This was a nice quaint Inn off the beaten path in Portree. One note- although free parking, many potholes in the parking lot. Bed was comfortable but only double beds and room and bathroom was small. Dining hall and living room combined was nice. We had breakfast which was yummy, porridge with berries was yummy and eggs and bacon were delicious excellent. Nothing fancy though so plan for coffee and tea- no cappuccino or latte. We loved the teas in our room, the highland cow pillows and all the old fashion horse pictures! Would recommend a stay but maybe bring early plugs bc walls are thin and get 2 rooms!

Giedre

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Very overpriced, and even at half the cost it wouldn’t be worth it. We paid nearly $400 USD for one night - far more than the Marriott we stayed at the night before - yet the quality was nowhere close. The property feels outdated, the air is stuffy, and the walls are so thin you can hear conversations (and even breathing) from the next room. The shower was tiny, the staff seemed to avoid eye contact rather than offer service, and the food was average at best. No air conditioning either. Overall, it feels like the hotel mainly caters to large bus groups. Definitely would not stay here again.

The place is beautifully maintained and perfect for a comfortable stay in Portree. The real highlight is the incredibly friendly and helpful staff. The breakfast is truly excellent. And if you’re lucky, you might even spot the hotel’s beloved cat wandering through the lobby.

I had a fantastic stay at Skye Inn! The place has a really cosy and welcoming atmosphere. The staff were outstanding—friendly, attentive, and always happy to help with anything we needed. The breakfast was excellent, with a great selection of fresh and tasty options to start the day. The location is also a big plus—just a short and easy walk to the town centre and harbour, making it perfect for exploring Inverness. The only minor downside is that the rooms are a bit small And less utilities.

Nice place for a few nights the only thought I have is it would be good to have a small fridge in the room. The drive way could do with a bit attention the pot holes were ferocious. The rooms were warm and comfortable the staff frendly and helpful
