I booked by telephone months ahead and asked for the nicest room with the best view. The view was great but it was from a small window in a narrow dormer. Our room (number 7) on the 3rd floor was tiny so that it was difficult for 2 people to move about. The bathroom was updated and spacious. The mattress... more

On Bosville Terrace - walk out of the front door of Coolin View and you're in the centre of Portree in under a minute. The rooms are a little "compact" because of this, although the bathroom was lovely with underfloor heating. They also claim to have free WiFi available, although this didn't work for me. I had a mobile connection... more

Everything was clean, the location perfect & the breakfast, morning cook and server was lovely. But the couple who worked in the evening,, wouldn't let us into the parlor, saying they didn't have any other place to relax, so we had to stay in our room or sit in dining room. They didn't stay on-site, no one was there 24... more

Pretty standard B&B in Portree. They were on Expedia, and that’s how I booked. Had a single room on the first floor which was clean and had all the facilities I’d expect. Crucially it was warm and dry on a day and evening when the elements were pounding the North West coast of Scotland. The room itself was a little... more

I stayed in this hotel as recommended by Rabbie's Trailburners as part of my scotland tour, as well as some of the previous reviews. The welcome was warm and got help with my bags up to my room. What can I say about the room? - small, shower in the room which i found unusual and no view. Overall, the... more

Having read the reviews we thought Coolin View sounded good. What a disappointment. The rooms were small, especially room 2. There were 4 of us, 2 couples, and when I phoned to book I was told one did not have a harbour view. This was ok. I said we would have that room and our friends from Canada could have... more

Denise and Trevor and their parents were splendid hosts. The facilities were excellent. We struck gold compared to the rest of our Tour Group. Denise cooked tea for us with no notice on the second evening when the town was booked out. Lovely Breakfasts. Great Harbour views to remind us of home. Denise took time out to explain the history... more

The room and breakfast were fine, but experience of other local B&Bs showed that this place is overpriced. You can get comparable accomodation for quite a bit less. Saying that the harbour side location is excellent, and access to the pubs and restaurants of Portree is 2 minutes walk away. more

As said before the rooms were quite small, but at least clean. The owner was not very welcoming when we first arrived and frankly was quite off putting. Breakfast was adequate but nothing to write home about. Would not be rushing back. Not good value for money. more

Chosen for previous positive reviews. Nice position, looking over the harbour. Our twin-bedded room on the first floor had the same view. Pleasant and friendly owners. Breakfast was a little tired, probably because we were one of the last to eat. We ate the evening before at the Harbour View Restaurant, just along the street. Good. more
