Top Lochgair Hotel Reviews

St Ives Boutique Hotel

St Ives Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Nice family-run small hotel. Old but renovated. Very friendly and helpful owners. Relaxed and casual atmosphere. Great view of the water from our room and from the bar/breafast room. Guests may need to walk up a few flights of stairs. Bathroom was small, but that is expected in these old hotels and guest houses. Room and bathroom were clean. Served an excellent breakfast, with interesting selections. Free parking. But note: your car GPS may (will) send in you circles trying to find the actual car park in front of the hotel. Fortunately, the owners send personalized instructions on finding the actual road to take."

"Our room was very warm. Heater was on when we arrived. Turned it off & opened windows but it took a couple hours to cool room down. Table fan helped. Pictures of bathrooms in website showed that there were very spacious. But in fact our bathroom quite small. The hotel is about a 10 minute walk into town. Overall the hotel was pleasant & staff very accommodating. Breakfast was plentiful & good."
