I mistakenly booked this hotel instead of Tarbert on Harris. I called to inform the hotel on the arrival date, and they refused to refund either of the two nighrs I'd paid for.

While we were very happy with the accommodations, the clear high points of our short stay were the "above and beyond" helpfulness of the staff and the excellent restaurant and breakfast offerings (on our 1st evening in Scotland we were pleased to enjoy wonderful fish dishes &, of course, Haggis!!!).

Tarbert is such a sweet little town. The castle ruins were magical. The hotel itself - very convenient, easy parking, incredibly nice and very hardworking staff. The meals were SUPERB! The room was in good condition. The bed was a bit on the soft and saggy side. Great view though over the water. Hallways are clearly under ongoing repairs. The dinner dining area is quite nice. Breakfast area could use a refresh (especially that first booth seat). Overall, the Anchor Hotel was a great 2 night stop off for us. Thus has been a magical trip overall and the Anchor Hotel was a delightful find along the way!

Overnight stay

This is a nice hotel in the perfect location for Tarbert, on the harbour. The room was comfortable and the staff very friendly and helpful. Even if you do not stay in the hotel, try the restaurant as the food was excellent.

Staff was courteous and very friendly, dining at the hotel restaurant was outstanding! Great experience all the way around. Tarbert itself was a gem and was not there to take a ferry, visited to experience something different / unique.

Great little hotel with superb restaurant

Great location with easy on road parking outside. Smooth check in, receptionist very helpful. Modern, clean room. Exceptional dinner in on site restaurant. Good breakfast included. Only let down by repair issues in bathroom, crack in sink, shower needs re sealing, rusty heated towel rail, and rusty toilet brush holder.

We had a harbour view now normally we wouldn’t bother about a sea/harbour view that changes with a view over Tarbert harbour on a still sunny day and clear night , fabulous watching both the boats in and out and the wildlife

There were a handful of broken things in the hotel room, dents in the walls, there were no plugs by the bed and there was no mirror outside the bathroom making doing my hair difficult. That said, the mattress was very comfortable the shower was very good and the location was perfect for me.
