The property is a bit dated. The carpet on stairway is frayed and should be replaced. The bedroom was tiny. The bed was comfortable. The staff seemed uninterested in checking me into the hotel, and I had wait and ask several times for assistance. Same with checkout. The restaurant’s food was good, esp the local seafood.

Room was nice, staff were very nice. We ate in the dining room the first night. The food was very tasty but quantities were very small and extremely expensive for the tiny amount provided. Full breakfast was very big and good. We had waffles on day two which was disappointingly small. Location of the hotel was lovely.

Nearly £500 a night, but a complete lack of hospitality

We stayed for one night at Hotel Eilean Iarmain, paying £496.57 for our suite and breakfast. While the setting is beautiful, the service and management response were completely unacceptable for a hotel at this luxury price point.
At dinner (which was not included in the room rate), my wife's bread for her bouillabaisse was served burnt. By the time it was replaced she had finished the dish, had she waited it would have gone completely cold. We raised it with the waitress, but no gesture of goodwill was offered. The real disappointment, however, was at checkout. When I brought this up to the manager, expecting a professional apology or a small deduction from the bill, he dismissively told me I \"have to understand the kitchen was busy.\"
When you are paying nearly £500 a night, a busy kitchen is not the guest's problem; it is a management issue. The complete lack of accountability or goodwill over a spoiled dining experience showed very poor hospitality standards. Extremely disappointing.

The popularity of the Isle of Skye has resulted in inflated prices for accommodations. This hotel is really an oversized B&B, but merits no more than 3.5 stars as a hotel. At check-in no offer of help was made to carry luggage up the threadworn stairs to the room. At dinner, an extra place setting was left on the table throughout the meal. The bar/pub was authentic and more appropriate for an establishment of this size.

We didn't really know what expect and it turned out be a very pleasant surprise. The hotel is compact yet there is plenty of room in the fire heated large and small sitting rooms. There's a wee conservatory as well with lovely views. The breakfast room was ample fir the guests. Restaurant was closed for winter but the Àn Praban bar served lovely food, emphasis on seafood/fish/ and local beef etc., with specials roughly every couple of days.
Drinks selection was great with a large selection of beers. There is a concentration of local spirits and other liquers in the shop which are made on site. All that we tried was delicious. There's also an interesting and varied wine selection.

The staff, many of whom are local, with some Gaelic speakers amongst them were simply excellent. They were lovely people, happy, welcoming, pleasant and very helpful from initial reception to setting the setting the fires, through to the bar and serving food.

We have not stayed in a hotel like before. We even extended our stay a couple of nights.

The positive aspects of this review is a genuine opinikn of our stay at Eilean Iarnain.

We shall be returning.

This is a really nice hotel, obviously aided by the beautiful location.
The food in the evening and at breakfast is of a good quality, with many locally sourced choices on the menu. The mussels were awesome.

Staff were all great, very approachable and welcoming.

The only thing which detracted from the quality of the hotel was the damp in my room (14) which meant that the curtains were mouldy - which is obviously a bit off-putting.

its really a terrible experence to order this hotel.

we book two twin bed rooms for two families, after arrival we realize accorind to the hotel, only two person are allowed to stay in the room, even kids less than 12 is the same.

Then we discussed with the reception to accomodate addtional one 9-year-old kid, the answer is no; or we add money to add bed, the answer is no etc. its 10pm at night, and in the island we could not find any hotel room available.

Exceptional place to stay

We absolutely loved staying at Eilean Iarmain. The property is gorgeous with truly the most beautiful views. It is peaceful and away from distractions, one can just come and stay here without going anywhere else and still feel the beauty of the Isle of Skye. The area has wonderful restaurants but our favorite meals were here so I would suggest just having your dinners here after a long day of driving about the Isle. There is the coziest of pubs here with the same great food and drinks- it's very popular so get there earlier than later. the boutiques next door were also beautiful and we bought some beautiful Scottish coat and scarfs here. We had a family suite ( upstairs and down) and the views from every window was gorgeous! last ut not least, the service was so wonderful, everyone we met was so nice. I dream about this place and hope to return some day.

I am so glad we found this place. It was exactly as portrayed: an historic (and idiosyncratic) small inn/hotel; not fancy, very straightforward; on the water in a wonderful location; a great kitchen punching way above its weight. But the best part was its staff. Warm, genuine. I felt cared about by every staff member I interacted with. Kudos.

We arrived very late - our room types were standard double, but we clearly had the ones no one else wanted. I will preface that the location was amazing, the staff great with their communication and the beds comfortable. But it was old, the carpet was dirty and the bathroom was tiny. It was not worth the money for a room of the standard we given. The breakfast was ok, the bacon burned and the coffee machine wasn’t on, I was told they couldn’t flick the switch and turn it on. If it wasn’t over $300 a night - then this would be something to overlook. But at over $300, they need to step it up a little.

