"Lovely small hotel in a great location with free parking outside, Breakfast included, have the Loch Fyne Kipper. A little tatty in places but legitimate wear and tear over a no doubt busy season. Friendly and helpful staff. We stopped before getting ferry to Islay/Jura and again on way back. Also has an excellent pub next door …"

10/10 Excellent
"A really impressive building - we’ve passed by before and always hoped to stay here. The building is quirky and has so much going for it… probably several £££ million to bring it up to 4* standards, but the staff were super friendly and the room we were assigned was brilliant and had lovely views over the port. Also accommodated for our dog which was really appreciated. The restaurant served a great dinner too and the Scottish breakfast gave us a cracking start on our onward journey. Thank you !"
