We stayed a couple of nights in Portree and based ourselves to see the Isle of Skye. Staff were friendly and helpful in providing information we needed as our car needed some mechanical repairs. A central area to see all the sights of the Isle of Skye being within about 1 hours distance. We dined in the restaurant of the... More

This hotel is in the city center of Portree, and just steps from the bus stop. My family and I had two rooms there for our stay and we cannot recommend it highly enough. The staff were wonderful! So friendly and helpful, and full of suggestions of things to do/places to eat while we spent our 3 days on Skye.... More

Bedrooms are spotless - with everything you need. Good sized ensuite. We paid £80 per night for the double room and £110 per night for family room. We had evening meals in the restaurant on two occasions over the weekend and the food was excellent - averaging £20 per head and that included 2 courses and a drink. The stairs... More

Staff extremely helpful and welcoming, nothing was a problem. Don't go by the photos on their website on what the rooms are like, as the pics are not very flattering, but the rooms are actually not too bad. Just don't expect the ritz. The food here is excellent, and they have a great locals bar. As the hotel is right... More

Portree is well positioned in the middle of Skye as a great touring base. The staff at the Caledonian are welcoming and friendly. Breakfast and dinner very good and the room comfortable. We were given good tips about touring the isle and places to visit. Recommend the Talisker distillery tour. Even if you are not a whisky fan it is... More

Fantastic staff, all very friendly and helpful. Double room was clean and comfortable. Price was very reasonable. Food was excellent. Great atmosphere. The free car park was handy as the hotel is in the town centre. We will definitely stay again if we return to Skye.

My first visit to Portree and Isle of Skye and am already planning a return visit. The Caley hotel was one of the most comfortable and clean hotels I have stayed in. When informed the room we had was due to be renovated I couldn't believe this as bedroom and en-suite were clean, tidy and modern. Shower was excellent -... More

I booked into this hotel last minute due to travel disruptions. I wasn't sure what to expect but was pleasantly surprised. The hotel is in Portree town centre but is set back from the main road, so you dont have to worry about noise. Checking in was fast and easy. The room was clean and comfortable and the staff were...