Great little place for a short stay. Staff very friendly and amenable. Room clean if a little small, or cosy if you prefer! Stunning location and near to main road.
Disappointing dining options, several choices not available as associated bar serving food opens early.

From the arrival, staff was really friendly and attentive, giving all information about the facilities. The room with private bathroom was quite nice, clean and amazingly quiet, which impressed us most. Really nice to rest and wind down.
Breakfast was nice, the pub excellent, really nice to interact with others. External tables and seats for enjoying the sun and the bay also brought a nice sense of nature in the surroundings.
An excellent choice in Skye!

Charming hotel with superb staff

The staff at Eileen Iarmain went out of their way to be helpful and friendly and made our stay very enjoyable. The rooms are somewhat small but have everything you need. We stayed during a heat wave and the only thing we had to ask for was a fan. Other than that, the staff really went above and beyond to make sure that our stay was comfortable and enjoyable.

Lovely hotel in a beautiful location.

This is a wonderful hotel and was a highlight of our trip to Scotland. The hotel is lovely and so welcoming. The staff are over and above and we had fun chatting with them whether in the pub, restaurant or front office. We had a couple of early starts so missed the breakfast timing so instead they made us a great picnic lunch to take on our days out exploring. Dinner was fabulous. Our room had an incredible view and lots of space to enjoy a couple of days. Thoroughly recommend this wonderful hotel.

We had an amazing experience at Eilean Iarmain. My daughter and I were only there for one night as a place to sleep and shower before checking out the Isle of Skye. We arrived ten minutes before the kitchen closed, and they offered to make us something to eat before the chef left for the night. The hotel and room itself were beautiful and clean. The views from the hotel were amazing. In a world where customer service is a thing of the past, the employees at Eilean Iarmain were exceptional. They were very concerned with our comfort and making sure we had everything we needed. Would definitely recommend staying here, and will do exactly that on my next visit to Skye!

Beautiful location on the south part of Skye. Very friendly and helpful staff. Made us feel very welcome and looked after. We enjoyed a wee whisky tasting of their own whisky’s and got to play a little music in the pub for the staff after work. Very lovely experience! Close to Armidale castle and museum - very good museum to learn some history of area and people. Would love to go back.

A hidden gem of a hotel

This is a gem of a hotel, tucked away off the main road overlooking a small harbour and next to a small shop selling tweeds etc, a gin distillery and a building used as an art gallery. All very traditional styled buildings and very tranquil. Very friendly staff, spotless room with a very comfortable bed, a complimentary sample bottle of their gin or whisky…they have their own too…was very welcome.
Comfortable lounge with a warm traditional feel yet bright and airy. Alongside and part of the hotel is a lovely traditional bar, great selection of whiskies and good food.
Food at the hotel is very seafood based, all locally sourced and very fresh. A big bonus to the hotel stay. Breakfast is equally good with a selection of dishes. Definitely a hotel to come back to.

The check in was extremely smooth. You were given a miniature of their own whisky at check in which was a very nice touch. The rooms were well maintained. The service, in the hotel, bar and dining rooms was efficient and friendly.

The food was very tasty and well presented (and very good sized portions}. It was maybe slightly dearer than you would expect for bar food, but the quality/quantity made up for that,

There were open fires in both the bar and the residents' lounge which made them very appealing and comfortable.

The bar had a good selection of beers (including Skye Gold on tap) as well as a large number of spirits, including their own whiskies and gins.

The only strange thing was there were no televisions in the hotel (either the bedrooms or the residents' lounge), whilst watching television while on holiday is not high on the list of priorities in a place like Skye the weather forecast can be important. However the wifi coverage was very good throughout the hotel/bar and therefore it was easy to keep up to date with potential weather changes.

All in all a very good place to stay.

Phil and Maria's Scottish Road Trip

A charming welcoming cosy hotel. We had a beautiful room with all the lovely touches you would wish to see including shortbread. We had a beautiful evening meal, I had salmon with fresh vegetables and Maria had Fish a Chips, the fish the size of a whale.
A beautiful breakfast next morning Porridge followed by a full Scottish consisting of Potato scones and haggis pudding. A lovely touch from the staff, Maria asked for a banana with her porridge, the lovely lady serving us popped along to get one from her home, as they did not have one on site.
An example of the extra lengths they go to here to accommodate your every need.
The accommodation is situated at the tip of a beautiful peninsula with breathtaking views across the Isle of Skye.
