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.

We had a wonderful view from our room once the weather cleared up. Dinner reservations book up fast so I recommend booking in advance if you plan to have dinner there. The pub that is attached to the hotel was great. All staff were very friendly and helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay there and wouldn’t hesitate to return.

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.

Emily, Ava and Amy were wonderful. Their smiles and cheerfulness brightened our stay. We dined in the restaurant for both breakfast and dinner each day. The food and service were amazing! We were a bit confused when arriving about where to check in and went to the bar. The nice gentleman in the bar helped us find our way. Staying here was a wonderful experience and a lovely part of our vacation. We hope to stay there again.

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.
