Have just returned from a three night stay in the Mackinnon House Hotel. We were disappointed with the stay as there was little heating in the hotel. The hotel was conyinually cold with no heating in the dining room. The menu presented was not as shown on their web site. A plus side was that the hotel was well decorated.... more

Only went here for dinner but what a great place to eat. The food was 1st class and presentation was a picture. Ian the owner/chef even took time to come and speak to us as we where leaving even though they where very busy. We even over heard the next table passing comment on the presentation as it was not... more

Stayed here as part of a tour group. Ian and his wife gave us a warm welcome and wonderful dinners. We had a room in the carriage house in back of the main hotel, and actually had three real beds for three people! This is a family friendly place, complete with a charming honesty bar and a loving family dog.... more

This hotel really is a hidden gem. We were touring so could only stay one night but I will certainly be back. Lovely hotel, nice rooms, great common areas and the best bit was the food! The staff are also very good and pleasant. The owner is the chef and the food really is to die for. It was certainly... more

My daughter of 3 and I flew up to Inverness from East Midlands and made the two hour journey by car to Skye. Stunning scenery on the way and well worth a stop off to see the Eilean Donan Castle, about 9 miles before you hit Kyle of Lochalsh. Mackinnon House Hotel is very comfortable, and the room we had... more

Arrived at hotel around 2pm and was greeted by Ian who I found to be a very sweet and cheerful man. He explaned that breakfast stopped at 9.30am or 9.00 I cant remember now and explained about the honesty bar where you could help yourself to what you wanted and was trusted to note down the drinks on a sheet... more

Upon arrival we were told that the chef was sick and the hotel would not be providing any evening meals. We therefore had to get back in the car and try to find a restaurant. Not so easy in this town so best to go back over the bridge to Kyle of Localsh. During the evening we saw four/five members... more

Our stay at MacKinnon House was wonderful. Our host, Ian, was an extremly warm and welcoming person. We particularly enjoyed our conversation with him in the hotel's cozy pub. The rooms in the lodge were some of the largest we experienced on our trip, and were very nicely done. Light pine trim in the rooms as well as in the... more

My two night stay at the Mackinnon House was part of a tour of the West Coast of Scotland. I enjoyed the friendly atmosphere - pre dinner drinks by the cosy fire in the lounge, personal recommendations about food from the chef, a chat with our host and hostess. The food was excellent and fairly priced. My room was spacious... more
