We never had an ocean view room, but our room was so cute and cozy, I felt like I was in a bedroom of a house rather than a hotel room. We loved it. Bed is super soft and cozy. We had some great sleeps. Easily walkable to the shops/food/ grocery. Would stay here again. Loved it.

The room, though small, was fine for my purposes. While it really wasn’t a concern, and probably due to my ineptitude, I couldn’t get the television to work properly. But great location within a couple of minutes walk to downtown Portree and the wonderful restaurants therein.

My room had the best view. Literally a view of the harbour, it was fantastic to wake up to. My bed was comfortable, the room was very clean and warm. 👍 It’s a great location, I had no issues parking. Locals are friendly and there’s plenty of places to eat in the area.

This was the perfect place to stay in Skye , the room was spotless and up to a very high standard with a view that must be one of the best in Skye , check in and out was as easy you could want with a free parking space provided, I would give it a 10 .

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here for new year's. Self check-in and out was very simple. The staff were really lovely, helpful and down for a chat. The view from our window was magnificent, overlooking the bay. The perfect home base for our explorations on Isle of Skye. The only thing that would improve the experience would be a mini fridge to keep groceries and milk fresh. Although mini fridges seem to be more common in Australian accommodation, as I haven't had one anywhere we have stayed in the UK.

Our room was small, but clean and perfect for two people. The room we had had a full size bed and two bunkbeds. It would be Extremely cozy with four people. Parking was available across the street. If that was full, the offsite parking was just a 5 to 8 minute walk back to your hotel.

Two nights in Portree by myself

I stayed in a single room. It was clean, comfortable and warm. It was quite compact but fine for one person. Tea and coffee making facilities were in the room and a TV. The bathroom was clean and it had a good shower. The location is brilliant with a lovely view down over the harbour, though my room didn't have a view. There are loads of places to eat. Communication was excellent including checking that everything was ok, and informing me of a planned power outage by the electricity company. I'd be happy to stay there again.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We had a tiny room which has seen better days, and the bathroom was so small that it lacked a separate sink. The sink was on top of the toilet cistern, something we'd never seen before - not easy or pleasant to use. There was no staff on site. No breakfast. Very expensive for what it is. The kindest thing I can say is that it is in an excellent location. Someone is making a fortune out of very sub-standard accommodatoin.

The room we were allocated by Expedia should be for single occupation only as a double bed in a room 3 metres square left no space for basic furniture such as a chest of drawers or a chair. The bathroom was no bigger than a broom cupboard and the wash basin was built into the top of the lavatory cistern and useless. The heated towel rail was hanging off the wall and unsafe to use.

We really enjoyed being able to stay as part of the community and not in a big box hotel. Our room was as advertised and had a beautiful view of the harbour. There was ample storage with the deep window well and the closet. The washroom was quite clean--just those corners that can only be seen from inside the shower seem to be missed (as was mentioned in other reviews). The bed and linens were very comfortable and furniture was lovely (seemed newer and fit the space well) The carpeting in the room needs to be changed, as does the carpeting in the common areas, however it seemed as clean as it could be. Parking was easy and on the night we missed a space we found one on the side street without issue. We really enjoyed being able to walk to cafes, restaurants, pubs, and shops once we were parked for the night. I noticed the fresh flowers in the entrance--that was a nice touch. Check in and out was easy--and the cleaners we bumped into seemed friendly and professional. We would certainly consider this location if we return to Portree.

Poor unmanned operation with alarm, parking issues

We did not know this is un-attended studio rooms. When we arrived, there was unnamed envelope left without our name on it, and, anyone could have grabbed the keys and security could have been breached. The room did not have any surface to place our stuff or any chair to sit on. The ambiguous wording of the steam from the shower triggering the smoke detector right 2 feet away from the bathroom door was true. Some insensitive guests set off the alarm at around 6 am. And, even before that the creaking floor sound upstairs already woke us up. Zero-interaction and zero-responsible staff. The parking was nothing but a sidewalk, too shallow to park a small SUV, and the hotel had put bins in the parking space to make our parking impossible. And, they were all on the blind curve road with lots of risk. NO clear direction to the City Car Park given at all. Very stingy, and, amateurish operation. Overpriced for what you get. Barebones all the way. We felt deceived.
Very restricted shallow parking space, exposed to the traffic on the blinded curve road, also shoved with the trash bins, impossible to open the vehicle door,
No seating or surface to put anything. No closet but hangers above the kettle
Smoke detector, too close to the bathroom shower, the window inoperable to vent the steam out. 6 am alarm went off by someone upstairs
Unnamed guestroom and building keys were left without any instruction sent to us in the email. Anyone could pick them up. A big security issue.
