Portree Chalets

"Balmacara Hotel was one of the best properties we stayed at in Scotland. Wish we could have stayed longer than our 2 nights because our view was AMAZING! We had a breathtaking view of Loch Alsh, the mountains around it, and a very clean, spacious room. The staff was very friendly, and so helpful even assisting with our luggage. We were able to rest up after our scenic trip from Inverness to Kyle, then had a fantastic meal downstairs in their restaurant, with another beautiful view of the Loch and mountains. We enjoyed the Scottish White Crab Meat-locally sourced, Pumpkin & Sage Ravioli, Butter Greens with Grana Padano Cheese and Chocolate Clementine Tort. All the food was prepared fresh, served at proper temperatures and mouth-watering delicious. The restaurant deserves a fantastic separate review, as the food was impeccable and satisfying, served by Jeevan who was courteous, attentive and friendly, and the meal came without sticker shock from being overcharged. Breakfast was also good, offering a large variety, something for everyone. I especially loved the yogurt and muesli, coffee machine, fruits and pastries with variety of jams. We LOVED everything about this hotel, even down to every detail, like how they saved us a parking spot on our 2nd night, knowing we were out late exploring Isle of Skye! Words alone can not express how WONDERFUL this property location was, while the employees were so kind and helpful. We will visit here again!!"

"I used the kitchen and it was clean and had what I needed. Rooms were clean and comfortable. Staff were friendly and helpful. "

"We absolutely loved our stay at the Marmalade and wished we had more time to stay even longer. The food in the restaurant was some of the best we had on our 3-week trip, the views are incredible, beds comfortable, and facilities / grounds very clean and beautiful. 10/10 highly recommend!"

"Amazing unique experience, can not recommend enough. Food was amazing, location stellar, close to town."

"Nice hotel. Very close to the Isle of Skye. Good breakfast with great view."

"Quiet location. Clean home."

"Parking was no problem, place was clean and tidy, No staff available to speak to only by phone if you have any issues, breakfast was simple no frills"

"The perfect base camp on Skye. Exactly what we wanted for our stay. Walking distance to the Fairy Glen, RHA falls, and the port as well as a quick drive into Portree if you want to go into actual town. Not to mention the stunning view from our room. The staff is amazingly helpful and I can’t say enough good things about the restaurant."

"Very old and tired hotel. Beds were hard, pillows were flat. Amenities were few. Breakfast was good. But for the price you are paying, it was not good value."
