoming and helpful as were the restaurant staff. Food was excellent if a little pricey but sufficient choices available to avoid ‘splashing out’. Room was clean and comfortable and in keeping with this period hotel. Good breakfast menu and willingness to adjust individual choices if required.

    The breakfast was excellent, and the hospitality was warm and generous (lovely homemade scones and jam). It was great to have a comfortable guest lounge with small fridge and a range of books. Everywhere I needed to get to in Stornoway was within 5-10 minutes walk. And the weather was amazing!
