Their fine dining in the hotel restaurant is world class. The staff are attentive, sincere and charming without exception. The hospitality is truly impeccable. Just about the best small hotel we have ever stayed in.

Vivienne, Australia

The professional approach of all staff was excellent and they treated you as you would wish to be in all hotels. They literally bent backwards to help with any issue. The room was super excellent, with superior bathroom facilities.

“Sadly disappointing, try Flodigarry up at the north end of the island, knocks spots of Duisdale!”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Superior Double Room with Sea View
- • Stayed 2 nights
눉Food was very average and not worth the money paid which was extremely disappointing considering the advertised quality on the website. Housekeeping left a little bit to be desired, not acceptable considering the "luxury" facilities advertised.
눇Superb location with lovely views. Staff very friendly and helpful.

“Overpriced”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Classic Double Room
- • Stayed 3 nights
- • Submitted via mobile
눉I get that it's on Skye and got a 4 star rating, but it's still massively overpriced in my opinion. The walls are extremely thin, you hear every step above you and every word next to you. And don't get me started on the piping noises. Sound insulation in old buildings is possible! The wifi doesn't really work. It refused connections constantly, and if it worked it was very very slow, unbearable for today's standards. The bed was very hard, maybe suitable for a 150 kg person. The staff is friendly, but soon you realize that they just repeat their rehearsed phrases over and over again. Never encountered this in such a blatantly obvious way.
눇Warm welcome Nice Room and tastefully renovated house

“This was a very disappointing experience.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Petite Double Room
- • Stayed 1 night
눉There was overall a negative attitude. On booking in we were told that the restaurant was fully booked, on enquiring whether we could eat in the bar or the room the answer was no. Following a meeting with the manager, we ate in the restaurant. On the tasting menu, there was turbot, when enquiring if it was possible to have the turbot without the full tasting menu, the answer was no. At the end of the meal, I ordered a floater coffee. The version that appeared was so poor that I declined it and another was produced, this was not perfect but better. When I checked out, I was charged for 2 floater coffees!!!!!! At breakfast, we asked for marmalade only to be told that there was none. Overall, it was very expensive and poor value for money. No return in planned.

“A very good but expensive hotel, enjoy!”
- • Leisure trip
- • Group of friends
- • 2 rooms
- • Stayed 2 nights
눉Whilst as mentioned, this is a very good hotel with great customer service, it is also very expensive and perhaps a little too expensive for what it is. That said, we paid our bill and left happy up to the point when I noticed that on arrival we asked for Tea and Coffee and it arrived together with a biscuit each, I do not mind paying for the Tea and Coffee but then to be charged £2 per biscuit (that you didn't ask for) really sums up that they sure know how to charge but yes I would stay stay here again.
눇From the welcome to the good bye it was excellent service. The staff were genuine and friendly and the food was excellent. The rooms were both well furnished and clean, all what you would expect of this type of hotel.

눉I could not see the value in the room. It was very expensive and the value wasn't there. Every other place we have stayed (none of which have cost this much) the biscuits and complimentary water is restocked daily. I was a bit stunned that for the amount we paid these items were not restocked.
눇The room was very nice. The view was lovely as was the breakfast. The reception staff were very friendly and helpful

“Not as Special as the Price -- would not return”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Petite Double Room
- • Stayed 1 night
눉The whole place and staff just seemed to believe the hotel is better than it is. Room was very small. Shower was touchy to operate and surround did not contain the water well. Had to wait a long while to check in as desk was busy. Room was hot once we got there. 3rd floor walkup (we knew) but a long way up with bag. Restaurant was a lovely setting, but again, meals not as special as price. At dinner, I asked for a substitution of side, agreed, but then came unaltered. Had to wait for replaced meal and spouse was almost done. Service very pleasant, but service and food seemed very slow. (Seated 15-20 minutes after reservation time) Staff mixed. Everyone was pleasant, but just a bit too formal (and slow).
눇Beautiful setting. Lovely gardens. Nice small pub room to relax after arrival. Bed was very comfortable. When we arrived, had difficulty finding a place to park.

“My experience was one of being treated as if I mattered and not just as a patron.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveller
- • Classic Double or Twin Room
- • Stayed 3 nights
눉The absence of a clock with an alarm. There was also one floor with the thin walls in that noise from the rooms next door did penetrate but this was more an attitude of the other guests rather than the staff and the hotel.
눇The professional approach of all staff was excellent and they treated you as you would wish to be in all hotels. They literally bent backwards to help with any issue. The room was super excellent, with superior bathroom facilities.
