Lovely hotel - photos & description are an accurate depiction. Central location for shops, restaurants & convenient walking distance from the railway station. Very comfortable double-room with modern bathroom & shower mixer tap operation that was so simple & not the typical, usual UK 'adventure of discovery' ! As my husband & I are in our ‘senior’ years, I requested if possible, a room on the ground floor - being from Australia & travelling for 2 & a half months, our suitcases were a little heavier than normal (!) & having to negotiate stairs somewhat of a challenge !!! Happily my request was promptly answered & able to be met with a guarantee that we'd be accommodated in a ground floor room - I /we sincerely appreciated this consideration. Both upon check-in & check-out the following day, we were welcomed & farewelled by very efficient, professional members of reception staff. We enjoyed a lovely meal & drink in the bar in the evening on the night of our arrival & a hearty breakfast the following morning. We highly recommended this hotel to future guests.

The room was compact but this had been indicated in the information so was not a surprise. It contained everything necessary. There were some instructions regarding parking however this was not problem.

Relatively expensive compared to other accommodation booked...
Relatively expensive compared to other accommodation booked for our 12 day trip. Hotel felt a bit tired and dated. No hairdryer in room and ironing board provided was faulty. Bed was ok but moved too easily if pressed onto. Restaurant was full when we arrived at 7pm, so ate in the bar. Food was ok, but nothing to write home about and adequate selection. Would select another option for a future trip.

Wonderful views.
Wonderful views. Fishing boats moving across the water very restful. Bus near station only a few minutes away from Bothy, takes an hour to Portree on Skye. Train to Plockton 19 minutes. Wish we had had time for the boat trip from Kyle harbour. Hector's Bothy cafe often bustling, Pizza Mia freshly made carry outs good (haggis and red onion topping), Cafe opposite traffic lights friendly and welcoming. Very well stocked Co-op. Train journey to Kyle glorious, but a car might be better for exploring (good parking next to flat.)

Fabulous location, lovely room.
Fabulous location, lovely room. Evening bar and restaurant excellent.
Evening staff excellent
Breakfast - not good for the price of hotel, stern unhelpful staff member. Had to ask for water in the tea urn, wouldn’t serve hot porridge and then the hot breakfast later. ( you could only have it all served together) so you choose which went cold, your porridge or your cooked breakfast.

We would have stayed longer had we known about it and used it as a base for Skye as the hotel we headed to was extremely expensive and compared to this hotel and the staff here we knew we were getting ripped off. Balmacara is lovely and we would go back in a heartbeat.

Rooms were functional and compact. Over priced for what you get. Although, location was good for visit to Skye.
Breakfast was an additional £15, we opted out and went to a cafe just minutes from the hotel, had a lovely breakfast for a fraction of the price.

The house was a great location for visiting Skye.
The house was a great location for visiting Skye. We didn't actually explore much of Kyle of Lochalsh. Didn't seem too many option for eating out at night, but that didn't matter to us as we cooked or were out on Skye. Big supermarket in Kyle of Lochash and a couple of takeaway options.

The location was perfect, even without a car. A nice 40 mins leisurely stroll into Kyle of Lochalsh to catch the 917 bus to Portree, Skye. Erubsaig is a beautiful, picturesque and tranquil village. Lots of beautiful walks nearby. Kate and Roy are fantastic hosts, I felt at home. My twin room was clean and quiet with awesome seaview. Breakfast was healthy and fresh. I'll be back soon!
The hosts were very helpful and allowed us to leave our cases at the hotel before check-in time. They were also very helpful and allowing us to eat our takeaway fish and chips in the hotel bar as there were no restaurants nearby, Our hosts provided us with plates and cutlery for our takeaway meal. There was a jolly atmosphere in the hotel bar.
Lots of breakfast options, buffet or ordered hot breakfast options. Dinner was delicious and the view from the dining room over the loch is terrific. We had a travel incident going on that was very stressful, but the hotel staff did their best to assist in helping us sort things as well as they could have. Was thankful for their assistance.
Warmest welcome from the lovely couple who run the hotel. Tasty breakfast, great location, clean and spacious room which was lovely and warm on arrival. Plenty of hot water. Can't recommend this place enough. We even enjoyed singing abs playing a song or two on the in house guitar! Great place with superb hospitality. Top top !
Wonderful classic hotel, with big rooms freshly decorated, amazing views, friendliest host ever. Super comfy beds. A great place to base yourself for touring around Skye and the Kyle of Lochalsh.
Safe and plentiful parking, if like us you are on a motorbike. Super breakfast. Will definitely return.
Everything !! An extremely well designed B&B, from the large bathroom to the spacious living room and dining area. Catriona & Andrew are excellent host, serving up an outstanding breakfast. Should my travels again bring me to this part of Scotland, Ardenlea will be my first choice for lodging.
Staff, room, facilities and breakfast were good but over-priced for what was provided. It was the most expensive and possibly smallest room in our travels from Shap, Arrochar, Kyle of Lochalsh, Nairn, Elgin and Cumberland.
Really nice b&b with a beautiful little garden. Great breakfast. Shelagh makes you feel right at home! Hospitality could not have been any better. Kyle of Lochalsh is a cosy little place, close enough to the Isle of Skye.
Self catering establishment. Clean and equipped as such. Interesting art and homely touches. Bedding and towels clean and plenty of it. Dry close to takeaways and short walk to supermarkets.
Great location just along the loch from Eilean Donan castle and handy for Skye. A delightful old hotel with quirky staircases and corridors. Modern breakfast room and comfortable lounges.
Great location! Warm, cosy and clean house. Perfect for exploring the area and Isle of Skye. Easy to find and park in. Great facilities, everything you need for self catering.
