We had a great time at this hotel. Stayed in one of the new rooms and it was fantastic. Really well thought of with everything in it you would need, we could even lie in bed looking at the view of the hills!! We ate in the dining room on both nights and I have to say that the food... more

Stayed here last weekend again and again had a lovely time. Nice room at the front with views across the bay. Staff were attentive and very friendly. However, we felt standards had slipped slightly with regard to waiting staff in the dining room. Also the WiFi was not working and as I was there on business this was a bit... more

Excellent food, service and elegant setting. We stayed at another hotel but dined here - too bad we didn't stay as well. Well worth the price. more

This was a surprise for my birthday from my husband and the whole experience was absolutely memorable. We arrived to freindly staff and a welcoming, comfortable, clean room. The food was first class and the service was fantastic. In particular the head waiter managed to pitch his attention just right, neither over fussy, but obviously in control. They were extremely... more

My wife and I are regular visitors to this hotel and we love it so much we even got married here. This year, we opted for their Christmas package and it was excellent. It's like a home from home for us, the staff are always welcoming and friendly but never intrusive. LOCATION - Cannot be faulted, lovely view toward the... more

First, the good bits. The location is superb with stunning views over the water. The rooms are comfortable and spacious. The food is pretty good too. If only they were content with just being a comfy, relaxing hotel. But no, they've gone and ruined it all by trying to be posh! With its twee Scottish decor and Celtic elevator music... more

The Cuillin Hills has a superb location. It overlooks Portree Bay and is just a few minutes walk to the centre of Portree. We had a four-poster room which looked out across the Bay which was very relaxing. The public rooms also have areas overlooking the bay . The check-in at the hotel is efficient and you are given assistance... more

Well, actually there is. The view from the front lawn of the Cuillin Hills and Portree harbour is absolutely breathtaking. But what about the hotel itself? I see other reviews are quite generous so let me hasten to add that we had no complaints, nobody was rude, staff were helpful, nothing was broken or dirty and the rooms were comfortable... more
