Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is conveniently located with easy access to explore Stornoway. The rooms were uncomfortably hot at times and not always serviced promptly. The food service was friendly and accommodating despite limited staff presence. The location offers a good walking distance to major attractions but noise disruptions were noted. The dining experience had a good menu selection but cleanliness could be improved.
The hotel had comfortable and pleasant rooms, although some were too warm with an oversight of a service area and a view over a flat-roofed extension. The service was extremely friendly and helpful, making the stay enjoyable. The location was good, though a bit noisy at times. The dining experience was good with a variety of choices. Overall, a hotel of a high standard with welcoming service.
The hotel offers comfortable and pleasant rooms, with friendly and helpful service, in a location close to the town center. While dining had some great options, the noise level outside could be bothersome at times.
The hotel had slightly tired rooms, but they were still very clean and comfortable. The positive and pleasant attitude of the staff made up for any slight shortfalls in decor. The rooms were large, comfortable, and fit for purpose. I particularly enjoyed the shortbread provided.
